Kudan Exhibits and Demonstrates Advanced 3D Technology for Firefighting Support Solutions at the Opening Ceremony of the "Firefighting Technology Research and Development Center"

Kudan Inc. (Headquarters: Tokyo; CEO: Daio Xiang; hereinafter "Kudan") collaborated with the Tokyo Fire Department for the opening ceremony of the newly established "Firefighting Technology Research and Development Center" on Wednesday, April 1, 2026, which aims to create innovation through industry-academia-government collaboration. This center is a development base that aims for fundamental solutions to various issues surrounding fire administration through the development of innovative technologies and new operational and tactical methods. Kudan, in addition to its unique photorealistic digital twin platform "Kudan PRISM," utilized handheld scanners from its partner company XGRIDS to exhibit and demonstrate new spatial recognition and on-site recording solutions aimed at realizing safer and more effective firefighting activities. On the day of the event, with Kudan's cooperation, a demonstration experiment was conducted assuming a harsh on-site environment filled with dense smoke. Firefighters scanned a room with poor visibility using a handheld scanner, instantly creating a 3D model on the spot, demonstrating the ability to grasp the spatial environment of the site. By utilizing the acquired 3D spatial data on Kudan PRISM, a more intuitive and highly accurate form of "new on-site recording" was demonstrated, replacing conventional photo and handwritten records. Based on this demonstration, discussions with the Tokyo Fire Department will continue regarding the following applications expected in the firefighting field: Real-time spatial awareness at fire and disaster sites: Rapidly acquire and visualize spatial information of the site even in environments with limited visibility such as dense smoke or darkness, leading to improved safety for personnel and advanced decision-making. 3D digitization of post-incident investigations and verifications: Record and reproduce the conditions of fire sites as 3D data on Kudan PRISM, a photorealistic digital twin platform, and share it, thereby supporting the advancement and efficiency of post-incident investigations, verifications, and reporting tasks. Advancement of disaster prevention planning and training simulations: Utilize acquired 3D spatial data to understand facility structures and dangerous areas, consider training scenarios, and enable spatial information sharing among stakeholders, thereby leading to advanced disaster prevention planning and training from normal times. Kudan will continue to promote DX in the firefighting and disaster prevention fields through advanced 3D spatial reconstruction and recognition technology, contributing consistently to the improvement of societal safety, from preparedness in normal times to rapid situation awareness and response during disasters, and even post-incident verification.
