Establishment of a Service Platform that Enables Collaboration between Various Components and Creation of New Services

To accelerate the realization of the "Super Smart Society (Society 5.0)" through IoT, we extract and componentize the functions of various devices on the network and some functions of old and new systems. Our goal is to build a "service platform" that combines and coordinates these services to create new services. Specifically, it provides an open API (Application Programming Interface) by componentization of various hierarchical functions related to the control of things in the real world. Then, we build a mechanism for cooperation and coordination of various components. New features and services can be implemented by calling the functionality of components through various APIs. In addition, we will develop automation technology that utilizes AI and other technologies to link and coordinate various systems and devices flexibly and dynamically.

Through these R&D activities, we continuously create new systems, services, businesses, and innovations that will contribute to the realization of "Super Smart Society (Society 5.0)" and accelerate the creation of new value.
