Acquired VE through NETIS registration! A simple spraying method framework aimed at creating green slopes and disaster prevention, preventing washout and surface erosion of slopes and embankments, and preventing surface peeling!

The Easy Shelf Method is a simplified spraying framework that can be adopted when it is determined that the conventional site-sprayed framework standards are excessive. It is positioned as a greening foundation work, preventing erosion and surface washout on slopes and embankments, as well as stabilizing the base material. We have recently obtained VE certification from NETIS. (NETIS number: KK-160021-VE) The Easy Shelf Method features a framework that is flexible and easy to construct, allowing for the preservation and restoration of green spaces. The benefits of retaining trees include environmental conservation and the reinforcement effect of tree roots, which can also help prevent avalanches. It is advisable to keep trees such as oaks, chestnuts, and beeches, while it is better to cut down planted cedars, dead trees, and trees with poor vitality. A significant feature is that the framework is a site-cast sprayed framework, using only rebar and metal fasteners (glass stands) for the framework structure, which improves workability and shortens construction time compared to conventional spraying frameworks. 【Features of Glass Stand】 - The punched steel plate structure is strong against deformation from external forces. - Reduces the occurrence of cracks after spraying. - The abundance of openings and cuts eliminates mortar edge separation, making it easy to bind and enhancing workability. - Can be stacked for easy transportation.

The Easy Shelf Method for simple spraying can be utilized as a countermeasure against the frequent short-duration heavy rains occurring recently!

The Easy Shelf Method, promoted by the National Slope Disaster Prevention Association, which is managed by K.F. Corporation, can be utilized as a countermeasure against the recent frequent short-duration heavy rains! 【Countermeasure Situations】 1. As a countermeasure against erosion and collapse of slopes due to surface water: Easy Shelf Method + Vegetation within the frame 2. As a countermeasure against sliding collapse due to infiltrating water: Easy Shelf Method + Mortar spraying within the frame 【Comparison with Precast Grid Frames】 1. All beams are continuous, increasing resistance to ground collapse. 2. Surface water can be smoothly drained. 3. It is closely attached to the ground, making it less susceptible to erosion. 4. It is expected to have a suppressive effect on surface collapse.

Due to its steel plate punching structure, it is strong against deformation caused by external forces and exhibits extremely high holding capacity in relation to the rebar position! *It will be exhibited at the Wakayama Prefecture Kensanpin.

The "Easy Shelf Method Sanbo Type" uses three rebar. It's called "Sanbo" because it has three bars. The Easy Shelf Method Sanbo is designed with a punched steel plate structure, making it strong against deformation from external forces and exhibiting an extremely high holding capacity in relation to the specified rebar positions. It can be stacked for easy transport, which also enhances work efficiency!

NETIS Registration Number: KK-160021-VE **Features of the Easy Shelf Method Power Stand:** 1. The punched steel plate structure is designed to be strong against deformation from external forces, exhibiting an extremely high holding capacity relative to the specified rebar positions in the design. 2. It can be stacked for easy transport, enhancing work efficiency. **Features of the Easy Shelf Method Glass Stand:** 1. The glass stand, with its punched steel plate structure, is strong against deformation from external forces and demonstrates an extremely high holding capacity relative to the specified rebar positions in the design. 2. The outer dimensions of the glass stand are designed to ensure a cover of 40 mm at all points relative to the finished shape, helping to reduce the occurrence of cracks after spraying. 3. The glass stand features numerous openings and cuts that eliminate mortar edge cutting and facilitate easy binding, resulting in excellent workability. The glass stand can be stacked, making it easy to transport.

Hotron Inc. has launched its new product, the "Vehicle Count Sensor CCS3"! This product is a ceiling-mounted sensor that combines infrared and radar technology. It reliably detects vehicles in both directions with a single unit, accommodating traffic during congestion and vehicle passing, thus achieving efficient occupancy management in large parking lots. Additionally, it can be utilized for exit warning purposes in addition to vehicle counting, contributing to the safe and smooth operation of parking facilities. 'Features' - Improved detection performance against changes in road surface during rainy weather by using both infrared and radar. - Equipped with IP67 waterproof and dustproof performance, making it effective even in salt damage areas. - Various settings can be configured from a dedicated app (for Android devices), with current settings easily visible at a glance. - The base dimensions are the same as the previous model "CCS2," allowing for smooth replacement of existing equipment. *For more details, please refer to the product information, catalog download, or contact us.*

We have released a "trial version app (browser version)" that allows you to freely test the "blinking detection technology" developed using joint patent technology with Panasonic, directly in your browser. No application, installation, or membership registration is required. It measures blinking for 30 seconds using your PC's built-in camera or your smartphone's camera, displaying the number of blinks, the rate per minute, the duration of closed eyes (average and longest), and the intervals between blinks in real-time. The camera footage is processed within the browser, and neither the video nor the measurement results are sent externally. Additionally, we have started online sales of the "blinking detection app (Windows version)" that allows unlimited measurements for research and verification purposes. It supports recording and CSV output, with prices set at 33,000 yen for general users and 16,500 yen for academic institutions (tax included, per license, one-time purchase). The camera input version and the file input version are sold separately. For integration into products and services, we also offer the "blinking detection SDK" (with a one-month free trial version available).

We will begin providing a new solution for construction companies, the "Specific Voice Detection Edge AI System," utilizing the development and operational insights from the "Specific Vehicle Detection System" co-developed with Toda Corporation, starting in September 2026. This system applies the technology of the productivity-enhancing AI camera "PROLICA" to pre-learn and analyze specific voice data collected by outdoor microphones, allowing AI to detect target sounds in real-time on-site. By using voice detection, it will be possible to early detect the presence of approaching emergency vehicles even in environments where traditional visual checks or image analysis by AI cameras are difficult due to obstructions like buildings or curves. By linking with various devices and automating the control of construction vehicle departures and alerts to workers, it contributes to improving safety at construction sites and surrounding roads. ■ Main Features of This System 1. High-precision detection using voice AI 2. Safety management independent of visibility 3. Real-time processing with edge AI For more details, please check the linked page.
