In recent years, the implementation of maintenance DX to achieve "non-stop factories" has become an urgent necessity in manufacturing sites. Amid the trend of factory IoT and data utilization, the use of remote I/O, which can remotely aggregate and collect sensor information and control signals from equipment and sensors dispersed inside and outside the factory, is gaining importance as a foundation for predictive maintenance and condition monitoring. On the other hand, the installation environment for remote I/O is not necessarily limited to control panels or well-conditioned factory interiors. There is an increasing need to collect data in harsh environments, such as outdoor equipment and conditions involving high temperatures, low temperatures, vibrations, and strong electrical noise. Conventional remote I/O systems have struggled to operate stably under such conditions, requiring measures like installation location constraints and additional protective enclosures. Environmentally robust remote I/O with wide temperature support and noise resistance can address these challenges, enabling the expansion of the scope of factory IoT and predictive maintenance to outdoor and remote equipment. In this seminar, we will introduce the lineup of Contec's environmentally robust remote I/O, the "CONPROSYS(R) Robust I/O Series," which includes a total of 23 products.

[Lecturers] Nishimura & Asahi Law Offices, Foreign Law Joint Enterprise Attorney and Associate Iku Akamatsu Attorney and Associate Yasukazu Yamazaki (Note: "Saki" is a variant character) [Key Lecture Content] In the logistics sector and other areas, discussions are underway regarding the social implementation of drone flight routes. Drone flight routes involve various stakeholders, including drone route operators, drone operation businesses, surrounding municipalities, and ground-related parties, who collaborate and divide roles to realize these routes. Therefore, drone route operators and businesses utilizing drone routes need to enter into contracts regarding the use of drone routes with relevant parties, clarify roles, and implement appropriate risk management. This lecture will explain the legal points that must be considered when entering into contracts for the use of drone flight routes. [Lecture Items] 1. Overview of drone flight routes and recent examination status 2. Stakeholders and their roles related to drone flight routes 3.
