Zero One is a Japanese technology firm that develops digital twin and IoT solutions to monitor and analyze physical spaces in real time. Founded in July 2019 by Takashi Uchiyama, the company is headquartered in Hamamatsu with offices in Tokyo and Nagoya. Uchiyama, who has a 17-year background in retail, marketing, and systems development, was inspired by VR technology he encountered in a real estate division, leading him to conceptualize the use of digital twins as a user interface linked to the real world.
The company's core business involves creating solutions that combine 3D scanning, IoT sensors, and digital twin platforms to improve business efficiency and safety. Its clients are primarily in the manufacturing and facilities management sectors. Zero One has developed patented and proprietary systems such as "no-miz" and "ZEKOOPAT.P". The "no-miz" system focuses on monitoring air quality and congestion to mitigate infectious disease risks, using privacy-conscious avatars to represent people instead of cameras. The "ZEKOOPAT.P" platform is a device-free solution for manufacturers that analyzes worker behavior and monitors equipment and environmental conditions on a digital twin, providing real-time operational status and suggesting tasks.
Zero One has received recognition and support through programs like J-Startup CENTRAL, which aids promising startups with global potential. The company is a venture capital-backed private entity and has secured seed funding from investors including Hamamatsu Iwata Shinkin Bank and Nagoya Capital Partners. By integrating detailed 3D point cloud data with live IoT feeds, the firm provides clients with actionable insights into people flow, equipment status, and environmental changes, enabling rapid response to operational issues.
