ÖSSUR has successfully standardized both the processes and systems of its three large logistics centers and the growing number of regional warehouses.

Össur has a global network consisting of three large distribution centers and multiple regional warehouses for the sale of prosthetics, orthotics, and supports. Thanks to Manhattan SCALE, employees at these locations can work in the same way, significantly improving productivity. Over 40 years ago, Icelandic Össur Kristinsson decided to design a new prosthetic leg with a silicone liner for his left foot. This innovative technology led to the establishment of his own company, which has grown over the years into a global manufacturer and distributor of prosthetics, orthotics, and supports. Össur has production facilities in Iceland, Mexico, and China, and has built an extensive distribution network. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

Do you have any concerns or requests regarding wired bed exit sensors? × Tangling or tripping over wired cables × Cable disconnection or damage × Worrying about forgetting to turn the switch back on after temporarily stopping the sensor. × Wanting to be notified of bed exits even from a location far from the nurse call outlet. Such concerns can be resolved simply by connecting our wireless nurse call linked set to the sensor! Our wireless nurse call linked set allows you to connect bed exit sensors like "Ugo-kun," "Foldable Thin Matta-kun," "Ayumi-chan," and "Just Place Pole-kun" to transmitters and receivers, reducing wiring around the bed area, alleviating concerns about tripping or falling due to cables, and contributing to a tidier work environment. Furthermore, it enables the use of bed exit sensors even from locations far from the nurse call outlet, allowing for more flexible equipment placement.

A system for driver terminals has been realized through API integration, promoting the optimization of the delivery process and improvement of services to customers. Seino Information Service Co., Ltd. and Briskola Co., Ltd. announce that they have adopted Briskola's full lifecycle API management product "BAMs Series" for the construction of a system utilizing APIs and the management of API connections with various business applications for driver terminals, aimed at improving delivery efficiency and achieving digitalization of logistics for Seino Transportation Co., Ltd. and transportation groups nationwide. By implementing Briskola's "BAMs Series" for API management in the delivery management system constructed through API integration, we will focus on responding to the expected increase in the number of API calls due to the anticipated increase in terminal numbers, as well as ensuring stable system operation and preventive detection. This will lead to improved operational efficiency for drivers and the provision of high-quality services to customers sending and receiving packages.

In this case study, we have received cooperation from Obayashi Corporation and Sankyu Inc., leaders at the forefront of the construction and logistics industries, to introduce their specific initiatives regarding "early detection of heatstroke risk" and "ensuring worker safety." Additionally, we have published an interview article with Obayashi Corporation, who contributed to the development of "GenVital LTE," as a "development story." As heatstroke risk has become a social issue, we encourage everyone in companies working on improving on-site productivity and safety measures for workers to read this for insights. GRIFFY will continue to contribute to creating safer and more comfortable working environments through DX solutions, including "GenVital LTE." ◾️ Obayashi Corporation (case study) ◾️ Sankyu Inc.

We conducted an RTK accuracy verification of the GNSS reference station (Hi-Target Vnet6plus receiver + choke ring antenna) installed at our company building. Generally, with a single-frequency GNSS, once the baseline length exceeds 10 km, it becomes impossible to consider the path through the ionosphere as the same, and the difference in ionospheric delay becomes a significant source of error. By using dual-frequency GNSS, it is possible to correct the delay based on the differences in delay caused by the frequency of the radio waves; however, it is still said to be effective only up to about 10 km. Why is that? We have published the verification results on our blog.
