German ZDF works with CScout for Asian Adventure program

Public broadcaster Zweites Deutsches Fernsehen (ZDF), the German equivalent of the BBC or NHK, visited Tokyo several months ago to explore and shoot footage for their special on Asia called Abenteuer Asien (Asian Adventure). While here, they enlisted the support of CScout Japan Director Sven Kilian who took them to the latest technological hotspots to see the innovation and creation going on in the heart of it all.

Part one of Asian Adventure covers other Asian countries, but touches on Japan, focusing on the HAL robotic suit in the latter part of the video. Part two has the most focus on Japan, taking on technology and trends from the futuristic world of Honda’s Asimo to the Gundam networked simulator game found in the Sega G-Link game center in Shibuya. All of these segments are in German, of course, but for those with the language skills or just curiosity, you can link to the video streams below.

Many thanks to the great crew from ZDF for making this possible.
