NTT Data Japan Co. has recently unveiled a unique capsule hotel that utilizes its cutting-edge technology to analyze guests’ sleep data. The primary objective of this innovative venture is to assist food and medical equipment manufacturers in developing products that can enhance the quality of sleep.
The 9h nine hours Shinagawa station sleep lab for men, located in Tokyo, officially opened its doors on August 9th. Each of the 70 compartments within the hotel is equipped with sensors, infrared cameras, and microphones to collect valuable data about guests’ sleeping patterns. This includes information such as how frequently they roll over during the night, their snoring habits, and instances of sleep apnea where breathing temporarily stops. Guests who provide consent will have their data collected and will be able to access the results.
NTT Data plans to collaborate with food and medical equipment manufacturers by utilizing this collected information. Their aim is to develop products that can effectively improve the overall quality of sleep for individuals. In fact, NTT Data has set an ambitious target of generating ¥30 billion in revenue from their healthcare business by 2030.
Considering its extensive portfolio which includes buildings equipped with communication facilities across various locations including urban areas, NTT Group is contemplating expanding further into the hotel industry.
This new capsule hotel venture not only showcases NTT Data’s commitment towards leveraging technology for societal benefits but also highlights their dedication towards improving people’s well-being through innovative solutions. With a focus on enhancing sleep quality through advanced analysis techniques, NTT Data aims to revolutionize the way we approach restful nights while simultaneously driving growth in their healthcare business sector.
