What is Society 5.0? What becomes possible in Society 5.0?

＊2 SDGs : Sustainable Development GoalsInternational goals from 2016 to 2030, adopted at international summits.The SDGs consist of 17 goals and 169 targets for achieving a sustainable world.

＊1 QoL : Quality of Life

Society 5.0, a concept put forward by the Japanese government, is a vision of a new society, and encompasses the efforts to bring about that society.

Society 5.0 is positioned after the �rst four "societies": (1) hunter-gatherer society,(2) agrarian society, (3) industrial society, and (4) information society.

Society 5.0 goals are developing the economy and resolving social issues, by using revolutionary technologies (such as AI, IoT, and robots) and various types of societal data. These goals will help bring about a sustainable society where everyone can live safe and ful�lling lives.

Society 5.0 will help achieve the SDGs＊2 (Sustainable Development Goals) agreed on by the United Nations. Society 5.0 represents a vision of a new society, and will lead the efforts in resolving social issues around the world.

　 Healthcare, Medical, Nursing careMedical staff detect illnesses quickly and apply the optimum treatment by using collected information (both accumulated and real-time data), ensuring optimum health and quality of life over the long term.

　 MobilityThe spread of self-driving vehicles greatly reduces congestion and traf�c accidents. Such vehicles are dispatched to suit a person's lifestyle, and both persons and cargo are delivered to desired locations smoothly and safely.

　 ProductionProduction can be arranged to match daily lives and preferences: only the necessary amounts of necessary items are produced, items are delivered at the necessary times, and wasteful production is eliminated.

　 Infrastructure, Urban developmentAttached sensors enable real-time monitoring of infrastructure (buildings, roads, etc. ), which enables safe maintenance. In disasters, real-time data can detect or infer dangerous areas, and drones and robots lead people to safety.

　 FinanceBiometric identi�cation technology enables cash-less and card-less purchases anywhere in the world. Recording an individual's behavior and collating such data enables immediate credit and facilitates investments and �nance.
