Sygn House Inc. (Headquarters: Kawasaki City, Kanagawa; President: Takashi Arai), Tokio Marine Smart Mobility Inc. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Hidemi Harada), and TripodWorks Inc. (Headquarters: Sendai City, Miyagi; President: Kenichi Sasaki) have launched a joint development of a motorcycle accident detection system based on Sygn House's 'B+COM' intercom series, aiming to reduce the risk of motorcycle accidents and realize prompt rescue activities.
This joint project aims to launch the service within the fiscal year 2026. We will proceed with building a highly effective safety infrastructure that integrates Sygn House's device platform, Tokio Marine Smart Mobility's risk management expertise, and the advanced detection capabilities of TripodWorks' proprietary 'Data-Driven Mathematical Algorithm for AI' (patent pending). A prototype of the motorcycle accident detection system's principle will be privately shown at the Sygn House exhibition booth during the '53rd Tokyo Motorcycle Show 2026,' starting March 27, 2026.
Background and Purpose
As mobility diversifies, motorcycles are supported by users of all generations not only for their convenience as an efficient means of transportation but also as a mobility option that enriches lifestyles by offering the joy and freedom of riding. However, alongside this sense of openness and excitement, motorcycles carry a higher risk of physical injury in accidents compared to four-wheel vehicles. They face a unique challenge where delays in rescue efforts can lead to serious situations, especially in single-vehicle falls or accidents in locations that are difficult to find, such as mountainous areas.
This joint project aims to realize swift rescue support by using 'B+COM,' a device that constantly accompanies the rider's rich motorcycle life, as a safety hub and analyzing the data obtained from it with advanced algorithms. Through this, we will accelerate the realization of a society where everyone who loves motorcycles can enjoy the pleasure and fun of riding more safely and with greater peace of mind, and contribute to solving the societal issue of zero traffic fatalities. This will be achieved through a multifaceted approach that merges cutting-edge technology, real-world human operations, and financial systems.
Specific Initiatives (Towards a FY2026 Launch)
Tokio Marine Smart Mobility and TripodWorks will combine their respective specializations to promote joint development with Sygn House, focusing on the following areas:
1. Design of Risk Management and Data-Based Accident Detection/Emergency Call Services
Utilizing the Tokio Marine Group's accident data and know-how regarding emergency calls, we will jointly develop safety designs based on riding data and an emergency call service for unforeseen circumstances. In addition to post-incident rescue response, we aim to provide comprehensive peace of mind that covers preventive safety to prevent accidents themselves, as well as early rescue and recovery after an accident.
2. Development of a Detection Engine Using the Patented 'Data-Driven Mathematical Algorithm for AI'
We will develop a detection engine based on TripodWorks' proprietary 'Data-Driven Mathematical Algorithm for AI' technology. This system will be built to identify severe impacts with high precision from the complex behaviors specific to motorcycles, while keeping data processing extremely lightweight. We will proceed with implementing a real-time monitoring function that reliably captures accidents while minimizing the device's battery load.
Comment from Takashi Arai, President of Sygn House Inc.
'B+COM has always been there for riders by providing 'fun,' but now we are taking on the challenge of creating the new value of 'safety.' By jointly developing a detection system backed by patented technology, we are determined to evolve B+COM into a device that protects riders' lives and makes the future of motorcycle culture safer.'
