We are pleased to announce that GLOCAL-EYEZ has been listed in both
WE ARE PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE THAT OUR "EFFORT TO INTEGRATE ROAD PATROL AND PAVEMENT INSPECTION WITH A SIMPLE ONBOARD CAMERA - GLOCAL-EYEZ" HAS BEEN AWARDED THE "INFRASTRUCTURE MAINTENANCE CHALLENGE AWARD" BY THE JAPAN SOCIETY OF CIVIL ENGINEERS FOR 2023. FOR DETAILS, CLICK HERE (JSCE RELEASE).
WE WOULD LIKE TO EXPRESS OUR CONDOLENCES TO THOSE WHO LOST THEIR LIVES IN THE NOTO PENINSULA EARTHQUAKE OF 2024, AND OUR DEEPEST SYMPATHIES TO ALL THOSE AFFECTED BY THE DISASTER. LANDSLIDES AND FALLING ROCKS CAUSED BY THE NOTO PENINSULA EARTHQUAKE HAVE COMPLETELY CUT OFF ROADS, AND EMERGENCY RESTORATION WORK IS UNDERWAY. EVEN ON ROADS THAT ARE STILL PASSABLE, CRACKS AND RISES IN THE GROUND HAVE OCCURRED IN SEVERAL PLACES, AND THERE ARE CONCERNS ABOUT THE DANGER OF TRAFFIC HAZARDS. IN RESPONSE TO ROAD ADMINISTRATORS' REQUESTS, WE PROVIDE ROAD SURVEYS USING "GLOCAL-EYEZ," A SMARTPHONE-BASED ROAD SURVEY CLOUD SYSTEM THAT CAN COLLECT INFORMATION QUICKLY AND ON A LARGE SCALE. IN THE CASE OF THE RECENT EARTHQUAKE, WE QUICKLY PROVIDED IMAGE DATA ON ROAD SURFACE CONDITIONS (ROAD SURFACE CRACKS, ROAD SURFACE SINKS, MANHOLE RIDGES), FALLEN TREES ALONG ROADS, COLLAPSED SLOPES, ETC., ACQUIRED WITH SMARTPHONES TO ROAD MANAGERS WHO WANTED TO QUICKLY CONFIRM THE ROAD CONDITIONS. AS A COMPANY AIMING TO PROMOTE DX IN THE INFRASTRUCTURE MAINTENANCE INDUSTRY, WE WILL CONTINUE TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE RAPID COLLECTION OF INFORMATION AND RESTORATION FROM THE EARTHQUAKE DAMAGE FOR THE RECONSTRUCTION OF THE AFFECTED AREAS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

Our "GLOCAL-EYEZ" was introduced in the web media "Metaverse Research Institute" as "[Latest in 2023] Summary of recommended AI-related services and development companies for companies. Details: https://metaversesouken.com/metaverse/ai-service-company/#DXGLOCAL-EYEZ
We are pleased to announce that "GLOCAL-EYEZ" has been featured in the November 2023 Third Friday issue of "Koho Hiratsuka. As the first introduction of AI road surface survey technology in Kanagawa Prefecture, the article introduced its use and the effects of its introduction. Details: https://www.city.hiratsuka.kanagawa.jp/common/200143635.pdf弊社では, we will continue to contribute to the maintenance and management of safe and secure social infrastructure by utilizing advanced technology.

OUR EFFORTS WERE FEATURED IN "GLOCAL-EYEZ PASSES PERFORMANCE VERIFICATION TEST" IN "KENTSU SHIMBUN (OCTOBER 31, 2023)".
WE HAVE NOW OVERCOME THE WEAKNESS OF USING A SIMPLE DEVICE AND SUCCEEDED IN QUANTITATIVELY CALCULATING "RUTTED ROAD SURFACE" FROM 2D ROAD SURFACE IMAGES CAPTURED BY AN IN-VEHICLE CAMERA. BASED ON THE RESULTS OF THIS RESEARCH, GLOCAL-EYEZ BECAME THE FIRST TECHNOLOGY USING AN IN-VEHICLE CAMERA TO PARTICIPATE IN PERFORMANCE TESTS IN 2023 IN THE FIELD OF "RUT CLEARANCE". WE WILL WORK ON FURTHER TECHNOLOGICAL IMPROVEMENT AND R&D OF "GLOCAL-EYEZ" TOWARD THE GOALS OF "FROM SIMPLE EQUIPMENT TO RIGOROUS RESULTS" AND "FROM PATROL DATA TO INSPECTIONS," AND PROMOTE THE ADVANCEMENT AND EFFICIENCY OF ROAD MAINTENANCE MANAGEMENT THROUGH SOCIAL IMPLEMENTATION OF "GLOCAL-EYEZ.
The GLOCAL-EYEZ road inspection crown service is the only in-car camera technology to be registered in both the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's "Pavement Inspection" and "Road Patrol" catalogs. In the "Road Patrol" catalog, GLOCAL-EYEZ was awarded the highest accuracy rating (100% detection rate). For more information, please visit https://prtimes.jp/main/html/rd/p/000000004.000107939.html
WE ARE PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE THAT OUR ROAD INSPECTION TECHNOLOGY GLOCAL-EYEZ HAS PASSED THE NATIONAL AUTOMATIC ROAD MEASURING DEVICE PERFORMANCE TEST ("NATIONAL PERFORMANCE TEST") CONDUCTED IN CHINA. GLOCAL-EYEZ IS THE FIRST VEHICLE USING TECHNOLOGY THAT CAN BE COMPLETED ONLY WITH A SMARTPHONE TO PASS THE NATIONAL PERFORMANCE VERIFICATION TEST IN CHINA. ■OVERVIEW OF THE "NATIONAL ROAD AUTOMATIC MEASURING DEVICE PERFORMANCE TEST "IN THE "NATIONAL PERFORMANCE TEST," A LOCAL RENTAL CAR EQUIPPED WITH A SINGLE SMARTPHONE WAS DRIVEN AS USUAL TO PERFORM MEASUREMENTS. THIS WAS THE FIRST ROAD SURFACE INSPECTION TECHNOLOGY TO PASS THE LOCAL "NATIONAL PERFORMANCE TEST" IN CHINA THAT DID NOT REQUIRE SPECIALIZED EQUIPMENT AND COULD THUS BE COMPLETED USING ONLY A SMARTPHONE. THE RESULTS SHOW THE HIGH LEVEL AND USEFULNESS OF THE TECHNOLOGY, WITH A WIDE RANGE OF ITEMS PASSING THE TEST, INCLUDING "CRACK RATE," "WIDTH OF THE ROAD," "REPRODUCIBILITY AT EACH SPEED," "CAMERA RESOLUTION," AND "IRI. IN RECENT YEARS, NEW TYPES OF ROAD SURFACE INSPECTION TECHNOLOGIES UTILIZING SMARTPHONES AND DRIVE RECORDERS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED ONE AFTER ANOTHER AROUND THE WORLD IN RESPONSE TO THE RAPID PROGRESS OF AI TECHNOLOGY AND THE TREND TOWARD DX. COMPETITION TO DEVELOP SUCH CUTTING-EDGE TECHNOLOGIES AND TO CAPTURE MARKETS IN THESE FIELDS IS INTENSIFYING. AGAINST THIS BACKDROP, IT IS NECESSARY TO RESPOND QUICKLY AND FLEXIBLY TO THE CUSTOMIZATION OF TECHNOLOGY TO MEET LOCAL REQUIREMENTS WHEN EXPANDING OVERSEAS. IN ADDITION, IT IS ESSENTIAL TO CONFIRM THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE TECHNOLOGY IN THE LOCAL MARKET BY PARTICIPATING IN LOCAL ACCREDITATION TESTS, AND TO FURTHER IMPROVE THE TECHNOLOGY BASED ON THE RESULTS OF THESE TESTS. WE WILL CONTINUE TO MAKE FURTHER EFFORTS TO CONTRIBUTE TO ROAD INSPECTIONS AROUND THE WORLD BY SPREADING THE TECHNOLOGY ORIGINATING IN JAPAN TO THE REST OF THE WORLD.
Our company's road inspection technology using smartphones was featured in the Asahi Shimbun Digital (January 21) and the Asahi Shimbun Morning Edition (February 3). We would like to inform you about it. Article title: "'On-site' is not only a reality: Construction and Metaverse Fusion to Commonize Data" https://www.asahi.com/articles/ASR1K67H2R1JPLBJ001.html
