Creaton of Ambient Intelligence Basis for Improvement of QOL in Information Society(2010-2013)

This project seeks to create a basic platform for ambient intelligence, which allows our environment to function as a single intelligent unit through a network of cameras and sensors, installed and integrated into and throughout the community. It is based on the concept of the ubiquitous network society, where information processing is networked throughout every aspect of the social community. The project also aims to promote the realization of a safe, secure and comfortable life space for all members of society through the application of ambient intelligence.

IT specialist fostering program (2007-)

In a project started by MEXT in 2006, the School conducted two programs, pushing for highly professional training: the “IT Specialist Program Initiative for Reality-based Advanced Learning (IT-Spiral)” and the “IT specialist program to promote Key Engineers as securitY Specialists (IT-Keys)”. The experience from these programs has been reflected in the School's standard curriculum even after MEXT completed the project.
