Groove Notes has started a demonstration project utilizing AI and quantum computers in collaboration with the Japan Side Dish Association and five side dish manufacturing companies. [Participating in the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry's "Robot-Friendly Environment Construction Support Project" for two consecutive years.]

By utilizing quantum computers, we can replicate the skills of artisans, such as manufacturing processes and production sequences, and automatically create optimal production schedules!

In today's rapidly changing market and customer needs, production and manufacturing sites are required to improve productivity more than ever. However, even in production scheduling, intricate designs are necessary for order and equipment allocation, and there are limits to how much skilled workers can manually create and modify plans in response to fluctuations in demand forecasts and production capacity. The latest technology that excels in planning production schedules and plans with such complex constraints is quantum computing. By utilizing the "MAGELLAN BLOCKS" quantum computer solution provided by GrooveNotes, it is possible to automatically derive the optimal plans, such as the work sequence that minimizes setup changes according to various manufacturing items and the allocation of tools considering the workers' dominant hands. This enables the reproduction and enhancement of judgments made by skilled workers, which was difficult to achieve with traditional systems. There are also cases where planning tasks that previously took more than half a day to complete manually can now be finished in less than an hour, demonstrating efforts toward business automation. We will introduce examples of the use of quantum computers in manufacturing sites.

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.*

From measurement instruments to point cloud processing and analysis software, the latest solutions come together! We propose numerous cutting-edge technologies and products that solve on-site challenges in a one-stop manner. It's not just about seeing; it's about experiencing, consulting, and bringing it back to the field. At the venue, we will showcase the latest measurement instruments and solutions, including 3D laser scanners, handheld 3D scanners, LiDAR drones, and 3DGS (Gaussian Splatting). Additionally, we will announce surprise new products!

We have updated the article on the website of the semi-custom system construction "Select Beam." When planning factories, logistics warehouses, and stores, "system construction" has become an effective means of achieving cost reduction and shortening construction periods. The rationality of system construction through thorough standardization is very high, and it is adopted in many projects. However, due to the differing characteristics of each manufacturer, many business owners find themselves wondering, "Which manufacturer is suitable for our plans?" and "Is it really optimal compared to conventional methods?" In this article, we will compare and introduce the basic knowledge of the advantages and disadvantages of system construction, as well as recommend manufacturers by purpose in a ranking format. ■ Semi-Custom System Construction "Select Beam" This is a unique method by Sakura Structure, and it is a "third option" that is less expensive than system construction. It is the most suitable method for low-rise long-span buildings such as stores, warehouses, factories, and logistics facilities, as well as high-rise buildings like hotels.

"Because the ground is poor, we have no choice but to use a structural slab." Such fixed notions of "over-design" unnecessarily drive up construction costs. In large space buildings such as warehouses, factories, and stores, the choice of floor slab type is one of the most significant variables affecting construction costs. What is important is to compare and verify the advantages and risks of each type, and to derive the optimal solution that is "suitable for the purpose" for the entire building. By reading this content, you will understand the following points: - Characteristics of the five main construction methods with different support forms - Recommended situations for adoption - Cost comparison examples of floor slabs "I am struggling with the dilemma of floor settlement risks and costs on weak ground." "I want to know the optimal solution for the site without being tied to a specific construction method." Construction companies and general contractor representatives facing such issues are encouraged to take a look.

Our company will be exhibiting at the "Hokuriku Technology Exchange Techno Fair 2026." Dates: October 23rd, 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM October 24th, 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM Venue: Fukui Prefectural Industrial Hall We look forward to your visit.
