Japanese hi tech multi story graves
Japan is a densely populated, mountainous country with a fast aging population. There is a shortage of final resting places, especially in the big cities such as Tokyo where burial plots can cost more than US$100,000.
Japanese company Nichiryoku has created an interactive family plot that fuses technology with the traditional - multi-story high tech graveyards. Inside the building the cremated remains of your loved ones are stored in a personal sealed box which is kept in an underground vault. When you wish to access the box you scan an RFID card which then tells the system to bring up your box and place it in the prayer area.
