Advancing Safe and Efficient War Reconstruction with Remote Operation Technology
25 March 25, Tokyo, Japan - Soliton Systems, a Japanese technology company specializing in the development of innovative solutions in teleoperations, cybersecurity, and IT infrastructure, (has joined the Japan-Ukraine Platform on Infrastructure Technology for Recovery and Reconstruction (JUPITeR), a public-private initiative supporting the rebuilding of Ukraine’s land and transportation infrastructure. Through this initiative, Soliton is actively contributing to Ukraine’s recovery efforts.
Established in January 2025 under the leadership of Japan’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport, and Tourism (MLIT), JUPITeR aims to facilitate Japanese companies' involvement in Ukraine’s reconstruction projects.
At its inaugural meeting, high-ranking government officials from both Japan and Ukraine convened and were joined by representatives from around 100 organizations, totaling over 200 participants primarily from the infrastructure sector. The gathering focused on sharing their commitment and expectations for contributing to Ukraine's recovery through Japanese technology.Soliton’s Contribution: Remote Operation for Safer Reconstruction
Soliton is supporting Ukraine’s infrastructure recovery with cutting-edge technology. The company’s Zao Series, a low-latency video transmission device used for teleoperations for the remote control of vehicles, robots, and drones over multiple public private wireless networks, ensures stable, real-time communication, even in the most challenging of environments.. This technology enables the remote operation of construction machinery from long distances, allowing work to proceed safely even in war-affected areas.
As part of MLIT’s "i-Construction 2.0" initiative, Soliton has conducted proof-of-concept experiments to automate and remotely operate construction machinery. By enhancing network stability and optimizing low-latency video transmission, the company has contributed to the growing adoption of remote operation technology at construction sites across Japan.
For Ukraine’s reconstruction, ensuring both safety and efficiency is paramount. Many affected regions remain hazardous due to unexploded ordnance and other dangers, making on-site work extremely risky. Remote operation technology allows construction activities to continue without needing workers to be physically present, significantly enhancing safety. Additionally, this technology creates new opportunities for individuals with mobility challenges or injuries to actively participate in reconstruction efforts.
As a member of JUPITeR, Soliton Systems Europe N.V., the company’s European subsidiary, will collaborate with domestic and international partners to develop a system enabling remote operation of construction equipment, with the Zao Series at its core.
Furthermore, in April 2025, Soliton will showcase its remote operation technology at "bauma 2025", the world’s largest construction machinery trade fair, held in Munich, Germany, in collaboration with local partners.
Through this initiative, Soliton aims to improve the efficiency and safety of reconstruction work by leveraging Japan’s advanced construction technology and ICT solutions. Looking ahead, the company aspires to contribute to global infrastructure recovery efforts and drive innovation across the construction industry worldwide.
