Smart Tile Saver® Wins the Grand Prize at the 27th Automatic Identification System Awards

We are pleased to announce that Smart Tile Saver®, our jointly developed exterior wall tile delamination detection system created in collaboration with Takenaka Corporation, has been awarded the Grand Prize at the 27th Automatic Identification System Awards, organized by the Japan Automatic Identification Systems Association (JAISA).

About the Automatic Identification System Awards

The Automatic Identification System Awards recognize systems that address social challenges through the implementation of innovative technologies. Entries are evaluated comprehensively based on their uniqueness, usefulness, impact, and social contribution, with the Grand Prize awarded to the single most outstanding system.

Award-Winning System: Smart Tile Saver®

Smart Tile Saver® is a groundbreaking system that uses infrared cameras—or drones equipped with infrared cameras—to capture images of building exteriors. The data is then automatically analyzed by AI to detect delamination in exterior wall tiles at the level of individual tiles. (The system also automatically recognizes the number of tiles.)

Key Features & Benefits:

  • Enables safe and efficient exterior wall inspections without the need for scaffolding
  • Automatically visualizes inspection results on thermal images, improving efficiency and transparency
  • Contributes to digital transformation (DX) in building maintenance, while reducing costs and addressing workforce shortages

This prestigious award encourages us to further accelerate our research, development, and practical implementation efforts, so that we may continue to contribute to technological innovation in the industry and the safe maintenance of social infrastructure.

We sincerely appreciate your continued guidance and support.
