For an era where workplaces and living spaces are connected,
eading to new ways of being busy.
Panasonic’s designs to support new working styles
More and more time is spent working from home.
At the same time, there are issues with lack of personnel at the workplace, due to fewer people going into the office and reduced working hours.
New ways of being busy are being created by these new working styles.
Panasonic technology helps with things you’re too busy to handle, forget, or tend to mess up.
By connecting everything through IoT, or taking them outside the home, your new lifestyle can be made comfortable.
Examples of UD products that help busy people in the era of new working styles.
Voice Push Notification | Works in conjunction with home electronics to provide voice notifications
By linking with home electronics that support IoT, other speaker-equipped home electronics such as televisions can be used to provide information such as when washing machines or cooking have finished, or when the room temperature rises, for example. They can also provide voice notifications of things that are easy to forget, like garbage disposal dates or when to take medication, if programmed in advance. This provides support for each person to live a comfortable life in their own way.

Delivery box for houses｜Greatly Reduce Redelivery Rates and Stress with Multi-Package Acceptance
In a demonstration experiment conducted to address the social issue of “redelivery,” the redelivery rate dropped to one-sixth in just four months, significantly reducing stress for consumers and working hours for delivery personnel.
In recent years, it has become common for each family member to shop online individually, resulting in multiple packages arriving on the same day.
Traditional delivery boxes could only accept one package, leading to complaints when a second package required redelivery. However, Combo Multi adopts a structure that can receive up to five packages, supporting new work styles.
