Ki-Star Real Estate Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Honjo City, Saitama Prefecture; President: Keiji Hanawa; hereinafter 'the Company') has joined the young talent development program 'S.T.A.R. Project' as a cooperating company.
At the project's final report meeting, ideas were presented under the theme of 'Easily training craftsmen with AI video manuals,' conceived by project participants (hereinafter 'Creators') after visiting the Company's construction sites.
### Background of Participation: Supporting the 'Growth' of the Next Generation to Create a Sustainable Society
The Company views this project as both a place for 'growth support' for young talent challenging unknown fields and a part of regional co-creation aiming for a sustainable society.
We believe it is crucial to nurture young talent to lead the next generation toward solving the challenges faced by the construction industry. To go beyond existing frameworks, we welcomed students as creators and supported their process of touching the essence of social issues by providing actual construction sites and opportunities for dialogue with field employees.
### Presentation Content: 'Glasses that Support Work' Capturing the Reality of the Field
Participating creators explored field challenges from a unique student perspective, free from fixed ideas about the construction industry. By visiting our construction sites and engaging in repeated dialogues with craftsmen, they derived a unique concept: a system that naturally supports work even when both hands are occupied, rather than simply 'teaching.'
At the final report meeting, they proposed a future vision for construction sites where even inexperienced workers can work safely without hesitation by formalizing expert movements with AI and displaying procedures through AR glasses.
### Company Comments and Future Outlook
The fusion of the construction industry, often called blue-collar work, with the latest technology was a high-difficulty theme. However, the students' sincere efforts to stay close to the field and identify issues were a great inspiration for our employees. We are confident that the 'Glasses that Support Work' will update traditional teaching methods and become a major catalyst for the digital native generation to feel closer to the construction industry.
The Company will continue to strengthen cooperation with local communities and industries, supporting the growth of the next generation while looking toward the future of the construction industry.
