BuilderX Tele-Operation Proven in Japan’s Industrial Sites

By   ·  1 minute read


Cover of New Demolition & Construction Recycling magazine featuring demolition machinery used in Japan’s construction and recycling industry. New Demolition & Construction Recycling , a Japanese industry magazine focused on demolition, recycling, and redevelopment, has reported on the introduction of BuilderX Robotics tele-operation technology in Japan.

The article highlights how the system integrates cameras, sensors, control units, and electromagnetic valves into existing hydraulic excavators, enabling operators to control machines remotely in real time. According to the publication, the system supports multiple communication methods, including optical fiber, satellite, 4G, 5G, and mesh Wi-Fi, and automatically adapts to site conditions. It also notes compatibility with multiple machine brands and verified long-distance operational capability.
The magazine further reports that tele-operation improves working conditions by reducing physical strain and allowing operators to work safely away from hazardous sites. Additional functions mentioned include terrain preview, slope-detection-based rollover prevention, and visibility enhancements in dusty environments. The ability to retrofit existing machinery, operate multiple machines from one console, and enable continuous multi-operator shifts is also emphasized.

The publication presents this case as an example of performance-driven technology adoption in industrial settings, where operational reliability and practical effectiveness are prioritized.

Interview: Tele-operation in Japan

As highlighted in the article published in New Demolition & Construction Recycling, this technology is already being applied across active industrial environments in Japan. In the video below, Ms. Fujigamori, an operator working at a recycling facility in Japan, demonstrates how BuilderX tele-operation enables safe and precise machine control from a remote workstation.

Her experience reflects the outcomes described in the publication including improved working conditions, reduced physical strain, and operational flexibility for industrial roles.
