Smart Factory EXPO 2026

Eye tracking technology that digitizes gaze to support the inheritance of skilled techniques and prevent human errors in the field.

SiB's "Eye Tracking Core+" is a gaze measurement system in the form of smart glasses developed in Japan. It captures the position and movement of the operator's gaze in real-time, accurately quantifying the time spent and the number of times specific points are looked at. This aids in behavior analysis, skill inheritance, and improving educational efficiency. It has a wealth of implementation results in manufacturing sites, visualizing and data-fying the gaze and work actions of veteran technicians to support the transfer of know-how to younger employees. Furthermore, it contributes to preventing human errors and improving work quality, achieving results in many workplaces. With a lightweight design of just 39g, it does not hinder natural movement during wear and allows for the acquisition of high-precision gaze data. It is utilized across a wide range of fields, including manufacturing, bringing innovation to skill inheritance and business improvement.

• Vocational Training/Technical School

On-site improvements starting from visual attention. Easily grasp evaluation and proficiency at a glance! Why not utilize eye-tracking glasses as a training tool for newcomers?

As the new fiscal year begins, many workplaces are likely ramping up their training and education programs, such as OJT (On-the-Job Training) and Off-JT (Off-the-Job Training). However, are the results of the time and effort spent on training and education being made visible through evaluation and measurement? For both the learners and the instructors, being able to confirm outcomes and understanding in a visible manner should lead to more effective education. - How much growth has occurred? - Is that effect being utilized in the workplace? - What are the areas for improvement in the training content? "Eye Tracking Core+" visualizes precisely "where, in what order, and for how many seconds the worker looked." By providing feedback while observing actual gaze patterns, it enables specific and practical education. Additionally, the acquired gaze data can be output in over 30 formats, including numbers, charts, and graphs. This allows for education based on scientific evidence rather than relying on "intuition"! If you are looking to conduct "more effective education and training," please feel free to contact us. *You can view product materials and case studies by clicking the "Download Catalog" button.

• Analytical Equipment and Devices

With the wearable smart glasses "Eye Tracking Core+", it is possible to achieve skill inheritance and education on-site, work analysis, and remote support!

The eye-tracking glasses "Eye Tracking Core+" are a glasses-type device that tracks the movement of the human eye and can analyze it from various angles. With over 100 users in domestic manufacturing and research and development institutions, it is being utilized in a wide range of fields! 【Usage Examples】 ■ Manufacturing: Utilizing "visualization of gaze" for skill acquisition, inheritance, and education ■ Research Institutions: Research in ergonomics, psychology, and neuroscience ■ Marketing Field: Product evaluation and usability testing As one of the few "Japanese brands" in the industry, we have developed unique new technology. The hardware is lightweight at 39g, and the software supports Japanese, English, and Chinese, designed to be simple and intuitive for anyone to use. In particular, in manufacturing sites, there are many achievements in processes such as visual inspection, painting, and assembly. In the research field, there are numerous achievements aimed at analyzing driving skills for automobiles, heavy machinery, and ships, as well as accident prevention. We will propose suitable usage methods according to customer needs. We are always accepting requests for actual machine verification and demonstrations, so please feel free to contact us! *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.

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.
