                Demonstration experiment of walking guidance by a cane-type robot with wheels at Osaka City University

                Demonstration experiment of walking guidance by a cane-type robot with wheels at Osaka City University

                When the user walks holding the staff part, the robot automatically steers the wheels and guides the user to the destination. A feature of the robot is that it does not have an autonomous movement function, so that users can feel as if they are walking by themselves. This time, a function has been added that allows users to set their destinations by holding up their cards. However, as it was found to be difficult to use during the verification experiment, Mr. Imazu intends to improve this function, saying, "We would like to consider other methods, including voice recognition technology. A crowdfunding campaign is currently underway until the evening of the 26th in order to put the system into practical use as soon as possible. The target amount is set at 2 million yen. The funds raised will be used to develop charging facilities and waterproof exteriors.

                    The Practical Application Development Center for Organic Photonics and Electronics (Nishi-ku, Fukuoka City) of the Fukuoka Industry, Science and Technology Foundation (Fukuoka IST, Hayara-ku, Fukuoka City) has developed a heating method for vapor deposition using induction heating (IH) as the heat source. In the future, the center aims to commercialize this method in cooperation with equipment manufacturers. The new method was developed for vapor deposition in the production of organic thin films, for which the center has abundant production know-how (photo). The characteristics and functions of the device have been confirmed by producing organic EL elements. The development is part of an effort subsidized by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology's "Regional Industry-Academia-Government Collaboration Science and Technology Promotion Project Subsidy (Regional Innovation Ecosystem Formation Program).

                      On the 21st, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government started a demonstration experiment of robots that can perform cooking and security tasks at the Takeshiba Passenger Boat Terminal in Minato Ward, Tokyo. The effect of the introduction of seven types of robots, which were selected from the public, will be verified at the 5th Takeshiba Summer Festival, an event held by Tokyu Land Corporation and Kajima Corporation as part of the area management of the Takeshiba district. As part of this effort, they provided the Takeshiba Natsufusu, which provides live music and dining space for local residents and workers in the neighborhood, as a place for the robot demonstration.
