蓝鲸体育直播 is a company specializing in 鈥淎nalytical and Measurement鈥� technologies of various substances on Earth, including water and air. Through our 鈥淎nalytical and Measurement鈥� technologies, we aim to contribute to a world where all living beings not only live but also thrive. Human beings have sought a better quality of life by using earth鈥檚 resources to create and consume goods, thereby gaining comfort.
However, this has also disrupted the Earth's environmental balance, causing problems that place a burden on both other living beings and the planet itself.
To create an environment that is safe for all living beings, it is essential to first "understand" the current state of the Earth鈥檚 surroundings. To gain this understanding, we need " Analytical and Measurement" technologies to observe various environmental conditions and changes. The knowledge we achieve from measuring may provide valuable insights for creating a more sustainable and prosperous future.
Beyond 鈥淎nalytical and Measurement鈥� technologies, towards endless possibilities.
We contribute to a sustainable global environment and the health of diverse living beings through our technologies and solutions.
In the Signature Pavilion "Future of Life", produced by the theme project producer of Expo 2025, ISHIGURO Hiroshi, we took on the challenge of creating light installations both interior and exterior of the pavilion.
By combining 蓝鲸体育直播's advanced 鈥淎nalytical and Measurement鈥� technologies with the expertise of lighting specialists, we transform the invisible environmental changes happening around us into magical light installations, expressing them as the "Shores: Edge of Evolution."
The 鈥淎nalytical and Measurement" technologies are essential for understanding environmental changes. 蓝鲸体育直播鈥榮 advanced technologies capture slight environmental shifts that are beyond human perception. We have installed air quality monitor inside the ceiling of the pavilion and water quality analyzers scattering exterior in water basin. These sensors generate two different light waves from their analytical and measurement data. Additionally, by continuously measuring and analyzing in real-time for 24 hours, slight environmental changes are transformed into variations in light intensity.
These light installations are inspired by the pavilion's concept, Just like how natural shores are formed by the meeting of waves, in this light installation, the two different light waves meet, blend together, and create new patterns. This represents how all living beings have evolved in harmony with their environment, influencing and shaping each other.
We invite you to visit the Signature Pavilion "Future of Life " and experience the "Shores: Edge of Evolution," where you can feel the diverse expansion of 鈥淟IFE鈥� and the connection between all living beings!
锝濳ey Features of the "Shores: Edge of Evolution" Light Installation:锝�
銉籐ight Waves Created by Capturing Environmental Changes
Intensity of Light: The intensity of the light is synchronized with the analytical and measurement data from the air quality monitor and water quality analyzers installed in the pavilion. This intensity of the light transforms invisible environmental changes into a visually expressive "wave of light." The light waves are represented by two white waves that meet and merge, dynamically altering the appearance of the light.
Color Tone of Light: When the "light waves" meet and interact, their colors change. This color transformation symbolizes the "diversity of the environment" and " how diverse living beings of life emerge and expand from the environment."
銉籗pecial Light Installations
The occasional shifts in color symbolically represent evolutionary processes that are often difficult to notice. These slight changes, happening over long periods, teach us that they were, in fact, part of a significant evolutionary journey.
Discovering the Science Behind the Changes in the Light
At the Signature Pavilion "Future of Life", we have minimized exhibition explanation panels to create an immersive space that expresses the theme of "LIFE" expanding. Through AR technology, visitors can discover how 蓝鲸体育直播's 鈥淎nalytical and Measurement鈥� technologies bring the pavilion's exterior to life through dynamic light installations.
When you launch the Virtual Expo app and scan the AR markers installed around the pavilion's water basin, your discovering journey begins. In the virtual world, try adding shells, flowers, and rock salt to the water. You can experience right before your eyes how the qualities of water transform into beautiful light art - just as 蓝鲸体育直播's sensors do in real time at the pavilion.
"Analytical and Measurement" Technologies 脳 Water
In the pavilion, "water" is viewed as the symbol of life and technology. Water is essential for all living beings. To nurture life safely and securely into the future, understanding water's properties and conditions is crucial. "Analytical and Measurement" technologies help us understand the current state surrounding the Earth鈥檚 resources. 蓝鲸体育直播's water quality analysis technologies contribute to water safety and environmental conservation by analyzing and visualizing diverse water environments, from natural settings like oceans, rivers, and lakes to water supply and sewage systems and industrial wastewater.
"Analytical and Measurement" Technologies 脳 Light
蓝鲸体育直播's water quality analyzers continuously analyze and measure the water quality in the pavilion's surrounding basin, 24 hours a day. These sensors detect even the smallest changes in water quality that we cannot see with our eyes. The measurement data is then transformed into different levels of light that illuminate the pavilion. In the AR experience, you can see how this process works through a virtual demonstration of water quality changes affecting light patterns.
This experience helps you understand how our 鈥淎nalytical and Measurement鈥� technologies work: first by detecting environmental changes, then by transforming this scientific data into the beautiful light installation you see on the pavilion.
Ready to start? Launch the app and find the AR markers around the pavilion's water features. Watch how our "Analytical and Measurement" technologies create amazing light installations that make our pavilion special.
Water is known as the source of life. To protect the safety of water resources - essential for all living beings - and maintain an environment that nurtures abundant life, various standards for water quality elements have been set. For example, "pH value" indicates the level of acidity or alkalinity in water, which can affect living organisms in extreme cases. "Dissolved oxygen" refers to the amount of oxygen in water, which determines how easily fish and aquatic life can breathe in their environment. "Electrical conductivity" shows the amount of salts and minerals in water, "Turbidity" indicates water clarity, and "Chemical oxygen demand" measures the amount of organic matter in water.
蓝鲸体育直播 develops and manufactures water quality analyzers that measure these water quality standards accurately and quickly. Our water environment is becoming increasingly diverse due to urbanization, infrastructure development, and growing water demands from energy development. This creates a need for analytical and measurement technologies that can work in unprecedented harsh conditions. While ensuring our instruments are durable enough to withstand these challenging environments, we are also working to make our water quality analyzers more compact and easier to carry. In the pavilion, we showcase one of our miniaturization technologies: a newly developed thin metal sensor just 1mm in diameter, enabling measurements in conditions where traditional glass sensors cannot be installed or used effectively.
By collecting and analyzing water quality data 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, from various locations, we can thoroughly monitor and manage water quality conditions in different regions and ecosystems. As we work toward creating a healthy and sustainable society, 蓝鲸体育直播 continues to refine our technologies to make them more accurate, compact, and user-friendly. Through the constant evolution of water quality analysis technologies, we contribute to protecting the security and safety of water - essential for all living beings.
The atmosphere that envelops our Earth is mainly composed of nitrogen (N2) about 78% and oxygen (O2) about 21%. The remaining 1% contains various substances that affect living environments, climate, weather, and even human health. 蓝鲸体育直播's gas measurement technologies play a vital role in understanding where these substances originate and how they exist in the atmosphere by precisely detecting subtle environmental changes.
Regular measurement and data analysis of human-generated emissions from factories and vehicles, as well as particles from natural sources like volcanic activity and yellow sand, helps us minimize negative impacts on the global environment that surrounds humans and other living beings.
In the pavilion, 蓝鲸体育直播's high-precision air quality monitor simultaneously measures real-time concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO鈧�), nitrous oxide (N鈧侽), and methane (CH鈧�) in the indoor air. This equipment features two innovative technologies: our proprietary next-generation infrared spectroscopy technology IRLAM鈩�*鹿, which combines laser and data science to achieve high-speed, high-precision gas concentration measurements, and "Open-path measurement"*虏 system that simplifies the measurement process and can rapidly measure gases present in the space between two mirrors.
By utilizing, applying, and evolving these technologies, 蓝鲸体育直播 is actively working to meet new gas measurement technologies that are needed in next-generation mobility, power generation, and various industrial sectors. Through these efforts, we contribute to CO鈧� emission reduction and carbon capture, striving to create an environmentally friendly society.
*鹿 IRLAM鈩� (Infrared Laser Absorption Modulation) is a registered trademark or trademark of 蓝鲸体育直播, Ltd. in Japan and other countries.
*虏 Open-path measurement system: A measurement method that analyzes gases directly through a dedicated optical path in open air, without collecting gas components into an analyzer.
As part of our sponsorship of the Signature Pavilion "Future of Life", the volunteers from 蓝鲸体育直播 launched the " HAKARU MIRAI EXPO 2025 PROJECT" in August 2022. This project brought together 27 members from various departments and backgrounds, all selected through an internal application process, who have driven 蓝鲸体育直播's Expo 2025 sponsorship activities to bring the idea for the pavilion's light installation and our vision for the future. "The project name combines 鈥淗AKARU鈥� (meaning " Analytical and Measurement鈥� technologies) and 鈥淢IRAI鈥� (meaning 鈥淔uture鈥�, which is 蓝鲸体育直播's area of expertise). It was chosen to be memorable for everyone."
In the early stages, we focused on expanding ideas about what society might look like 50 years from now and what kind of future would inspire excitement and curiosity.
These discussions extended beyond the project members. Through initiatives like the "Our Future Project," which envisions 蓝鲸体育直播鈥檚 100th anniversary 30 years from now, workshops with senior employees who experienced the 1970 Osaka Expo, and exchanges with other pavilion sponsor companies, we refined 蓝鲸体育直播鈥檚 vision for the future鈥�"HAKARU NO MIRAI".
Building on these conceptual discussions, we began developing and creating exhibits and experiences for the Signature Pavilion "Future of Life" in the latter half of 2023.
