With NIPPON HUME, both companies will pursue joint R&D for data acquisition and analysis using drones and sensors, joint development of systems and operational methods, cooperation in productization and service development, and mutual complementation of technical and operational know-how through human resource exchange; with NSC, they will promote demonstration projects and joint research for sewerage pipeline maintenance technologies, explore PPP/PFI business opportunities, collaborate across the value chain for robotics and AI-based solutions for water and sewerage facilities and related infrastructure, and conduct overseas market research; with KANSEI, they will engage in joint R&D for sewerage pipeline inspection using drones and “No Entry” models, examine equipment and data acquisition methods suited for field applications, collaborate on designing and standardizing nationwide inspection operation flows, and jointly propose projects to local governments and promote social implementation; with YAMADA SHOKAI, collaboration includes the Company providing sales support, technical know-how, on-site support, and expertise in hardware/software for infrastructure construction and maintenance, while YAMADA SHOKAI facilitates customer matching, smooth communication, and forms an in-house IBIS2 pilot team to provide drone inspection services.
