■Experience the feel of cosmetics remotely and without contact
Shiseido and NTT begin joint research to develop technology that allows users to experience the feel of cosmetics remotely and without contact
~Leveraging the strengths of both companies to meet the diverse needs of each individual and create new opportunities for experiences~
Shiseido and NTT have begun joint research to develop innovative technology that combines Shiseido's knowledge of sensory science research with NTT's non-contact information presentation technology to allow users to experience the feel of cosmetics through sight and hearing, even remotely and without contact.
Until now, in online sales, there have been limited ways to convey the feel of cosmetics without touching the actual product or tester, and information was provided mainly through videos and verbal expressions. Through this joint research, we will further enhance the value of the experience, and in the future, we will create new experience opportunities that will allow users to experience the feel of cosmetics remotely and without contact, transcending the constraints of time, place, language, etc., and meet the diverse needs of each individual around the world at any time.
■ Background
With the rapid spread of online sales, i.e., the buying and selling of goods and services over the Internet, many consumers have begun to purchase cosmetics through EC (electronic commerce). While the diversification of digital purchasing and experience activities is now commonplace, in purchasing environments such as online sales, there are issues with not being able to directly touch and try cosmetics as in stores, such as checking the delicate and diverse texture of cosmetics.
Shiseido aims to realize a sustainable society where people can feel happy by providing opportunities to enjoy the power of beauty anytime and anywhere, by catering to the beauty needs of each individual. To achieve this, Shiseido is also working on many projects to combine its strengths in sensory science research, which unravels subjective things such as human senses and psychology through objective and scientific approaches, with DX (digital transformation).
Meanwhile, NTT is conducting research and development aimed at a society in which the contents of human senses and perceptions can be transmitted and shared in a real and rich way, and making this possible. In recent years, it has proposed a technology that conveys the softness of materials to customers without contact.
The joint research project was initiated because the visions of both companies and the knowledge necessary for new technology development matched.
■The roles of both companies and the core technologies to be utilized
In sensory science research, Shiseido will provide knowledge of the perception mechanisms related to the feel of skin and cosmetics, as well as knowledge of formulations that create a comfortable feel, while NTT will provide knowledge of non-contact information presentation technology that conveys texture and the illusion of texture.
