    The Tokyo Metropolitan Government (TMG) conducted a demonstration test of a transportation robot on the Marunouchi Building grounds in Marunouchi, Tokyo. The effectiveness of the robots was verified as a solution to the social issues facing the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, such as labor shortages and the burden of transportation work. The event was designed for the last mile in logistics. The robots, "Marble" and "Effibot" provided by Up Quality (Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo), were used to transport the cargo from the unloading point to a sales store about 100 meters away. Marble went to the destination autonomously, and Effibot, loaded with farm products, followed Marble. In an environment where an unspecified number of people come and go, we verified issues for practical use, such as safety and stability. This demonstration experiment is the third phase of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's "Tokyo Robot Collection" project.

      Kick-off event for the MLIT Digital Data Platform

      The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) has established the National Land Transport Data Council to build a "National Land Transport Data Platform" that will serve as a foundation for linking data on national land and economic activities held by industry, academia and government. The council will recruit members who will utilize the platform and provide data. A prototype version of the platform will be made available to members, and issues will be identified to hasten its practical application. Members will be recruited from corporations, experts, government agencies, and individuals. We want the prototype to be used as soon as possible, and we want to bring together the knowledge and expertise of industry, government and academia to develop and improve the system," he said, expressing his hopes for the private sector.
