共創チャレンジについては岡山大学研究協力会が実施する「産学共創促進チャレンジ事業」の枠組みが案内されています。
これまでの取り組み(研究デザインと社会実装)
学術監修と共同開発
岡山大学 医歯薬学域・感染症内科 萩谷英大医師の監修のもと、手指衛生の重要性と「見えない汚染」の拡がりを、実写×3DCGで可視化するVR教材として開発しました。
教育現場での活用
岡山大学医学部保健学科をはじめ、授業・演習内での体験学習ツールとして活用が進み、「なぜ手指衛生が必要か」を“自分ごと化”する教材として評価をいただいています。▷ 演習等での使用事例は、こちらからご覧ください。
災害医療・避難所運営への応用
医療・介護の現場で培った設計を基に、災害時の避難所を想定した衛生行動の演習へと用途を拡張しています。
言語の壁を越えた視覚教育、レイアウト再現による避難所特有のリスク学習など、現場適用を意識した提案を継続しています。
社会実装の拡張(提供形態)
レンタル提供に加え、研究要件に合わせたCG/VRソフトの個別開発、効果測定フレームの提供(体験前後アンケート・行動観察)まで、一気通貫で支援しています。
使用先・導入シーン
大学教育:看護・医療系の授業・演習での体験学習。
医療機関の研修:院内の衛生行動・手順の理解促進、新人研修・継続教育の一部としての活用(当社提供メニューに準拠)。
防災・公衆衛生:避難所運営の衛生管理演習、地域啓発イベント等での体験学習。
※病院名・学内授業の詳細は、各ご担当の方針に基づき公表可否を調整のうえご紹介いたします。
受賞・採択のご報告
岡山大学・産学共創の枠組みで推進岡山大学研究協力会「産学共創促進チャレンジ事業」の枠組みのもと、教育現場・研究現場に根差した開発・実装を進めております。
おかやましんきんSDGsアワード(2024)評価当社の「災害・医療×VR」の社会実装が同アワードで評価されました。
昨年は、災害体験VRの展開について、ビジネス部門にて入賞として公式に掲載されています。

Selected for Okayama University Co-creation Challenge Project × Okayama Shinkin Bank SDGs Award Grand Prize Winner: Infection Control VR
We are pleased to announce that our "Infection Control VR" has been selected as a co-creation challenge project promoted under Okayama University's industry-academia collaborative framework, providing us with an opportunity to further accelerate its implementation in research and educational settings.
Additionally, our initiatives have been recognized with the "Okayama Shinkin Bank SDGs Award," which honors regional SDGs efforts.
We express our sincere gratitude for your support.
The co-creation challenge is introduced through the framework of the "Industry-Academia Co-creation Promotion Challenge Project" implemented by the Okayama University Research Cooperation Association.
Previous Initiatives (Research Design and Social Implementation)
Academic Supervision and Joint Development
Under the supervision of Dr. Hidehiro Hagiya, Department of Infectious Diseases, Faculty of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Okayama University, we developed VR educational materials that visualize the importance of hand hygiene and the spread of "invisible contamination" through a combination of live-action footage and 3DCG.
Utilization in Educational Settings
The VR has been increasingly used as an experiential learning tool in classes and practical training, including at the School of Health Sciences, Okayama University School of Medicine, and has been evaluated as educational material that helps learners internalize "why hand hygiene is necessary."
Application to Disaster Medicine and Evacuation Center Management
Based on designs cultivated in medical and nursing care settings, we have expanded the application to hygiene behavior training in disaster evacuation centers.
We continue to make proposals conscious of field application, including visual education that transcends language barriers and risk learning specific to evacuation centers through layout reproduction.
Expansion of Social Implementation (Provision Format)
In addition to rental provision, we provide comprehensive support including custom development of CG/VR software tailored to research requirements and provision of effectiveness measurement frameworks (pre- and post-experience questionnaires and behavioral observations).
Usage Sites and Implementation Scenarios (Excerpt)
University Education: Experiential learning in nursing and medical classes and practical training (School of Nursing, Okayama University School of Medicine, among others).
Healthcare Institution Training: Promotion of understanding of in-hospital hygiene behaviors and procedures, use as part of new employee training and continuing education (in accordance with our provided menu). Press Release and News Release Distribution Share No. 1 | PR TIMES
Disaster Prevention and Public Health: Hygiene management training for evacuation center operations, experiential learning at community awareness events, etc.
*Hospital names and details of in-class instruction will be introduced after coordinating disclosure approval based on the policies of each responsible party.
Awards and Selection Announcements
Promotion Under Okayama University Industry-Academia Co-creation Framework
Under the framework of the Okayama University Research Cooperation Association's "Industry-Academia Co-creation Promotion Challenge Project," we are advancing development and implementation rooted in educational and research settings.
Okayama Shinkin Bank SDGs Award (2024) Recognition
Our "Disaster/Medical × VR" social implementation was recognized by this award.
Last year, the development of disaster experience VR was officially listed as a winner in the business category.

Gratitude for Recognition
We express our sincere gratitude to the researchers and faculty members who have devoted themselves to joint research and class management, the medical professionals involved in implementation and operation, and the many people who have participated in experiential learning in the community.
Our creations are refined based on feedback from the field.
We will continue to pursue "behavioral change VR" that balances academic validity with operational effectiveness in the field.
Future Development
Enhancement of Healthcare Professional Perspective Version
We will strengthen the perspective design that follows decision-making and procedures to bridge the gap to field behavior.
Effectiveness Measurement and Learning Data Utilization
We will establish the design of pre- and post-experience questionnaires and behavioral observation logs, and strive to quantitatively verify educational effectiveness.
Systematization of Disaster Medicine/Evacuation Center Version
We will develop a disaster hygiene behavior training package that includes environmental sanitation, traffic line design, and multilingual guidance.
Continuation of Academic Collaboration and Dissemination
We will collaborate with domestic and international research networks to improve, verify, and disseminate educational materials.
Expansion of Provision Schemes
We will clearly define three lines—term rental, research and development contracting, and joint research—to enable phased implementation according to field budgets and schedules.
