What we did

Development of smartphone application and route search engine

We developed the DRIVEBOSS application for Android/iOS smartphones that are implemented with many functions for drivers such as a function to navigate routes to visiting locations in conjunction with the Google Map application and also one that supports safe driving by giving drivers warnings about speeding, sudden acceleration and deceleration. In addition, to make visiting the rounds of locations in the optimal manner, we developed a route search engine utilizing AI.

Result

Alleviating operational loads and providing quality services to nursing care sites

For day care nursing sites of short of manpower, pickup operations tended to be a great burden. With the DRIVEBOSS Service, we can automatically make efficient pickup plans and conduct pickup operations added with various “human” factors such as efficiency of routes, closeness of users and the necessity for wheelchairs, realizing drastic efficiency improvements and workstyle reforms. In addition, we can also offer quality services to users of nursing facilities.
