Collaborative Implementation of Robot IP Templates

AI Data Corporation, headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, led by CEO Takahito Sasaki, has partnered with LegalTech Corporation, also based in Minato, Tokyo, with CEO Tomoyuki Hirai at the helm, to accelerate the use of domestic physical AI technology. They have started implementing 'Robot IP Templates' using their AI intellectual property platform 'Tokkyo.Ai' and the robotics intelligence foundation 'AI Robotics on IDX'.

Background

The Japanese robotics sector has accumulated advanced control, sensing, and robotics technologies across various fields such as factory automation, automated transportation, and caregiving assistance. However, the industry has faced significant challenges, particularly in its inability to effectively commercialize intellectual property due to the individualized nature of development know-how. To address these issues, both companies have been working on creating a comprehensive system that facilitates the clarification, rights management, and distribution of technical assets.

Challenges Faced

• - Knowledge and technical know-how are often confined within companies, making external sharing and collaborative research difficult.
• - Patent strategies and intellectual property management are not functioning optimally, limiting revenue opportunities.
• - Intellectual property assets are fragmented and difficult to systematize, hindering cross-industry reuse.

Proposed Solutions

The initiative aims to build an infrastructure that streamlines project management from planning to manufacturing, intellectual property acquisition, and management by registering and managing templates of robotics control technologies based on 'Tokkyo.Ai', in conjunction with 'AI Robotics on IDX'.

Key Points of the Service/Technology

• - Template Creation for Robotics Technologies: Knowledge, past manufacturing manuals, and process management methods cultivated within companies will be templated and stored in the knowledge-driven team drive on IDX.
• - Intellectual Property Protection via Tokkyo.Ai: The platform will provide a management foundation to support intellectual property strategies through organization and structuring of technical information, prior art research, and streamlining the application preparation process.
• - Utilization and Management of Generative AI on AI Robotics on IDX: Offers access management on VDR platforms, allowing secure data retrieval from external partners without accounts, accurate responses via generative AI from templates stored in the knowledge team drive, and safe management and sharing of documents generated through Tokkyo.Ai.

Expected Benefits

• - Enhanced reusability through visualization and standardization of robotics technologies.
• - Creation of new revenue opportunities through intellectual property licensing.
• - Promotion of technology distribution between companies and research institutions, fostering advanced collaboration.

Future Prospects

AI Data Corporation plans to expand cooperation with robotics ventures, medium-sized manufacturers, and university research institutions to advance its initiatives. The two companies aim to contribute to the establishment of a domestic physical AI economy by integrating AI, intellectual property, and data platforms into an industrial model.

About AI Data Corporation
