“Additionally a Japan OEM will begin a POC early 2023 as part of a larger project to adopt AI strategy”
I might speculate , and wildly at that ,that this statement from nViso might be that a large Japanese OEM might be adding PainChek technology into their companion robots for the elderly.
Japanese caretakers will soon be able to look at non-verbal babies’ and senior citizens’ faces and break down facial expressions to understand if they are in pain. Digital pain assessment app PainChek Limited (ASX: PCK) has announced that it is expanding its activities to Japan following its acceptance into the Japan External Trade Organisation (JETRO) Business Connect program for 2022.
JETRO is Japan’s core governmental organisation, which promotes inward foreign business. The organisation will help the Australian-based company enter the Japanese market. PainChek will be provided with Japan’s market data and a series of online business matching events connecting PainChek with local partners throughout Japan and guidance in relation to the Japanese regulatory clearance processes.
To enable the expansion, PainChek had to undergo JETRO’s screening process before qualifying to enter the market. It had to partake in a series of face-to-face meetings in London and achieve a set criteria.
PainChek’s Chief Executive Officer, Philip Daffas, commented, “A priority for JETRO was identifying companies for the program that had developed new digital healthcare technologies, with image diagnosis a specific focus point.”
“This made PainChek an outstanding candidate for JETRO and both parties are excited by the potential for collaboration with organisations in Japan and the positive outcomes it could lead to.”
PainChek intends on using this opportunity to tap into others as well. It aims to combine its offering with Japan’s high tech, devices and artificial intelligence capabilities.
