The business-use tablet ODS will showcase NFC tablets at "Retail Tech JAPAN," focusing on themes of labor shortages and improving employee work efficiency.

An Android tablet for business use equipped with an NFC reader/writer that has obtained FeliCa performance certification M class, located in the center of the screen.

This device is equipped with an NFC reader/writer that has obtained FeliCa M class certification, located in the center of the screen! (Scheduled for release in October 2024) In recent years, the opportunities for using NFC have increased, including cashless payments via touch, reading My Number cards, and managing entry and exit. NFC is primarily built into smartphones and dedicated devices, while in PCs and tablets, it has mostly been used with external card readers. However, this device has passed the stringent standards of the FeliCa M class in the NFC certification test, allowing NFC usage on the large screen of the tablet without the need for an external card reader. By incorporating it into a highly versatile Android tablet, users can continue to use their currently utilized applications without significant modifications. For example, by combining a tabletop ordering system and payment function for restaurants, the entire process from ordering to payment can be completed solely with this device, greatly enhancing efficiency. The tablets from [O.D.S.] are designed and supported in Japan! We are a domestic manufacturer delivering safety and trust!

Equipped with an NFC reader/writer in the center of the screen! A battery-less Android tablet specialized for stationary use.

The TA2C-NF8BL is a battery-free tablet specialized for constant power use, such as embedded and stationary applications, and is a sibling model to the "TA2C-NF8," which features an NFC reader/writer and is set to be released in October 2024 for business purposes. Like its base model, the TA2C-NF8, it is equipped with an NFC reader/writer that has obtained FeliCa M class certification, allowing it to be used not only as a payment terminal but also for reading My Number cards, as it supports the extended APDU necessary for online qualification verification. Additionally, it comes with preset functions that are often requested for customization in business tablets. We provide one-stop support for kitting tasks, such as configuring settings and installing applications tailored to the support system and usage environment at domestic locations, as well as delivery to various stores and sites, thereby reducing the burden on our customers. The tablets from [ODS] are planned and supported domestically! We are a domestic manufacturer delivering safety and trust!

About ROAD: The "Roundtable on the Purpose of Autonomous Driving (ROAD)" conference series has evolved into a unique platform for interdis-ciplinary dialogue and international collaboration in the field of autonomous driving and autonomous mobility. Established in 2016, ROAD has brought together researchers, industry leaders, and public sector stakeholders from six countries across three continents. Based on this background, the upcoming ROAD 2026 will focus on "safety” and "driving AI”—the final pieces of the autonomous driving puzzle—to advance discussions on establishing the foundational framework for ensuring safety quality and obtaining regular-tory approval for autonomous driving. We also intend to discuss the international commonalities and differences regarding the social value brought about by ADS vehicles in terms of automation, intelligent driving, and mobility. We have established a total of five compelling themes for the Round Workshops, consisting of two topics related to “The Last Piece” and three topics related to the social value of ADS, as shown below. 1) Round Workshop 1 - Horizons of E2E Driving AI → Can AI Understand the Driving Environment Like Humans? 2) Round Workshop 2 - Beyond the Unknown: Safety Cases for ADS → Can Safety Ever Be Proven? 3) Round Workshop 3 - Envisioning Smart City Mobility → Can Smart City Mobility Bridge the Mobility Divide? 4) Round Workshop 4 - Logistics Enhancement Through Autonomous Tracking → Will Logistics Become Human-Free? 5) Round Workshop 5 - The Evolution of CASE: SDV/AIDV → Will Automakers Become AI Companies? We hope you’ll all join us!

[Speaker] Masashi Sugita, President and CEO of LEX Style Co., Ltd. [Key Lecture Content] The power consumption of AI servers used in data centers has significantly increased, making traditional air cooling insufficient for operation. This lecture will organize the requirements for introducing a liquid cooling system into air-cooled data centers and explain the implementation method using free cooling with specific design details. When handling high-density AI servers, energy efficiency is required, and the widely used energy efficiency indicator, as well as the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry's Resource and Energy Agency's PUE regulation of "1.3 or below," will be explained along with practical operational insights. [Lecture Items] 1. Heat dissipation methods for high-density, high-heat AI servers 2. Basics and importance of PUE/pPUE 3. PUE regulation of "1.3 or below" by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry's Resource and Energy Agency 4. AI server implementation and requirements for new data centers 5. Summary and future outlook 6. Q&A / Business card exchange

[Instructor] Yuichiro Kabushiki, Partner Lawyer at TMI Comprehensive Law Office [Key Lecture Content] With the spread of AI, there is growing attention on the civil liability of developers, providers, and users of AI. The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry will publish "Guidelines on the Interpretation and Application of Civil Liability in AI Utilization" in April 2026, and the Ministry of Justice will also establish an expert meeting to examine civil liability related to unauthorized use of images and voices generated by AI in the same month. As the full enforcement of the AI Promotion Act and the revision of AI guidelines are underway, it is necessary to design and operate governance based on the potential responsibilities that may arise retrospectively. In this seminar, based on the guidelines from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and drawing on litigation practice experience as a judge and lawyer, we will organize the basic framework for assessing civil liability and explain fundamental methods for designing and operating governance based on risk analysis. Furthermore, we will examine the framework for civil liability and the design and operation of governance using hypothetical cases that are likely to pose practical issues.

In this seminar, we will welcome Mr. Satoru Hayami from Waseda University, who will explain the latest trends in AI utilization in manufacturing, as well as the evolution of technologies such as agent-based AI and physical AI, and the opportunities and key points for practical application in the manufacturing industry. Furthermore, Mr. Tsubasa Shibata, representative of Next Opt, will introduce processes aimed at practical implementation, incorporating actual case studies from manufacturing sites. We hope you will envision the "potential for AI utilization in your company" and take home hints that will lead to improvements in your operations starting tomorrow. We look forward to your participation.
