Heatstroke Countermeasure AI Camera "Kaokara" to Exhibit at "The 1st Heatstroke Tech - Technology Exhibition"
Pola Medical, a member of the Pola Orbis Group, will exhibit its heatstroke countermeasure AI camera "Kaokara" at "The 1st Heatstroke Tech - Technology Exhibition" in Osaka. This solution uses AI facial analysis to visualize early signs of changes in physical condition, aiming to reduce heatstroke risks and management burden in construction and manufacturing sites.

Pola Medical Inc. (Head Office: Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture; Representative Director and President: Takeshi Matsumoto) of the Pola Orbis Group will exhibit at "The 1st Heatstroke Tech - Technology Exhibition" to be held at Intex Osaka.
At this exhibition, we will introduce "Kaokara" as a solution to support the creation of a safe worksite environment.
On the day of the event, you can also experience a live demonstration using a dedicated terminal.
**Background of the Exhibition and Challenges Solved by "Kaokara"**
With record-breaking heat becoming the norm in recent years, heatstroke countermeasures have become an urgent issue directly linked to business management in worksites such as construction and manufacturing. Furthermore, traditional heatstroke countermeasures still faced challenges such as "difficulty in noticing subtle changes in each employee's physical condition" and "heavy burden on site managers."
This has led to a serious problem of "personalization of safety management," resulting in manager burden, risk of oversight, and inconsistency in judgment.
To solve these worksite challenges and contribute to creating a safer working environment, our company will exhibit at this "Heatstroke Tech - Technology Exhibition."
The exhibited heatstroke countermeasure AI camera "Kaokara" allows users to simply hold their face in front of it for about 3 seconds, and a specially trained AI instantly analyzes facial color, expression, and perspiration, visualizing early signs of changes in physical condition.
By building a management system that does not rely on "human eyes" through our proprietary facial analysis technology, we fundamentally solve worksite challenges.
By centrally managing the condition of the entire site with objective data on the cloud, we clarify criteria for calling out to others and taking breaks, dramatically reducing the burden on site supervisors.

**Exhibition Overview and Highlights at the Booth**
In response to feedback requesting "more ease of use!" in extreme heat worksites, we will also introduce the following latest updated functions, added in April 2026, at the venue:
**Improved Judgment Accuracy and Robustness**
The AI model has been redesigned based on approximately 2 million additional data points. Accuracy has been greatly improved to enable judgments even under harsh environments and shooting conditions, such as uneven lighting or when wearing masks/sunglasses.
**Face Sort Function (Beta Version)**
Diagnosis history can now be checked by simply clicking on a specific person's face. This streamlines understanding the background of alerted individuals and reporting to prime contractors.
**Alert Email Customization Function**
Notification levels can be customized according to site-specific operating standards, such as dangerous status (red) or caution status (orange).

Please visit our booth to experience the more worksite-friendly and powerful "Kaokara."
Going forward, we will continue to combine the facial analysis technology cultivated by the Pola Orbis Group with advanced AI technology, evolving into a global safety management solution that eliminates heatstroke risks from all worksites.
