JAPAN C.R.C. Co.,Ltd. is considered a very good idea as a medical MaaS project, such as renting a camping car to a local government or hospital to allow PCR tests or vaccinations, or using it as a space for long-term isolation of severely infected patients.

However, in the absence of doctors and nurses, I think it would be more efficient to check the changes in the biosignals of severely infected patients isolated in each Camping Car, namely, electrocardiogram, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, pulse, and body temperature remotely at the central control center in the hospital building.

And among the countless people lined up in front of the Camping Car, I think that if a person can check for changes in their bio-signals before they get a PCR test or get vaccinated, they can quickly move them to a separate space and take safer action.

To JAPAN C.R.C. Co.,Ltd., which shows the disadvantages of this medical MaaS business, the US Asia Journal introduced AI solutions of Infoming and GB Soft, Korean small and medium-sized enterprises. Accordingly, JAPAN C.R.C. Co.,Ltd. recognizes the technical value of Infoming and GB Soft and is discussing in-house about conducting business by incorporating it into their medical MaaS.

For reference, Infoming is a company that developed a system that analyzes bio-signals of electrocardiogram, blood pressure, blood sugar, oxygen saturation, pulse, and body temperature through a PC screen or smartphone through a camera lens such as CCTV.

In other words, JAPAN C.R.C. Co.,Ltd. felt that medical staff would be able to remotely check medical device-level bio-signals every second by simply filling the wrist of a severely infected patient with a Smart Watch. Also, they felt that CCTV cameras installed in the Camping Car would immediately identify only those who detected abnormalities in bio-signals among the countless people in a row with 95% or more accuracy within 1 to 10 seconds.

Despite planning such an ingenious medical MaaS business, it is necessary to pay attention to the attitude of Japanese companies to compensate for their shortcomings. In addition, I look forward to expanding business exchanges between Japanese and Korean companies.

(Source from Reuters/Alamy)Wellness is a combination of well-being, happiness, and fitness, and refers to an ideal condition in which physical, mental, and social health are harmonized.

This is a concept that emerged as the well-being trend has spread socially since the 2000s. In other words, well-being has been expanded to the concept of well-being as it aims for comprehensive health in all aspects such as mental and social health as well-being as well-being. Meanwhile, as Wellness rises, jobs have also emerged that manage customers’ weight, eating habits, and stress to maintain comprehensive health, and support them to achieve their health goals, which are called “wellness coaches.

(Source from Reuters/Alamy)”A word that combines well-being and fitness. It means a happy (well-being) and healthy (fitness) life.It is becoming a new industry that combines ICT (Information Communication Technology) and Bio Technology (BT). Products and services that cover remote treatment systems for the elderly or patients with mobility difficulties and strive to prevent diseases of healthy people have begun to appear in the market one after another. Is there any company that practices and utilizes company-centered as it is? GB Soft (coo: kibum-park) is a video-based solution using artificial intelligence. Beyond simple wellness, the project was started based on security and safety in the labor business group based on a more specific medical area. Large construction companies in Korea are concentrated in groups centered on apartment housing culture.

(Source from Reuters/Alamy)As a result, after the Pendemic crisis, GB Soft was recognized for its technology and solution, and is currently approaching about 1-2,000 large apartments as a self-developed video solution. In addition, solutions have already been supplied to duty-free shops that require close contact, and video-based solutions have also been applied to health care solutions to improve the working environment of industrial groups and workers. Korea’s largest telecommunication company (KT) and elderly welfare care services, including automobile production sites and fruit parts production sites, are also approached to health management as an artificial intelligence image analysis solution for the elderly in new city development areas. This approach is shown to be most efficient in wellness and health care. In the midst of this, medical care companies (hospitals and ward management companies), database companies, and IT companies have been showing interest and approaching large Japanese companies. In addition, life insurance companies are also approached as solutions and are signing licensing contracts. As you know, insurance companies want to provide services to various disease control and customers. As a result, the area of GB SOFT seems endless. It is leading to wellness + healthcare = medical care.

The smart city designated by Japan’s the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism is under construction in 38 regions nationwide. Let’s take a look at how construction companies and other companies that participated in Japan’s smart city construction project are making efforts according to the government’s Guidebook.

In the smart city of HICity (HANEDA INNOVATION CITY), adjacent to Haneda Airport, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism began operating the self-driving bus “NAVYA ARMA” (France, Navya) in September 2020 with the help of a consortium. In addition, “NAVYA ARMA” is the first time in Japan that a special device vehicle operated by a normal handle, brake and other special devices during manual operation is normally operated by an autonomous bus. Haneda Future Development utilizes “NAVYA ARMA” and BOLDLY’s automatic driving vehicle operation platform “Dispatcher,” which can manage and monitor the operation of automatic driving vehicles from a remote location, and operates free indoor circulation buses to improve the convenience of movement. The self-driving bus tours regularly from 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. every day, and anyone who visits “HICity” can ride it for free. In addition, the import, sales, and remuneration support of “NAVYA ARMA” is provided by MACNICA to improve the reliability of the vehicle and realize stable driving. Also, Haneda Future Development will conduct an empirical experiment to and from the innovation corridor in “HICity” using the self-driving slow electric cart developed by PerceptIn Limited. In the future, we will conduct demonstration experiments in which remote operators operate “NAVYA ARMA” and self-driving low-speed electric carts simultaneously in “Dispatcher” in anticipation of safe and efficient operation of multiple automotive vehicles of the vehicle type. In addition, through the partnership between Kashima E&C’s spatial data base “3DK-Field” and “Dispatcher,” which aggregates real-time location information such as people, mobility, and robots in “HICity,” facility managers can check the location information of vehicles in “3DK-Field” and contribute to the efficiency of future vehicle management.

In February 2019, SoftBank Group Corp. worked with TOYOTA on MONET Technologies in collaboration with TOYOTA to promote the Medical-MaaS(Mobility as a Service) business for smart city linkage, and measured Blood pressure, body temperature, weight, blood sugar, remotely diagnostic monitoring on TOYOTA HiAce in Nagano-Ken and Ina-City. The “mobile clinic” provides remote and face-to-face treatment services regardless of physical location by moving mobility to where patients want it. It is a system in which a nurse visits a patient with a healthcare facility, a doctor in a hospital treats the patient through a video call, and then the nurse examines and prescribes the patient under the doctor’s direction. This is what the ‘mobile clinic’ provides by synthesizing the three concepts of ‘remote treatment + home treatment + mobility’.

With the introduction of the LA Times Asia Journal, Softbank is internally considering the Medical-MaaS business team to apply a solution of Infomining (measuring bio-signals of electrocardiogram, blood pressure, blood sugar, oxygen saturation, pulse, and body temperature analyzed through Smartwatches) in Korea.

At TOYOSU Smart City in Tokyo, CUVEYES has developed an APP that can exchange accumulated points for goods and services by automatically converting the amount of movement that corporate executives and residents walk, run, and move by bicycle into carbon dioxide. With the introduction of the LA Times Asia Journal, CUVEYES will start joint development with GB Soft in Korea after collecting opinions from local companies and local governments to apply solutions of GB Soft (Artificial Intelligence analyzes light from camera lenses to measure bio-signals of blood pressure, oxygen saturation, pulse, and body temperature). CUVEYES is a move to realize a user-centered smart city by allowing a user of APP to measure a biometric signal on their own through a camera lens of a smartphone to manage healthcare.
