● Background of the Donation

In recent years, accidents involving children being left behind at childcare facilities have been increasing. According to a survey conducted by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government on licensed and certified childcare centers, the number of reported cases was 14 in fiscal 2017, 18 in 2018, 34 in 2019, and 28 in 2020, totaling 94 cases over four years (Asahi Shimbun, February 13, 2022). It is pointed out that since there is no legal obligation to report such incidents, the actual number of cases may be even higher.

Compounded by the increasing workload of childcare workers and labor shortages, strengthening safety measures in childcare is an urgent issue shared by local governments and childcare facilities.

● About 'Camelia-kun' Child Abandonment Prevention Camera

【Four Values Transforming the Field】

(1) Eliminating 'blind spots' during outdoor activities with front and rear cameras

Equipped with two lenses that can simultaneously capture 180° front and rear views, it records blind spots during walks, park play, and pick-up/drop-off times. The rear footage can be used as objective evidence from a third-party perspective. Designed with three modes for use in all major childcare scenarios, it can be switched according to the environment, allowing for monitoring in situations that cannot be covered by standard fixed cameras.
