“Super Smart Society × Industry 5.0”
As DX (Digital Transformation) advances, production and process management of the entire factory in the era of the super smart society are expected to be drastically changed. By actively utilizing ICT technologies such as AI, ML and CPS, it is expected to evolve into the holistic process more efficient and highly accurate. Furthermore, the cooperation of robots and humans, holographic communication, fusion with VR/AR/MR, etc. are to help evolve the industrial structure and production into an innovative framework.
In the 7th Super Smart Society Promotion Forum entitled “Super Smart Society x Industry 5.0,” innovative technologies and cutting-edge knowledge will be introduced, where we will discuss a wide range of themes such as the elemental technologies that will support the next-generation production, and the future super smart society the technologies will lead to. In addition, future vision will also be discussed.
