IoT Solutions (NCXX Inc.)
IoT refers to a system that automates various controls by enabling “things” such as sensors and devices connected through the Internet to exchange data with each other. One key advantage of M2M is that it enables data communication between devices without any human intervention. For this reason, M2M has been introduced not just to PCs and servers, but to a diverse array of fields, including management of driving conditions through integration with vehicle driving management systems, inventory management for vending machines and related monitoring of malfunctions and other issues, remote surveillance and monitoring for faults and so forth of elevators and ATMs, remote readings of water, electricity and gas meters, and security measures.
Agricultural ICT (NCXX Inc.)
Since 2012, the NCXX Group has been operating the NCXX FARM agricultural ICT business with a view to applying its telecommunication technology assets in the field of agriculture.
