Hirosaki City: Stickers with QR codes on fingernails to identify protected elderly people.
https://www3.nhk.or.jp/lnews/aomori/20240828/6080023466.html
We received a proposal from a customer who uses “Jell Nail QR Code Stickers” for a new way to use them. Specifically, he suggested that QR Code stickers could be used on canes, watch belts, and clothing belts, in addition to fingernails.
While we appreciate the suggestion, we do not recommend the use of QR Code Stickers on anything other than fingernails. The reason for this is that the surface of a fingernail is relatively flat and hard, and we have tested the durability of the seals many times, but the materials and shapes of a cane, watch belt, or clothing belt vary widely, and it is difficult to test under all circumstances.
The Japan Center for International Exchange (JCIE) (Tokyo: President Isao Kano, hereinafter referred to as “JCIE”) and the Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia (Jakarta: Secretary General Tetsuya Watanabe, hereinafter referred to as “ERIA”) held a study tour from November 6 to 10, inviting organizations working on aging issues in Asian countries to Japan with the aim of learning about Japanese policies, systems and practices to support elderly people.
Organizations from Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore, and China working on aging in Asia came to Japan to learn about Japan’s policies, systems, and practices for addressing aging.
On Thursday, November 9, the tour group visited our company. We introduced the development process of the “QR code Nail sticker system for fingernails” to watch over elderly people with dementia, as well as our efforts in this area.
QR codes can be used not only to watch over the elderly, but also in many other aspects.For example, CWAP (Children, Women, Aged People, Pregnancy/passenger and poor people).
All of us will do our best so that our product “QR Code Stickers” can be used in your country.

We think that the fact that the high cost relative to the cost is high, as shown by the fact that “although it is low technology, it is low cost”.
In addition, unlike the surveillance society, I believe that the nail Q-sticker has been highly evaluatedas a watch over type tool by the local community, including government and volunteer groups.
We intend to expand our “QR Sticker” worldwide, starting with Asian countries.Even a trivial question is fine. Please feel free to contact us.

We explained that our “QR Code Jell Nail Sticker System” is a low technology (low-tec) but low cost (low-cost) system that is easy to introduce for government, nursing care facilities, and individuals.
In Iruma City, Saitama Prefecture, about 300 people put a “QR Code Sticker” with identity verification informationon their nails and lived a safety life with a mechanism that allows them to return to their familiar homes even if they go missing.

We obtained a patent for a watching system that applies AR (Augmented Reality) graphic recognition technology.
A jell nail sticker with a character or graphic mark is attached to the nails, and a patent is obtained with a mechanism to confirm the identity of the missing person .
This is an example of applying AR (Augmented Reality) graphic recognition technology in order to take advantage of the “effective utilization of QR codes” that we have been proposing since the beginning of 2021.
We have developed a business with a scheme to confirm the identity of elderly people who are wandering around with a QR code jell nail sticker on their nails.
In the future, while advancing the watching business, we will also propose new business areas that develop “effective utilization of QR codes & various sensors”.
●”Contactless payment AR system” that reads characters or graphic marks with a dedicated application and makes payments
●”VR running system utilizing various sensor” to extend healthy life expectancy
● “Finger gymnastics dementia prevention system utilizing displacement sensor & image recognition tool” for elderly facilities
●Bus approach information / advertising / tourism system” with a QR code installed at the bus stop
We have jointly developed a new jell nail sticker with TV Saitama Co., Ltd. & Aioi Nissay Dowa Insurance Company MS&AD INSURANCE GROUP.
We have added an insurance function when a lost child or elderly person is injured.
“Training for saying something to anyone wandering away” was conducted by collaboration with railroad company & police station.
A training calling out to correctly understand dementia and to learn how to contact with people who are wandering and to protect it was held on November 18 (Sun) in Iruma-city, Saitama Prefecture. This time, the closest railroad company and the nearest police station worked together.
This initiative is held four times a year, each year by self-governing associations and civil society groups in nine districts of Iruma-city. A local junior high school student also participated and a “Training for saying something to anyone wandering away” was carried out and participants who discovered a wandering person contacted a station staff member or a police box member and simulated until protection.

In Iruma City, where aging is progressing, the proportion of current elderly people is 28.1%. About 15 disaster-prevention radio broadcasts pertaining to the lost person seem to be broadcasted annually.
For these reasons, our company’s QR code seal was registered telephone number for identity verification has been distributed to those who are afraid of wandering people.
Denmark is also ranked number one country again in “Ranking of Happiness” and is famous as a happy superpower. The society in Denmark is also called “mature society”, and social welfare services that are fulfilling enough that Japan can not think is free of medical expenses, birthing expenses, educational expenses etc. are provided. Of course, nursing care is one of them, so they can receive a full range of care and welfare services.
