Robots at the train station
Robots at the train station
A Japanese train company createted an enterprise specifically to design machines devoted to do/solve/execute/accomplish/achieve/fulfil countless tasks.
The operators of the Japanese railways are hoping that if robots take over certain services, part of services at the train station, that could lead to significant improvement in quality and the passangers will experience less annoying events.

The East Japan Railways announced last week that they created an enterprise named JRE Robotics Station to create such robots, designing robot systems which helping the passangers in different ways: for example providing information or package/baggage transportation/carrying (this last one is intended for disabled and physically handicapped persons). They are also designing machines for cleaning and sorting at the train station.

Beside these the security robots makes another category which for example can successfully detects the supermarket thieves - they would like to use these elsewhere because the train company beside their main activity operates hotels and supermarkets across the country.

According to the conception the robots will can speak and understand multiple languages.
Currently only the main elements of the concept are clear. We don't know when the first members of the robot crew/staff will start their work.
