• Temperature and Humidity Control

Non-destructive testing: It is possible to inspect objects non-contact without causing damage using terahertz light. An all-in-one model equipped with a scanning stage and software.

OPTIKAN's terahertz imaging system "uSense" is an all-in-one terahertz imaging device that comes with a tablet equipped with FMCW (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) radar, a scanning stage, and control software. It enables non-destructive and non-contact measurements of various samples without causing damage using terahertz light. It can be used not only for the evaluation and research of materials such as resins and composite materials but also for offline quality control, defect detection, and foreign object detection in industrial applications. Please consider it for measurement applications that are difficult to detect with conventional inspections such as X-ray testing. - Designed as an all-in-one model suitable for research and offline quality inspection - Supports a wide scanning area - High sensing speed

• Color camera

Achieving a tracking resolution of approximately 0.0001 pixels with a unique algorithm.

MotionScope's strain measurement system achieves a tracking resolution of approximately 0.0001 pixels through its unique algorithms. We offer not only a complete system that includes cameras as a turnkey solution but also sets that allow customers to choose lenses, lighting, speckles, and more according to their specific applications. Since measurements can be taken non-contact, it is possible to measure various objects, such as the blades of wind turbines and large buildings or structures. ■ Measurement of displacement (visualization of movements smaller than 1μm) ■ Ability to magnify and analyze the motion of objects ■ VMA (Visual Modal Analysis): Visual modal analysis ■ Smart aliasing: Measurement up to 14 times the Nyquist limit is possible. ■ BOSchlieren (Background Oriented Schlieren): Background-oriented schlieren

• Other measurement, recording and measuring instruments

Acoustic sensors that can be used in high temperature, high pressure, high humidity, high magnetic field, and radiation environments.

Phonoptics' microphones are designed to quietly capture sound without being noticed at all. ■ Acoustic sensors developed as products resistant to electromagnetic interference They are made of plastic and glass, do not use electricity at all, and have no metal parts. They operate solely on light. ■ Usable at distances of over 10 km (6 miles) without using a relay Based on patented sensor technology using a single optical fiber, it is possible to use the microphone at distances of over 10 km (6 miles) from the electronic device without using a relay. ■ Compact and easy to install The sensors are compact and can be easily installed. By using the telephone communication network, the microphone can be connected to existing optical networks.

• Other measurement, recording and measuring instruments

Can be used in harsh environments such as high temperatures and high frequencies. Dynamic pressure wave measurement of turbochargers.

The Alpheus100 from Phonoptics is a dynamic pressure sensor that can be used in harsh environments such as high temperatures and high frequencies. ■ Compact: Sensor dimensions: Diameter Φ3.2mm, Φ2.5mm (※Φ1.25mm in development) ■ Lightweight: 0.5g (sensor head) Due to its fiber design and small diameter, it can also be used for pressure measurement inside pipes. ■ Excellent explosion-proof properties The sensing part uses only glass and fiber, providing excellent explosion-proof characteristics. ■ Accurate measurement in harsh environments. - RF/EMI-free, no electromagnetic interference - Calibrated for better response speed and sensitivity than piezo sensors, allowing for more accurate measurements. ■ Frequency range: 40kHz, 100kHz (other specifications available upon request) ■ Operating temperature: up to 600℃ (※ up to 1000℃ in development) ■ Capable of detecting vibrations in liquids.

**Seminar Overview** The construction industry faces many challenges, including a shortage of personnel, regulations on maximum working hours, and the need for efficiency improvements. Additionally, the transmission of skills due to an aging workforce has become a significant issue, with a high turnover rate among younger employees who are supposed to carry on these skills. In this seminar, we will discuss the causes of turnover based on case studies and explain key points on how to reduce turnover rates by advancing IT integration.

**Seminar Overview** "Generative AI," which is gaining attention as a method for improving business efficiency and utilizing internal digital transformation (DX), can be influenced by the literacy of the employees using it, potentially increasing the burden of work instead. In this seminar, we will discuss the current challenges of generative AI while providing examples of how it can be used to enhance business efficiency. We will also explain how to utilize generative AI in a way that achieves efficiency without being dependent on the user's skills. We hope this will serve as a reference for considering the use of generative AI.

**Seminar Overview** The reality that young members leave their jobs due to miscommunication with their superiors occurs in every industry. This is also true in the construction industry. The long-standing issues of labor shortages, regulations on working hours, and the challenges of passing on skills due to an aging workforce are significant problems. However, the misalignment in communication with young employees, who are supposed to be receiving this knowledge, may actually worsen the situation. In this seminar, we will discuss the causes of communication gaps as seen through case studies, and talk about methods for skill transfer, knowledge accumulation, and smooth internal communication using IT tools.
