- The following is content from the press release -
VISH Corporation (headquartered in Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture; Hiroyuki Tabuchi, Representative Director) announces that its cloud service "Garden Support System + Bus Catch," which streamlines the operations of kindergartens and daycare centers, will begin system integration with "Riri Funappu CO₂Aizu," a space monitoring system using CO₂ sensors provided by YEC Solutions, Inc. (headquartered in Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture; Hisanobu Iwasaki, President), has started system linkage with the CO₂ sensor-based space monitoring system "Ririfuppu CO₂izu" provided by YEC Solutions, Inc.
Through this linkage, CO₂ concentration is constantly displayed on the facility management screen of the "Park Support System + Bus Catch", making it possible to grasp the timing of effective ventilation.

On the right side of the "Garden Support System + Bath Catch" top page, the CO₂ concentration, temperature, and humidity of the room where the sensor is installed are constantly displayed.
Background of Collaboration
Regarding the infection situation of the new coronavirus, the number of new cases of infection is rapidly increasing in kindergartens, nursery schools, and certified child care centers.
The Subcommittee on Countermeasures to Combat New Coronavirus Infections reported that there were scattered cases of infections in facilities where clusters occurred frequently, which may have been caused by inadequate ventilation.
The importance of ventilation has been reaffirmed, but for kindergartens and nursery schools, which have traditionally had a heavy workload, this will place a new work burden on them.
To alleviate some of these concerns, we have developed a service that notifies faculty and staff when it is time to ventilate their rooms.
In the "Key Points for Effective Ventilation" presented by the subcommittee, the use of CO₂ sensors is also considered effective as a method of checking whether the required ventilation volume is being met.

*System linkage is available to facilities that subscribe to both services. In addition, an application is required for system linkage.
About "Riri Fuppu CO₂izu
RiriFunappu CO₂izu uses a CO₂ sensor to visualize the indoor environment and monitor it on the application.
In addition, a push notification is sent to the application when CO₂ concentrations become high, allowing the user to know in real time when to ventilate the room.
