We would like to introduce a case study of the development of "Daikin Support Life" for Daikin Industries, Ltd., a company in the lifestyle and manufacturing sector. This app visualizes the activity status of "residents" (elderly individuals living alone) that can be detected by monitoring sensors, along with statistical information about their daily rhythms, providing insights to the "watching side" (family members) regarding the daily activities of the "resident." It is assumed that the "watching side" will check the activity status of the "resident" daily. Therefore, to avoid creating a psychological barrier to monitoring, we designed the expression, information, and flow in a way that allows the "watching side" to smoothly and effortlessly access the current activity status and daily rhythm information of the "resident." [Case Overview] ■ Client: Daikin Industries, Ltd. ■ Industry: Manufacturing, Lifestyle ■ Services - UX/UI Design - Product Development *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case study of the development of "Kubota-PAD4.0" for Kubota Corporation, a manufacturing company. The system can be integrated with a core system that manages service parts and is used by various users both inside and outside the company on a global scale. Since it is a system used globally, three important requirements are user-friendly operability, fast response, and multi-device compatibility. Microsoft Azure, a cloud environment, has been adopted as the system infrastructure. As a result of implementing various improvements, we achieved an improvement in display speed (approximately 40% increase). The design has been made user-friendly even for those with little experience using the system. 【Case Overview (Partial)】 ■Challenges - Quickly identify the desired part from hundreds of thousands of service parts globally and view related parts with a smooth operability akin to a native application. - Support for multiple languages, fast response, flexible adaptation to changes in market conditions, and the ability to maintain stability and ease of maintenance are important requirements. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

It is the time for new initiatives and projects to get underway, and many may be looking toward their next challenges. New challenges expand the possibilities of a business, but they also come with uncertainties such as "Where should I start?" and "What direction should I pursue?" If you proceed without a clear understanding of the market and customers, it is not uncommon to find yourself needing significant revisions later on or to have ideas that fail to materialize. That is why, in the early stages, it is important to establish hypotheses and conduct validations while organizing your company's strengths and value propositions to find a clear direction. This time, we will introduce a support service for the planning phase that helps resolve the uncertainty of "not knowing how to proceed" during the startup phase and nurtures ideas into concrete forms.
