summary
Focusing on the “future image” of sustainable and resilient development of cities, we will build a future city information infrastructure that operates in a backcast direction starting from a “future image” created/edited/shared by diverse people in a virtual space, and in particular, we will conduct wide-area demonstrations in the southern Shonan region of Kanagawa prefecture in terms of environment and disaster prevention.
By orchestrating urban cyber physical systems, we will effectively utilize the Beyond 5G network, link cyber and physical, operate cooperatively between disparate systems, and create basic technology that generates, distributes, and presents super-resolution information that contributes to human behavior change in real time and adaptively.

Research and development items and responsibilities
Kadincheʼs Research Topics
Virtual Future City Creation Technology: Integration of 3D city data with various simulation data
Our research and development item in this project is virtual future city creation technology. We use this as 3D city data
We are working on research and development using XR technology. These technologies are smart, such as digital twins and metaverses
It is mainly used for visualization and simulation to achieve tosity. Specific examples are given below, but our company
We are working on the development of prototypes that can be experienced in 3D and from a first-person perspective (VR: virtual reality) by utilizing smart city-related data such as 3D city data, traffic volume simulations, human flow simulations, and flooding simulations.
Virtual Future City Creation Technology: City-Scale Mixed Reality (MR) Technology
In addition, we are developing systems using mixed reality (MR: mixed reality) technology to visualize the positive future state “killer verse” of the city and the negative future state “yabberth” in real space. We are also working on research and development of MR systems that go beyond the MR conversion of indoor narrow spaces that have already been realized, target outdoor wide-area spaces, and can also be used not only by walking users, but also by users riding on mobile vehicles.
