Over 20 % of the porter service deliveries are handled by the robots after the Mitsui Fudosan group identified efficient routes for them and informed residents of the service, according to an official.
In July, telecommunications company KDDI Corp., in cooperation with convenience store operator Lawson Inc., opened an experimental store using digital technology at its headquarters in the Takanawa Gateway City redevelopment area in Tokyo. Ten robots are used to deliver products to employees’ offices and conduct mobile sales.
The two companies aim to gather knowledge through the use of robots to improve store operation efficiency and develop highly convenient services.
