These technologies are currently being used for the Aerospace, Smart Buildings, and Regional Information service fields:

Aerospace: Quasi-Zenith Satellite System, “Michibiki”
This is a highly accurate satellite positioning technology with centimeter-level augmentation.
Smart Buildings: They can utilize these applications of positioning information.
Regional Information Platform: Our platform, “kokosil,” applies location information.

The sessions introduced here will be conducted in Japanese. You can find other sessions with simultaneous translation in English on the “2021 TRON Symposium -TRONSHOW-” website.

The Culture Information Platform is an online platform that compiles culture programs across Japan, launched in May 2017. This is the program established by Agency of Cultural Affairs Government of Japan to assemble all national cultural information to transmit globally and to energize all forms of Japanese culture toward 2020 Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games with the ultimate goal of Japan to be a nation that will thrive on its art and culture. The assembled culture programs are introduced in the portal site “Culture NIPPON (culture-nippon.go.jp)”. Ubiquitous Computing Technology Corporation assists Agency of Cultural Affairs for the deployment and the maintenance of the platform and the portal site.

The platform is approached by Dr. Ken Sakamura, the former professor of the University of Tokyo and currently Dean of the Faculty of Information Networking for Innovation and Design at Toyo University, Japan and Director of YRP Ubiquitous Networking Laboratory. The platform uses a cloud information system to assemble the large volume and all forms of Japanese culture information, which can be transmitted as open-data if the registrants prefer for their activity to be widely recognized. This approach can help various Japanese culture events to be known not only globally but domestically, as well as supporting the ultimate goal of the Agency.

Currently small to large organizations are actively registering their culture event information in the Culture Information Platform. Ubiquitous Computing Technology continues to assist the Agency to realize its goal and support any organizations which wish to register their culture events.

kokosil

kokosil^［３］ is a platform service which provides the information via smartphone apps and/or websites on tourist spots, towns, commercial facilities, museums, art museums, etc. which are collectively described as “town” (region).

Services are built for and operated by each town (region) so that this service can help the region to provide detailed information special to it ( e.g., tourist spot, town, or museum).
Ubiquitous Computing Technology Corporation has been promoting the adoption and deployment of kokosil platform so that it can provide information such as tourist information of each region. “kokosil” smartphone app can be used in the regions, museums, etc. where the service is operated by using kokosil platform. Users can download “kokosil” app and select the services of each region and facility on the region selection screen (kokosil select).

   UCT offers “kokosil” that provides information on tourist spots and towns, and solutions for the IoT (Internet of Things) and M2M fields applying ubiquitous computing technology.
   We also provide various technologies and services applicable to basic embedded systems to system integration and content creation.

2. The Hundred Views of Shinagawa
   For selecting the spots, the aspects of “lifestyle,” “history” and “climate” of “Our Town Shinagawa” were nominated by the citizens of Shinagawa, and the popular ones were adopted by vote in 1987. In the same year, the 40th anniversary of the municipal government and the fifth anniversary of the establishment of the citizen charter were commemorated. In 2017, 30 years after the original selection, “The Hundred Views of Shinagawa” were updated by adding the sceneries that appeared in the last 30 years.
