Remote Experience Sharing:
OPTiM’s Remote Technology Strategy for the IoT/Wearables Era!
Four new services are now available!
Tokyo (March 25, 2015) – OPTiM (TSE Mothers: 3694), a leading provider of business-related
applications for smart devices, proudly unveiled Remote Experience Sharing, its remote technology
strategy for the IoT/Wearables era, at OPTiM Remote World 2015, OPTiM's new service roll-out
event. Remote Experience Sharing is an environment that allows everyone to remotely shareexperience (knowledge, know-how, and information) with individuals/groups in real-time,contributing to a world in which users can and enjoy the benefits of technology’s evolution without
being an expert. And to ensure the realization of Remote Experience Sharing, OPTiM has rolled out
four new services!

■BackgroundIn the face of rapidly-evolving technology, the popularization of smartphones/tablets, and theimprovement of communication infrastructures’ speed/quality, smart device usage is increasing
in-home and at-work. Moreover, smart device usage is expected to further increase with the dawn of
the IoT/Wearables era. These developments are making our lives easier, while at the same timenecessitating that we learn a rapidly-growing number of new devices and technologies. Making thisenvironment even more complex is the fact that Japan's workforce is shrinking due to the graying of
the current workforce and the decrease of the national birthrate. This has led to a large-scalesocietal problem, a symptom of which is the lack of specialists across a variety of industries.

These issues have given rise to a demand for every worker to diversify his/her knowledge base, thus
placing increased stress on the worker. To remedy the situation, OPTiM created RemoteExperience Sharing, which emphasizes the effectiveness of remote technology.
■Realizing Remote Experience Sharing
To realize Remote Experience Sharing, OPTiM will concentrate on these four areas:① Launch Visual Remote Support Service：Provision of Optimal Second Sight
With Optimal Second Sight, a remote operator can assume the user’s point of view in real-time andprovide comprehensive support, as if he/she was actually on-site. Optimal Second Sight is ideal forcompanies suffering from labor shortages or support cost increases.

② Strengthen Collaboration Service：Optia version upgrade
Since its 2013 debut, Optia, the world's first service to enable smartphone voice/screen-sharing
among family and friends, has been utilized by countless users in many countries. Optia provides
various advantages, i.e. choosing a meet-up spot while viewing the same map during a phone
conversation, and selecting a restaurant for dinner while reviewing the same dining review site.

Press ReleaseAnd now, a major Optia version upgrade is coming soon, with plenty of exciting new features inaddition to the basic features already patented in both Japan and America. Pre-release willcommence spring 2015 in Japan, one of the world’s most advanced mobile environments.

◆Planned version upgrade:• Merging with voice call
• VoLTE supported• Carrier-free• VoIP incorporated• All AndroidTM devices supported※1 (AndroidTM 5.0 Lollipop and later)• Provision of free version with advertisements※ Please note that the content above is in development and subject to change without notice.

③ Strengthen Collaboration Service： Provision of Optimal Meeting (tentative)
Optimal Meeting (tentative), a screen-sharing service that’s easier to use than a current meetingroom monitor or projector, requires no registration or installation, and enables materials sharing andcollaboration easier than a web conference system. Meeting participants can start screen-sharing
and collaborating simply by entering a pre-issued number into their smartphone or PC.
When sharing materials on a TV monitor via a PC screen, precious time is often lost because ofvarious issues, i.e. connector type, compatibility, monitor control, etc. But with Optimal Meeting(tentative), you can enjoy seamless materials sharing and collaboration whenever and wherever youlike!

OPTiM is happy toannounce that we will soon make the Optimal One Platform open -- and, as the first step, we’llprovide Communication SDK, one of its core components. This means our alliance partners cannow utilize the high-quality features, including patents, which OPTiM has cultivated. Recruitment ofalliance partners will commence in the near future.
■Merging with IoT/Wearables
The world is entering an era in which everything will be connected to the Internet, meaning we canremotely grasp the status of a device or take control of anything immediately. This will haveprofound implications on our professional and personal lives.
In December 2014, OPTiM formed a business alliance with Telepathy Japan Inc., a provider ofsmart glass-type wearable devices. Together we are steadily proceeding with research anddevelopment in preparation for the IoT/Wearables era. OPTiM will consistently refine its service
offerings until everyone can remotely share their experiences in real-time, bringing
