FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Human Detection and Site Camera Functions Utilizing Sensor- and Machine-Backed
Automatic Decision-Making Added to Remote Construction Management Tool

Renoveru, Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Founder & CEO: Tomohiro Yamashita;
hereinafter "Renoveru") is Japan's top*1 company that offers a one-stop service for finding resale
apartments, renovation, and creating renovation platforms using technology. Renoveru has added
human detection and site camera functions utilizing sensor- and machine-backed automatic
decision-making to the remote construction management tool it has been operating internally since
March 2021. This will enhance its comprehensive site management system, also encompassing
security and site safety. Through this new technology, Renoveru will further boost the value ofservices provided to customers and construction quality, at the same time as strengthening
corporate governance.
In the beta version of the remote construction management tool announced*2 in March 2021, it
was shown to be effective in reducing risk when managers use the human detection sensor
installed on site to take action to prevent crime as well as construction and labor issues.
In addition, permanently installing camera devices has also made it possible for designers and sitemanagers that often have to simultaneously manage multiple projects to grasp the progress andstatus of each site in real time. Under the existing specification, staff discovered new challenges
such as the burden of needing to communicate with the site to confirm facts even if they had dataobtained by sensor detection and difficulties investigating due to time lags in discovery.
The upgraded version currently being announced in 2021 seeks to solve these challenges byadding functions that detect humans through sensors and automatic decision-making logic andimmediately taking a photograph of the site. Once these functions have been implemented, it will
be possible to protect the safety of the sites entrusted to Renoveru by customers and the people
that work there even when no managers are at the construction site by detecting and recording thepresence of humans in real time and enabling managers to grasp the status of the site in a timely
manner.
In renovation constructions, which need the understanding and cooperation of management
associations and local residents, it is very important to strictly adhere to management mattersagreed in advance with concerned parties. By gaining a more accurate understanding of facts
thanks to this upgrade, Renoveru will work to further strengthen its work and quality control.
