2,000 People Enthralled! Magic Shields and Clay Inc. Showcase Safety Technology and Entertainment at SusHi Tech Tokyo 2026

Magic Shields, an innovative startup known for its safety flooring, participated in 'SusHi Tech Tokyo 2026,' held at Tokyo Big Sight from April 27 to 29, 2026. The company showcased a unique demonstration area featuring its fall-risk reduction flooring, 'Coroyawa®,' integrated with 'HOTARUYUKA,' a pressure-sensor-equipped sheet developed by Clay Inc. Over the three-day event, approximately 2,000 attendees experienced the cutting-edge interactive stage.

'Coroyawa®' utilizes a mechanical metamaterial structure to absorb impact during falls, ensuring safety. By combining this with 'HOTARUYUKA,' the stage synchronized lighting and effects with performers' movements, creating a dynamic show. On April 28, the business day, the CEOs of both companies delivered a keynote presentation, highlighting their success in over 1,600 medical and care facilities and emphasizing the broader social and economic impact of their technology.

Since its founding in 2019, Magic Shields has aimed to reduce fall-related fractures, a significant global issue for the elderly. Their product contributes to lowering medical and care expenses while improving working environments. Clay Inc., led by Yuto Shioda, leverages medical sensor technology for the 'HOTARUYUKA' sheet, which is designed for easy transport and outdoor use, aiming to revitalize the night-time economy. Magic Shields remains committed to achieving a society where everyone can move freely without the fear of injury.
