TOKYO, Mar 25, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd. (SHI) and NEC Corporation (NEC) will begin joint development in April 2026 of a system that automatically identifies near-miss incidents at construction sites and generates reports as part of promoting safety. The system utilizes camera footage and sensor data collected from hydraulic excavators, aiming to prevent accidents.Overview of safety measure implementation using the jointly developed systemBackgroundConstruction industry operations are heavily influenced by unpredictable factors such as weather, geological conditions, and constantly changing work environments, resulting in frequent hazardous incidents. To enhance safety, there is growing demand for new support systems that leverage digital technologies. One such demand is for a system capable of automatically extracting, visualizing, and summarizing potentially hazardous scenes ("risk scenes") from site-specific and time-dependent video footage and work......

TOKYO, Mar 25, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - NEC Corporation's (NEC; TSE: 6701) ecosystem-based corporate venture capital (CVC) fund, NEC Orchestrating Future Fund (NOFF), has invested in AGI7, Inc. (AGI7), provider of the Physical AI platform "Alpha Vision." This platform enables AI agents to understand physical spaces and to automatically execute effective responses to detected events.In recent years, a wide variety of sites, including stores, warehouses, construction sites, data centers, event venues, and public infrastructure, have seen growing needs for advancing safety measures, addressing labor shortages, integrating visualization across multiple locations, and making rapid decisions. However, there are limits to manually and continuously monitoring the vast amounts of video and sensor data collected from cameras and IoT devices. Consequently, there is a rapidly growing demand for AI that can understand physical spaces and perform advanced visualization and evaluation.AG......

Kawasaki, Osaka, Japan, Mar 25, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Fujitsu Limited and the Center for Quantum Information and Quantum Biology at The University of Osaka today announced the development of a new technology designed to accelerate the industrial application of quantum computers in the era of early fault-tolerant quantum computing (early-FTQC). By combining ver. 3 of the STAR architecture, a unique highly efficient phase rotation gate quantum computing architecture, with a novel molecular model optimization technique, researchers have significantly reduced computational resource requirements. This breakthrough will enable the energy calculations for chemical material design such as catalyst molecules, within a realistic timeframe using early-FTQC quantum computers. These kinds of calculations are currently not possible using current computers, and would take millennia even using previous versions of the STAR architecture. The technologies are expected to contribute to solving various societ......
