What is “Wellendorff”?

Wellendorff was founded in 1893 by Ernst Alexander and Julie Wellendorff and created jewelry for European royal families. In 1936, the second generation, Dr. Alexander Wellendorff, began manufacturing gold signet rings using a special press, which attracted many women. In 1960, Hanspeter Wellendorff took over the company and demonstrated his talents for innovation and creativity with his wife Eva. The brand's trademark 'Diamond W' and the brand's icon, the delicate gold 'Silk Cordel' necklace, were born. Christoph in 1991 and Georg, Christoph's younger brother, joined Wellendorff in 1993. He continues to bring innovation to the history of jewelry by designing original and highly transparent “cold enamels”. Wellendorff has created the most beautiful jewelry inspired by the love of family. Its unwavering roots lie in a family business, with a history spanning over a century and the story of its founders continuing to the present day.

Wellendorff, 4th generation chef and CEO

“The basis of manufacturing is the love of family,” says Christoph Wellendorff-Wellendorff, fourth-generation owner and CEO of the company, speaking of his passion for creating. Wellendorff's three icons are unique jewels born from the love for his wife. “I designed the cold enamel ring as the first ring I would give to my wife. Enamel tends to break easily, but to give it as an unbreakable symbol of love, I didn't give up and I made many prototypes to develop a cold enamel ring, an enamel ring that would not break. I wanted to surprise people,” he says of the context behind the creation of the icon. The reason it has received huge support from fans around the world is because it is “made with love and has real value.” In addition, it is made by highly skilled goldsmiths selected from around the world and is worn in a unique way. It's so comfortable. From the moment you put it on, you can tell it's a Wellendorff even with your eyes closed. Innovation born from family love and uncompromising manufacturing supported by advanced know-how are linked to the Japanese culture that values ​​quality. “We intend to continue innovating jewelry in order to evolve with the times. For this reason, it is important that we are a family business. We hope that Wellendorff jewelry can serve as a keepsake of life and of the bridge that connects happiness.

The future opened with multimodal AI technology |

The future opened with multimodal AI technology |

At NTT Data, we focus on “review work” performed by qualified experts as the ultimate goal of multimodal AI.

Currently, many tasks such as inspections and controls carried out in various industries are carried out based on the intuition and experience of veterans, which makes it difficult to fully convert them into logic and systematization. Challenges include automation to cope with the increase and training difficulties. successors and the transmission of know-how.

Multimodal AI should be a solution to these problems.

For example, in the process of considering the novelty of illustrations, when humans judge novelty, they use not only the applied illustration but also the explanatory information attached to the application form to identify similar works in the past. Multimodal AI, which uses images and text to search for similar illustrations that include concepts, is considered effective for this task.

Figure 2: Multimodal AI in Novelty Review

Additionally, as part of our fraudulent goods inspection work, we select suspicious goods based on multi-faceted appearance information such as weight, color, shape, shipper details and recipient and printing characteristics. Multimodal AI, which uses 3D information, images, text and table data to determine the suspicious appearance of cargo, is considered effective for this task.

NTT Data is also developing technology to automate and improve the automation and sophistication of various screening operations that require integrated judgment based on various information, such as loan screening, insurance screening and vehicle inspection.

Society 5.0 – Creating a future together – Policy (Proposal/Report)

Society 5.0 - Creating a future together - Policy (Proposal/Report)

What is society 5.0?

Society 5.0 means a new society that follows the hunting society (society 1.0), agricultural society (society 2.0), industrial society (society 3.0) and information society (society 4.0), and is based on the 5th scientific and technological principles of government. The idea was first proposed in the plan (January 2016). Although the idea originally arose from Japan's science and technology policy, it is now spreading around the world as a vision of the future society that Japan and the world should aspire to, and it is gaining momentum. popularity not only with government but also in industry and academia. This is something we are working on together.

Currently, innovative digital technologies such as AI, IoT, and blockchain are advancing, and as these technologies are data-driven, the way society operates is poised to change significantly. This wave of digital transformation (digital innovation) will never stop and is considered the trigger for human society to move to the next stage.

The Science and Technology Basic Plan defines Society 5.0 as “a human-centered society (superhuman society) that achieves both economic development and social problem solving through a system that strongly integrates cyberspace (virtual space) and physical space (real space). intelligent society).

The 5.0 society we envision: a creative society

Keidanren participated in discussions from the creation of the concept of Society 5.0 to the formulation of the 5th Science and Technology Basic Plan, and advanced various discussions and proposal activities for its promotion.

In July 2018, we launched the Future Society Collaborative Creation Council, chaired by President Nakanishi, to comprehensively discuss various issues related to realizing Society 5.0, deepen the concept we will present to the world, and work to its realization. action plan to achieve this goal and published the proposal entitled “Society 5.0 – Creating the future together”.

The proposal proposed to qualify Society 5.0, described as a “super intelligent society”, as a “creative society”. In the human-centered society that Society 5.0 aims for, the main goal is not to achieve convenience and efficiency, but to enable humans to use digital technology and data to demonstrate their imagination and their diverse creativity. society together. Society 5.0 is a creative society, “a society that solves social problems and creates value through the fusion of digital innovation and the imagination and creativity of diverse people.”

Japan Action Plan

Japan has the potential to lead the way in realizing this society, but there are areas where changes are needed in every area. The proposal presents a reform action plan divided into four categories: “Business”, “People”, “Government/National Land” and “Data and Technology”.

We recognize that what is particularly important is business transformation. Keidanren will serve as a standard bearer and lead various reforms.

KDDI Accelerate 5.0

Three layers that form a new social infrastructure will create new lifestyles and resilient businesses.


Changes in the external environment can quickly cause people to lose their sense of security in their lives and their businesses can no longer survive.
COVID-19 has clearly shown the fragility of our society.

What is needed to create a society capable of responding flexibly to changes in the external environment?

The buzzword currently garnering attention is “DX,” or digital transformation.

DX is not about making a company's operations more efficient through digital technology.

DX is the use of digital technology to reconstruct the social environment, including businesses and individual lives.

Until now, most businesses have been flow-based. The basic idea was to provide products and services to customers who visited the store. So, if physical activities were reduced, business would come to a halt.

As DX advances, this relationship between businesses and customers will change significantly. On next-generation networks, it is also possible to offer customers experiences that are richer than the real world. As the merger of the internet and the real world accelerates, it will be possible to establish ongoing engagement with customers and move to recurring business models such as subscriptions.

The development of strong and diversified businesses makes the lives of citizens safer and more prosperous. Everyone will be able to work freely according to their lifestyle, and everyone will be able to benefit from advanced distance learning and telemedicine services, as well as enriching entertainment and leisure.

However, simply having a network in place does not automatically lead to DX.

KDDI believes that to build a new social infrastructure, it is essential to develop three layers: the “network layer”, the “platform layer” and the “business layer”.




network layer
1.

Introducing advanced technology of international standards,

Accelerate the penetration of 5G networks in Japanese society
TO DO

The foundation of the new social infrastructure is the “network layer,” which accelerates the flow of information between physical space and cyberspace. The 5G network that will be at the center of this project will achieve ultra-high speed, large capacity, ultra-low latency and multiple simultaneous connections, and will have a huge impact on all industries.

For 5G networks to penetrate Japanese society and industry, it is necessary to deploy highly reliable networks based on the latest technologies nationwide as quickly as possible.

KDDI will accelerate the nationwide deployment of 5G networks through proactive upfront investment and infrastructure sharing in rural areas. As the use of 5G services in the mainstream market advances through the introduction of high-quality areas, attractive devices and new services, the use of IoT for various industries can also be enabled.

In addition, KDDI is rapidly implementing advanced technology that meets international standards in Japan to maintain Japan's international competitiveness. At the same time, we promote openness to establish a robust supply chain and work with government agencies and related organizations to build a secure network capable of responding to increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks.


platform layer
2.

An open platform environment with cutting-edge technology

Accelerate the construction of Japan's future social systemTO DO

Above the network layer is the “platform layer”, which analyzes data accumulated in physical space in cyberspace and feeds the prediction results back to physical space to create new value never seen before.

KDDI will combine 5G networks with cutting-edge cloud technology from global IT companies, while also collaborating with the platforms of Japanese venture capital companies and domestic companies to create an open platform environment with technology of peak for each sector in Japan. he.

Once the technological environment for data processing is in place, various consumer and business platforms will be launched. Typical examples include “personal agents” that propose optimal actions and options to consumers, “industrial data platforms” that implement optimal economic mechanisms, and “cities” that operate social systems that ensure safety and security.

These platforms will work in harmony in real time and various businesses will thrive because of this.


business layer
3.

From large companies to startups,

Accelerating DX in Japan through open innovation

The business layer is located on a strong network and open platform and creates new services and solutions.

Since the platform layer handles processing such as data collection and analysis, each business can focus on activities that leverage its strengths.

Using an open platform environment will foster partnerships and innovation between businesses. Companies from different sectors join forces and combine the strengths and know-how of different sectors to merge cyberspace and physical space. By creating new engagement with customers, you can move to a recurring model and evolve into a resilient business.

KDDI has formed a partner alliance that includes participants from various industries, from large corporations to startups. In addition, the open innovation hub “KDDI DIGITAL GATE” has assets such as workshops based on design thinking and prototyping by an agile development team. By co-creating with many companies and promoting DX in every sector, we aim to develop the Japanese economy and create a society with a bright future.


Achieve an optimized lifestyle for each consumer,

Accelerate towards building a dynamic societycontinue to do


What type of society will we live in in the future?


Some people can imagine a future in which autonomous cars, drones, and robots make our daily lives easier and we enjoy virtual reality entertainment. There is no doubt that there are many useful products and services that are not yet available.


However, new social infrastructure will not only generate practical products and services.


The most significant change brought about by the new social infrastructure is the creation of “feedback loops” throughout society. What exactly is this feedback loop?


We live with many challenges and frustrations every day. It could be a minor problem or dissatisfaction, such as not being able to find clothes that you like, or a serious problem or dissatisfaction related to your health or your job.


In today's society, it takes time and effort to resolve the problems and dissatisfactions of each individual.


However, with the advent of social infrastructure connecting physical space and cyberspace, this situation will change radically.


The situations and conditions of people living in physical space are captured by sensors around us and sent to cyberspace. In cyberspace, people search for ways to resolve their dissatisfaction and satisfy their desires, and the results are echoed in physical space.


Thanks to this feedback loop, the optimization of social and economic activities is constantly progressing. Services are more efficient and convenient, with less wasted resources and manpower. As consumers, we have more time and each of us can use it in our own way. In an era where new social infrastructures exist, it is possible to naturally balance harmony with society and individual freedom.


Such an era is not a distant future.


In a few years, if you reach out a little. KDDI technology puts the future in our hands.



Integrating physical space and cyberspace

7 technologies


“Physical space” where real people and things exist, and “cyberspace” which is the world of computers. Rather than existing separately, the two spaces quickly become one.


Information collected in physical space is analyzed in cyberspace and returned to physical space.


This cycle is supported by seven closely related technologies.



The seven technologies are “network”, “security”, “IoT”, “platform”, “AI”, “XR” and “robotics”.


The mechanism by which information and data automatically flows between multiple systems and uses that information and data across multiple systems is called “orchestration,” and the seven technologies also work together through orchestration.


First, “networks” connect physical space and cyberspace, and “security” keeps both safe. Thanks to the secure path thus created, the IoT collects information from physical space and sends it to cyberspace.


The information accumulated on the “platform” in cyberspace is analyzed by “AI” and how to influence it in physical space is derived.


“XR” and “robotics” actually operate in physical space. “XR” works on human perception and “robotics” moves physical entities such as drones and robots.


By repeating this cycle over and over again, social and economic activities will be optimized.


With the spread of 5G, the merger of physical space and cyberspace is progressing. Data from physical space will be collected in cyberspace and various analyzes and simulations will be carried out.


Moreover, in the B5G/6G era, the feedback from cyberspace to physical space will become even stronger. KDDI's Life Design Services platform and AI, XR and robotics research that drive change in human behavior will accelerate these changes.
