Happy new year!
At iREX 2022 (International Robot Exhibition 2022) held in March last year, we introduced a 4-legged robot, Bex. In April, we opened the Future Lab HANEDA and started a Proof of Concept for the autonomous mobile type service robot, Nyokkey in the restaurant.
With the catch phrase of “from an industrial robot manufacturer to the fully-integrated robot manufacturer to offer solutions to social problems,” we started to challenge social robots last year. This year, we would like to implement our idea in actual society.
Another challenge is a robot digital platform, ROBO CROSS that provides customers with continued services. It was also exhibited at iREX2022 and attracted a lot of positive reactions from customers. We are hoping to start a Proof of Concept this year, too.
Needless to say, we will also continue to develop new industrial robots, aiming mainly at the “Logistics” industry and “Inspection” fields. As Kawasaki Robotics offers new technologies and products, we ask for your continued support.
