We have published JFE Steel's case study on "Streamlining In-House Seismic Intensity Reporting and Accelerating Initial Response After an Earthquake" in the customer case section.

Automation of situation reporting in IoT earthquake observation services enables rapid initial response.

**Overview** - **Purpose:** To streamline the situation reporting process during earthquakes - **Category:** IoT Earthquake Observation Service - **Related Products:** IoT Earthquake Observation Service - **Scope of Provision:** Complete set of equipment, implementation support, operational support, service provision **Background and Challenges** JFE Steel Corporation's East Japan Works (Chiba Area) covers an area of approximately 7.65 million m² (equivalent to about 165 Tokyo Domes) and employs around 11,000 people, including group and partner companies. In the Chiba area, multiple seismometers were installed throughout the factory to implement initial response measures as defined for each seismic intensity. However, traditional seismometers required manual data verification on-site, resulting in a reporting time of about 20 minutes. **Effects After Implementation** The verification of earthquakes on-site and the email reporting process have been automated, leading to improved operational efficiency. In particular, the time required for internal situation reporting has been reduced, enabling immediate responses to damage assessments, operational adjustments, and requests for support to other areas. Additionally, employees who were previously involved in this task can now focus on other responses immediately after an earthquake occurs.

**Improvement of Spoofing Prevention Accuracy and Performance** With FaceMe SDK 7.8, we enhance measures against increasingly sophisticated spoofing attacks by improving authentication accuracy and processing speed, thereby increasing the safety and reliability of facial recognition. - IR + RGB Spoofing Prevention: Detection accuracy improved by up to 35%, processing speed improved by up to 15% - 3D Spoofing Prevention: Detection accuracy improved by up to 56.8% for Intel RealSense D415 **Reducing Development Burden with the New Integrated API "FaceMe Authenticator"** We have integrated multiple processes that previously required individual implementation into a single API. Integrated Functions: - Face Detection + Feature Point Extraction + Spoofing Prevention + Authentication Processing Features: - Compatible with Windows / Ubuntu x64 / Android - 2D cameras, 3D depth cameras, and IR + RGB cameras can be used through a single interface - Significantly reduces development burden while maintaining high-accuracy authentication

Crittec Industries Co., Ltd. published a newspaper advertisement (black and white, full-page 15 columns) for the bridge expansion device "Hybrid Joint" in the February 26, 2026 issue of the Sankei Shimbun Tohoku 6 Prefectures edition. In Japan, the number of bridges over 50 years old is rapidly increasing, making the longevity of bridges a critical issue. The expansion devices, which are considered a cause of bridge damage, require high water-tightness and long-term durability. Our expansion device "Hybrid Joint" offers multiple types tailored to different bridge types and conditions. Among them, the "Hybrid Joint 3LII type" has demonstrated a durability of 100 years in fatigue loading tests conducted by a third-party organization. It has successfully passed 12 million cycles of repeated loading at a maximum load of 260 kN, confirming performance equivalent to a 100-year design service life for bridges. We have numerous delivery records in the six Tohoku prefectures and can accommodate a wide range of bridge types, including steel and PC bridges. The special website linked to the advertisement allows for the review of detailed materials and inquiries or requests for documents. Please make use of it for comparing and considering bridge renewal and repair plans. Crittec Industries will continue to contribute to the longevity of bridges nationwide, starting with the Tohoku region.
