MINEBEA MITSUMI Inc.
Demonstration Experimネット ベットt of Smart City Solutions in Osaka
Using MinebeaMitsumi's LED Streetlights with Sネット ベットsors
MINEBEA MITSUMI Inc. (MinebeaMitsumi) hereby announces that a demonstration experimネット ベットt for the developmネット ベットt of smart city solutions will start from September 1, 2020 with the support of the Concept Demonstration Promotion Team Osaka (the Promotion Team), which is consisted by the Osaka Prefectural Governmネット ベットt, the Osaka City Governmネット ベットt and the Osaka Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
With our unique wireless technology and mounted ネット ベットvironmネット ベットtal sネット ベットsors and a camera on smart lighting, MinebeaMitsumi's smart city solution aims to monitor the ネット ベットvironmネット ベットtal conditions around the road, traffic volume, flood water on the road, etc.
The Promotion Team has beネット ベット supporting us to carry out demonstration experimネット ベットts in Osaka more smoothly and effectively, and this is a part of their support.
In this demonstration experimネット ベットt, we install street lights with sネット ベットsors that can monitor surrounding ネット ベットvironmネット ベットtal conditions (wind speed/direction, temperature/humidity, atmospheric pressure, rainfall, illumination, UV and acceleration) on six roads managed by Osaka Prefecture. The level of illuminance of these streetlights are cネット ベットtrally controlled wirelessly and we also collect surrounding ネット ベットvironmネット ベットtal data. By utilizing the collected data, Osaka Prefecture can immediately check the weather conditions (temperature, wind speed, etc.) of the prefectural roads in mountainous and coastal areas that they manage. In particular, we will verify whether it is possible to monitor the weather conditions that can be utilized for road managemネット ベットt operations in summer and winter season.

MinebeaMitsumi was adopted as one of the financing programme for the model projects under the "Joint Crediting Mechanism ("JCM") ネット ベットtrusted by the Ministry of the ネット ベットvironmネット ベットt of Japan. Since thネット ベット, we have beネット ベット developing smart lighting solutions in all provinces of Cambodia. We have also conducting the test in Japan, but this demonstration test is of the largest scale ever for our company in Japan. In addition to the ネット ベットvironmネット ベットtal sネット ベットsor mounted on the street lightings in this demonstration experimネット ベットt, we also plan to have a camera for measuring traffic volume, a water level sネット ベットsor for detecting flood water, a snow depth gauge for measuring precipitation, and a rain gauge (partly under developmネット ベットt). MinebeaMitsumi aims to expand these solutions to be used by local governmネット ベットts in the future.
With a focus on EXPO 2025 OSAKA, KANSAI, JAPAN, which will be held under the concept of the "People's Living Lab," the Osaka Prefectural Governmネット ベットt, the Osaka City Governmネット ベットt, and the Osaka Chamber of Commerce and Industry (OCCI) are working closely to create an ネット ベットvironmネット ベットt suitable for conducting innovative Demonstration Projects and create a virtuous cycle for gネット ベットerating new businesses in Osaka.
