Morpho and ITEC Hankyu Hanshin Team Up for Mass-Trans Innovation Japan 2025

Morpho and ITEC Hankyu Hanshin Join Forces

Morpho, a Tokyo-based leader in image processing and AI technology, will collaborate with ITEC Hankyu Hanshin for the upcoming "9th Mass-Trans Innovation Japan 2025" exhibition at Makuhari Messe. The event is set to occur from November 26 to 29, 2025. Together, they will present innovative solutions leveraging Morpho's advanced technologies integrated into ITEC's showcase.

Focus on Cutting-Edge AI Technologies

This year's exhibition will primarily highlight AI technologies based on in-car camera footage. Key features include self-calibration technology and AI summarization of video content, specifically targeting the automotive sector. Attendees can also participate in mini-seminars designed to educate and inspire, offering insights into both companies' latest advancements.

Background of the Joint Exhibit

Since its inception in 2010, the Mass-Trans Innovation Japan exhibition has served as a key platform for diverse railway and transportation systems, covering aspects such as infrastructure technology, power, and operational management. Amidst a growing demand for digital transformation (DX) in the railway industry, prompted by a shortage of workforce, Morpho aims to address challenges within the sector by leveraging its AI-powered image recognition technology developed for automotive and industrial IoT applications.

Featured Products

AI Assistance Tool for Vehicle Inspection

This tool uses generative AI (Visual Language Model - VLM) to analyze footage captured from cameras situated in front of a train. It identifies abnormalities along railway lines through existing onboard cameras or dashcam footage without requiring any special training. This cutting-edge tool streamlines the inspection process and enhances safety measures in the railway sector.

AI-Powered Video Search Engine

Users can efficiently find specific scenes from lengthy camera recordings by simply describing the desired moments in Japanese. The generative AI harnesses this input to automatically extract and compile relevant scenes into a single video. This capability is especially useful for law enforcement, where officers can quickly access pertinent footage for investigative purposes, eliminating the need for painstaking manual review of vast amounts of data.

Auto-Calibration for Image Distortion Correction

Utilizing advanced technology to automatically detect and correct discrepancies caused by factors such as camera positioning, angle, and vibrations, this function enhances the clarity of footage from multiple security cameras installed within a train. By aligning and calibrating visual data, operators can more easily monitor real-time situations inside the vehicle.

Mini-Seminar Schedule

During the exhibition, daily mini-seminars will be hosted at the Morpho and ITEC booth. Participation requires no prior registration, encouraging visitors to drop by. Note that topics and times may be subject to change. The schedule is as follows:

- 10:30-10:45: Leveraging Generative AI
- 11:30-11:45: Overview of Three Management Frameworks
- 13:30-13:45: Leveraging Generative AI
- 14:30-14:45: Introduction to the Train Monitoring Service "ToreMoni"
- 15:30-15:45: Overview of Three Management Frameworks
