NTT XR Real Support* is a remote work support solution using mixed reality (MR) technology to solve problems such as technical transfer, manpower shortage, and ensuring safety. It contains various functions of web conferencing tools, and MR functions provide support for on-site work that cannot be achieved by other tools. Japan's labor force continues to be impacted by a declining birthrate and aging population, and the use of mixed reality to facilitate remote operation is one way to address this challenge. NTT XR Real Support is mainly intended for use in the infrastructure industry such as electricity, gas, and communications, and in the manufacturing industry, which handles expensive equipment and precision machinery. Its use makes it possible to decrease the number of needed on-site workers, reduce downtime, and shorten training times.
