Nishida Funeral Home Co., Ltd. will launch the 'Memories Color Campaign' starting June 12, 2026 (Friday). This service digitizes old black-and-white or faded photographs found in drawers and closets, applies AI colorization, and delivers them to the customer's smartphone. The first photo per person is provided free of charge.
The campaign was inspired by the company's desire to support the continued well-being of the local community and contribute to the region it has served for many years.
What is the core of the campaign, 'Reminiscence Therapy'?
'Reminiscence Therapy' is a psychological approach that is said to stimulate the brain and lead to mental stability and maintenance of cognitive function by discussing past memories and nostalgic events. Proposed in the 1960s by American psychiatrist Robert Butler, it is now widely utilized in elderly care settings.
Vivid photos open the 'doors of memory'
As black-and-white photos are restored to color, the scenes, colors, and atmosphere of the past are instantly recalled.
'Talking' about memories activates the brain and heart
Sharing colorized photos with grandchildren and family and talking about the past serves as reminiscence therapy itself.
'Connection' creates mental stability
Time spent talking with family across generations alleviates feelings of loneliness in the elderly.
