Zoom/Microsoft Teams Ready: Easy-to-Use Wearable Camera for Remote Site Inspection Launched

MIYOSHI Co., Ltd. (Miyoshi-machi, Saitama Prefecture; Representative Director: Eikichi Sato), which develops, manufactures, and rents the easy-to-use surveillance cameras 'G-cam' and 'G-POKE', will begin offering the 'G-POKE' wearable camera equipped with Zoom and Microsoft Teams on April 1, 2026. 'G-POKE' is a wearable camera that fits in a chest pocket, allowing live footage captured on-site to be checked remotely from locations such as headquarters.

Background: Growing Needs for Remote Inspection and On-site Challenges in the Construction Industry
The construction industry faces chronic labor shortages, necessitating reductions in travel time and costs, as well as improvements in work efficiency. Consequently, the adoption of 'remote inspection,' which allows for real-time verification and attendance without visiting the site, is progressing. However, the following challenges existed on-site:
- Inability to install proprietary apps due to security restrictions.
- Smartphones and tablets are heavy and difficult to use for long periods.
- Battery depletion, overheating, and work interruptions due to incoming calls/notifications.
- Lack of transparency in costs and contracts, such as SIM expenses for subcontractors.

Features of 'G-POKE' to Solve These Challenges
1. Direct Use of Zoom/Microsoft Teams: Since existing tools can be used, no new system implementation or security applications are required.
2. Hands-Free Remote Inspection: Can be worn using accessories, allowing for safe filming while working, balancing efficiency and safety.
3. Stable Operation Unique to Dedicated Devices: No interruptions from battery drain, overheating, or notifications, ensuring stable video streaming.

By supporting Zoom and Microsoft Teams, 'G-POKE' makes remote attendance, inspections, and meetings smoother. It allows for easy online participation from the site with high-quality video and audio. MIYOSHI will continue to listen to on-site voices and develop products that contribute to solving customer challenges.
