Mobispace Co., Ltd.
Name of Representative: Sho Katayama
We utilize technology that analyzes 3D panoramic images to rapidly discover “microspaces” and facilitate contracts and brokerage services. Microspaces are areas smaller than a parking spot, typically found on the corners of residential buildings or roads. As the number of vacant parking spaces increases across Japan, the rise of EV technology, autonomous driving, and micro-mobility is underway. We “redefine” these spaces for new mobility solutions. Share mobility operators, in particular, seek to improve profitability, and we support them by securing “ports” for their operations. Our services extend beyond shared bicycles to include EV charging stations and vending machines for food, among others. Technically, we segment 3D panoramic images using SAM, analyzing them part by part to determine the presence of microspaces. While many startups focus on analyzing satellite images, we specialize in analyzing 3D panoramic images, an area that has yet to attract much attention.
