FORUM8’s company profile
FORUM8, headquartered in Tokyo Japan, established FORUM8 Technology Development (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. in November 2009.
Since its establishment, the company has provided software and technical services in support of civil engineering and architectural design based on software package development technology, with the design of structures as its core business. In recent years, with the development of virtual reality, the scope of application has been extended to a wider range of project areas, including transportation and automotive research and development.
The foundation of our growth lies in the development of original all-purpose software. UC-win/Road, a real-time virtual reality software, was developed in 2000, and since its initial release, we have continued to develop and improve numerous functions of the software including 3D environment modeling, driving simulation, and presentation functions.
The development of these new products and technologies has been highly evaluated by the customers worldwide, and FORUM8 has been awarded by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan to take on the contracted project using FORUM8’s original 3D VR and Cloud computing technology. The software-related technical services and the integration business centered on the software itself have been growing, led by the driving simulator system and other businesses, and FORUM8 has successfully won the international tender to build and deliver a large-scale simulator for the Academy of Highway Sciences of the Ministry of Transportation and Communications of China. FORUM8 has also built and delivered high-end research driving simulators for Toyota, Kyushu University and Kyoto University.
