Announcement of a special exhibition from the Takaya Group's Karyō Otsuka Museum of Art: "Yamabe Yasushi Exhibition: Flowers and Gold - Two Different Times - Yamabe Yasushi Evanescence and Eternity - Flower/Gold."
The exhibition of Taiji Yamabe at the Kairaku Otsuka Museum focuses on the captivating motifs and materials of "nature" and "shine" in art. It will showcase the "Flower" series from the late 1980s, which served as the starting point for Yamabe's work, as well as the "GOLD PAINTING" series from the early 2000s. Both series garnered significant attention in the art scene at the time and continue to exude fresh energy. The "flower," as a symbol of the moment, intersects with "GOLD," a symbol of eternity, creating a blend of the ordinary and the extraordinary. The visual and sensory experiences that intersect in these two different times quietly present the imagery of the works and deepen our understanding of the existence and perception of objects. This summer, I hope to share a rich time of appreciation of Yamabe's works with many people. Exhibition Period: July 15, 2023 (Saturday) – September 10, 2023 (Sunday) Opening Hours: 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM (Admission until 4:30 PM) Closed: Mondays (the following day if a holiday) Admission Fee: General 800 (700) yen, High School Students 500 (400) yen, Elementary and Junior High School Students 300 (250) yen *The prices in parentheses are group discount rates for 20 or more people.

The wireless theft prevention system "Wi-dimo" has been certified as a recommended product by the JEOS Japan Shoplifting Prevention System Association.
The conventional shoplifting prevention system involved installing security gates (antennas) at the entrance and exit, which would alert when products with security tags were taken out without payment. This system triggers an alarm when products with dedicated security tags are taken out of the radio wave area surrounded by the antennas, and the alarm automatically stops when the products are returned to the radio wave area. It is a system that can meet a wide range of needs, such as having multiple entrances and exits, wanting to place products near the entrance, or wanting to secure only specific areas. Additionally, this system uses products designed and manufactured in Japan and has been tested for safety by specialized radio wave inspection organizations.

Exhibiting at Internepcon 2023!! We have released a demo video of the simple RF shielding gate for UHF band RFID that enables bulk reading of containers on YouTube.
We have released a demo video showcasing bulk reading of containers, using the UHF band RFID "Inventory Management Plugin Package," which is designed for inventory management in logistics sites. Please watch it through the related links below. This package absorbs the "control of RFID reading and writing," which tends to be a barrier to RFID implementation, thereby reducing development effort and enabling smooth integration with core systems. Additionally, the aluminum frame of the radio wave shielding gate uses commercially available materials, achieving a cost that is approximately one-tenth that of typical RFID gates. Its easy installation and mobility make it applicable in various fields such as logistics, healthcare, manufacturing, and apparel. We will be demonstrating this system at 'Internepcon 2023,' held at Tokyo Big Sight from January 25 to 27, 2023. We invite you to visit our booth and see the actual product. We look forward to seeing you at Hall 2, Booth 11-40.
