Kaori Okamoto, head of the department in charge of medical system improvement, plans to expand the program by gaining expertise in its operation. The metropolitan government has earmarked 6.5 billion yen in its fiscal 2020 supplementary budget to cover the cost of renting these hotels, disinfecting them, paying for meals and dispatching medical personnel.

        Toyoda compared the economic impact of the new Corona to the 2008 Lehman shock, saying, "This time, the financial system is relatively sound. But in the Lehman Shock, China was the driving force, supporting the global car market. This time, the impact has spread to the whole world and we cannot expect it to support the market. On the other hand, regarding the current state of the supply chain (parts supply network), he said, "The Great East Japan Earthquake has made us realize how the supply chain is designed to meet Chinese demand, rather than bringing (parts) from China. In general, since the collapse of Lehman Brothers and the Great East Japan Earthquake, production and procurement of parts where they can be sold has progressed one step further than at that time," he said.

          The connected sensors acquire analog data such as temperature, pressure, water level and flow rate as well as vibration. The data is sent via wireless LAN to an antenna several dozen meters away. The data is collected in the "Machine Dossier" cloud system. The data is displayed in an easy-to-understand manner using graphs and other data. Amazon's Amazon Web Services (AWS) is used as the system infrastructure. The data can be easily viewed on smartphones and other devices. The annual fee for using the system is 48,000 yen (excluding consumption tax) for each eight-point sensor. SEC of America (North Carolina), a wholly owned subsidiary in the U.S., develops and produces the system. Shinkawa Sensor Technology (Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo), a subsidiary in Japan, will develop and produce higher-specification non-contact vibration sensors.

            Taking a hint from the fact that insects find flowers by the wavelength and light intensity of sunlight, the company has developed an "insect eye sensor" that tracks sunlight. It efficiently collects sunlight. The six optical fibers can be extended up to one kilometer and can illuminate 500 square meters. It is about 2 meters long, 2 meters wide and 2.5 meters high. The price starts at 5 million yen (excluding consumption tax). It has been used in buildings and train stations in Kumamoto Prefecture, and its sales have been about 100 million yen. It can also be used to cut infrared rays and ultraviolet rays. The company is currently producing them overseas, but will switch to domestic production within this year. The price will start at 250,000 yen (same as above). "The market for solar concentrators is worth about 20 billion yen. President Yokozawa hopes to capture a 20% share of this market.

              University of Electro-Communications and Obayashi Corporation's diagnostic device for correcting blurred images

              Associate Professor Norihiro Koizumi of the University of Electro-Communications and Obayashi Corporation (Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo) have developed a device that uses artificial intelligence (AI) and robotic technology to correct blurring caused by the movement of organs and assist in taking clear images using ultrasound. It is expected that Obayashi Corporation will start selling this device in April 2022 at a price of tens of millions of yen, for use as a supplement to ultrasound diagnostic equipment. In the future, it is envisioned that cancer treatment using radiation or heavy particle beams will be carried out while observing in real time. It is expected that by obtaining images that pinpoint the location of organs, the beam can be accurately irradiated to the affected area.
