Next-Generation IoT Training Machine "HiTREX"
H&W Support Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Yo Kishi) has launched collaboration content for its next-generation IoT training machine, "HiTREX," which the company develops and sells, with the Fujitsu women's basketball team, "Fujitsu Red Wave."
HiTREX is an IoT training machine that visualizes body "movements" and exercise volume while allowing users to safely work on their hip joints, shoulders, and core muscles while seated. By combining the Human Motion Analytics Platform provided by G-Search Inc., which utilizes Fujitsu's developed skeletal estimation technology, with the sensors within the equipment, users can perform training tailored to their individual condition.
Through this initiative, users who train with HiTREX will be able to access profiles and video content of Fujitsu Red Wave players via a two-dimensional barcode displayed after their training session. By adding the enjoyment of interacting with top athletes, in addition to reviewing their exercise results, this aims to support users' motivation and commitment to exercise.
Creating opportunities for users to continue exercising is a significant challenge, not only in nursing care facilities such as day services but also in health promotion facilities and fitness clubs.
This collaboration aims to provide a new healthcare experience where users can enjoy exercising and continue their routines by visualizing their "movements" with HiTREX and creating touchpoints with top sports teams.
01 | Next-Generation Healthcare Training Utilizing Fujitsu's Human Motion Analytics
HiTREX is a next-generation IoT training machine that visualizes users' body "movements," focusing on the hip joints and shoulders, by utilizing Fujitsu's Human Motion Analytics.
Human Motion Analytics is a data analysis platform that digitizes human motion markerlessly, at high speed and with high accuracy, based on the high-precision skeletal recognition AI technology that Fujitsu has cultivated in gymnastics. By capturing even complex body movements as data, it is expected to be utilized in a wide range of fields, including sports, healthcare, and well-being.
With HiTREX, this Human Motion Analytics can visualize body movements, range of motion, and left-right differences during training. This not only makes it easier for users to understand their own body's movement characteristics but also allows facility staff to provide personalized feedback and training support.
By making motion evaluation, which traditionally required specialized knowledge and equipment, more accessible in everyday exercise environments, we aim to improve the quality of exercise support in nursing care facilities such as day services, health promotion facilities, and fitness clubs.
02 | Collaboration with Fujitsu Red Wave Player Content
Fujitsu Red Wave is a women's basketball team based in Kawasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture. They belong to the top domestic league, the W.League, and are a powerhouse team with numerous national team players and a W.League championship title.

In this initiative, we provide a system that allows access to Fujitsu Red Wave player profiles and video content through the results screen displayed after HiTREX training.
Users or facility staff can view player information and video content by scanning the two-dimensional barcode displayed on the results screen. This is expected to create new enjoyment after training and lead to increased interest and motivation to continue exercising.
Furthermore, by fostering conversations within the facility such as "which player did you watch?" or "which video was good?", we aim to promote communication among users and with staff.
03 | Future Development
H&W Support Co., Ltd. aims to further enhance the healthcare experience utilizing HiTREX, starting with this initiative.
In the future, we will propose "enjoyable and sustainable exercise habits" by combining sports teams and healthcare, including campaigns for team merchandise and game tickets. We will promote expansion to nursing care facilities, fitness clubs, and community centers, contributing to health promotion in all settings.

04 | What is "HiTREX"?
HiTREX is a next-generation IoT training machine developed and sold by H&W Support Co., Ltd. It supports the maintenance and improvement of physical functions related to walking and posture by combining unique three-dimensional movements that integrate hip joint rotational movements, core muscle exercises, and upper limb movements.
As it allows for safe exercise while seated, it is easy for the elderly and those concerned about exercise to use, contributing to improved quality of training and user satisfaction in nursing care and health promotion facilities.
Furthermore, since it can visualize data such as range of motion, left-right differences, and exercise volume during training, it is utilized for exercise support tailored to each user's condition.
Currently, it is being introduced in nursing care facilities and health promotion facilities nationwide, with over 100 units shipped in total. As of May 2026, over 4,800 users per month utilize HiTREX, with over 18,000 training sessions and over 2,500 hours of training conducted.

05 | Representative's Comment
HiTREX is a next-generation IoT training machine that supports a personalized training experience by visualizing body "movements" and exercise volume.
We are very pleased to be able to offer an experience that connects to new content from the post-training results screen through our collaboration with Fujitsu Red Wave, linking to player profiles and video content.
In nursing care facilities, health facilities, and fitness clubs, it is important to create opportunities for users to feel "enjoyment" and "want to do it again" in order to encourage them to continue exercising. We hope that by being able to access player information and videos after reviewing their training results, it will help to increase their interest in exercise and their motivation to continue.
Moving forward, under the philosophy of "Making everyone in the world healthy, smiling, and happy," we will continue to provide an environment for enjoyable and sustainable health promotion, contributing to the extension of healthy life expectancy.
