In Japan, while the working-age population is drastically decreasing, fatal and serious accidents in the construction industry account for about 40% of all industrial accidents. In order to establish a safe and security workplace in the construction industry, more advanced safety support systems are needed.

The innovative safety support system will be realized by managing the construction production process as a Digital Twin (Cyber-Physical System). By connecting the digital data of people, machines, and workplace obtained through the latest ICT and IoT to the platform, an organic linkage between cyber construction and physical construction will become possible.

We will introduce a proof of concept called Shimz XXR Vision that provides a safe and security in the workplace.
