Kyoso-no-Mori is a Hitachi, Ltd. research and development site in Kokubunji City, just outside of Tokyo. Situated in a vast and thriving forest, this site is the place of research and initiative to implement "Common Ground," a concept aimed at people and robots possessing a common understanding.
"Common Ground" refers to technology that links physical and digital in real time. It achieves this by bundling huge amounts of urban data—places comprised of buildings and cities, the characteristics of things, various activities, and so on—to 3D information, and then enabling it to be handled in practical applications.
