Exhibitors present on challenges and development methods required in new technology areas,
product technologies, etc., incorporating their own case studies.
Through exchanges of opinions with visitors,
it is expected that hints leading to needs discovery and product development can be obtained.
We invite top engineers, experts, and knowledgeable professionals from leading companies in the industry
to discuss the technical fields necessary for future mobility, current challenges, trends, and prospects.
Each lecture duration is approximately 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Advances in SDV (Software-Defined Vehicle) technology and the implementation of autonomous driving systems are expected to enable automobiles to deliver new value and services. Consequently, the environment surrounding the automotive industry—including its structure, development processes, and key technologies—is poised for significant transformation. Against this backdrop, I will discuss the government's strategy and future outlook.


It has been over two years since the term SDV began gaining traction. It has even appeared in mainstream media as “software-defined vehicle.” Yet when asked, “What exactly is an SDV?” even industry insiders often respond vaguely, saying things like, “Well, there are various definitions.” This presentation will discuss the true meaning of SDV and, based on that understanding, explore the essential approaches required.


We introduce the democratization of autonomous driving expanding on the foundation of open-source Autoware, along with the latest trends and practical knowledge in End-to-End technology poised to become the next-generation standard.


Physical foundation models that integrate visual, linguistic, and behavioral processing are gaining attention not only in autonomous driving but across diverse fields. This presentation will clearly introduce their progress and current state, incorporating Turing's latest development examples.


Expectations are growing for mobility services powered by Level 4 autonomous driving, which eliminates the need for drivers, as a future means of transportation. However, various challenges must be addressed to realize this vision, including safety, service operation and business viability, and user acceptance. This section introduces Nissan Motor Company's development and demonstration initiatives aimed at tackling these challenges.


For Japan to continue growing in the future, it is essential to enhance the appeal of its regions, including tourist destinations, and operate them sustainably. Within this context, I will discuss the current challenges in the indispensable “mobility” that connects these areas, and the new possibilities offered by services such as shared rides (carpooling and ride-sharing).


We aim to eliminate drunk driving violations and tragic accidents. By integrating over 70 years of automotive key technology with the latest digital keys, we strive to realize a safe and secure society through DX, utilizing a system that prevents the engine from starting after alcohol consumption.


Japan's social challenges—including the growing number of people with mobility difficulties and shortages in medical staff and drivers—are rapidly worsening. How can we solve these issues by combining mobility with systems and data? We introduce the “MaaS Frontline,” where teams are working tirelessly every day, listening to the voices of local governments and residents on the ground.


NTT DOCOMO introduces real-world applications of its mobile spatial statistics technology, which estimates “who is where and when” 24/7, including solutions for social challenges and AI-based traffic congestion prediction.


Our company aims to contribute to solving grid challenges by utilizing EVs, which are gaining traction amid the momentum toward carbon neutrality, as distributed energy resources (DERs) within the power grid. To this end, we will collaborate with overseas utilities SMUD and HECO to investigate control methods for DER utilization.


Electric vehicles used by transportation operators (route buses, delivery trucks) are equipped with larger-capacity batteries compared to passenger-type electric vehicles. This necessitates multiple rapid chargers even for basic charging within company facilities. We introduce a new concept in rapid charger technology that solves this challenge.


Toyota Motor Corporation is advancing initiatives to achieve Carbon Neutrality (CN) and a Circular Economy (CE) based on the Toyota Environmental Challenge 2050. This presentation will introduce our efforts related to CO₂ reduction and resource circulation.


We will explain the situation surrounding hydrogen as an energy source (including Japanese government policies) and our company's initiatives for hydrogen stations aimed at realizing a hydrogen society.
