New Tech Helps Construction Industry

With the 2020 Olympics and Paralympics set to commence in Tokyo later this year, Japan's construction industry is being pushed to its limits. A national labor shortage is adding to the challenge, so construction companies are now turning to technology to maximize efficiency. From smart excavators that can be operated by almost anyone, to MR (mixed reality) goggles that can display construction plans on demand, this episode introduces some of the cutting-edge technology that is being used to help make up for a lack of man-power at major construction sites in Japan.
