- The following is content from the press release -

 (Head office: Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture; Representative Director: Yuichiro Kuki; hereafter "the Company"), provider of the "cocolin" preschool child monitoring solution, has acquired a utility model (Registration No. 3247268) for the "Ohirune Band," a monitoring item to prevent accidents involving napping (hereafter "nap") at daycare centers. (hereinafter referred to as "the Company") has acquired a utility model (Registration No. 3247268) for the "Ohirune Band," an item for watching over children to prevent accidents at daycare centers.

Sleeping on one's back is considered one of the risk factors for "sudden infant death syndrome.

 It is said that putting young children to sleep on their stomachs increases the incidence of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. In order to more accurately detect the risk of "sudden infant death syndrome," we have been developing the "Ohirune Band" together with sensor technology.

 The problem with the sensor attached only to clothing has been the risk of false detection, where the sensor moves around due to wrapping around clothing or twisting of the body, and thus cannot detect a prone sleeper as a prone sleeper.
The "Ohirune Band" developed this time has a unique technology that does not shift or rotate even in a belly-wrap type, and has been recognized for its more accurate detection of nocturnal sleep, resulting in a significant increase in sales.

 The band is adjustable so that it can be used for preschoolers with different stomach circumferences. The adjustable hook and loop fastener is made of fiber, so there are no burrs, and it is made of a safe material that will not damage the child's skin, comforter or toweling blanket.

We will continue to improve our services for the "safety" of children and "peace of mind" for their parents.
