"Sound Biotope" is an experimental initiative—led by a team centered on Konel and Yamaha—designed to boost creativity through "sounds" generated by natural phenomena.

With the opening of the Chūō Shinkansen (Maglev) in sight, urban redevelopment is progressing in Hashimoto, Sagamihara, Kanagawa Prefecture. The city promotes a vision called “Hashimoto—where the Linear connects people to a step-ahead future,” planning integrated development of the station and surrounding area. Against this backdrop, a collaborative project called Botac has launched, led by Keio Corporation, Green Display Co., Ltd., and Konel Inc.. By using plant-based power generation, the initiative reimagines the station as an environment that evolves through citizen participation. It serves as a symbolic project that aims to transform Hashimoto into a “laboratory for the future.”
