【緊急出動⁉️】鉄道の安全支える！J西発「人型重機ロボ」関西本線「月ヶ瀬口」駅に！リアル•レイバー⁉️

Next-generation technologies such as humanoid robots and virtual reality = virtual reality will make up for the shortage of manpower. What's running on the tracks...trucks? JR West has been working on a project at Tsukigaseguchi Station on the Kansai Main Line to cut down trees that are interfering with train operations. The robot can maneuver its long, flexible arm to work at heights of up to 12 meters. Masahiro Niki, manager of JR West's Nara Electric Power District, said, “I can't help working at heights. The range of work that can be done at height is inevitably limited. We believe that more work can be done by using multifunctional heavy equipment. The mechanization of work conventionally performed by people will help prevent falls and electric shock. Masahiro Niki, manager of JR West's Nara Electric Power District, said, “There will be a shortage of workers in the future. We believe that this will contribute to the shortage of workers in the future. We would like to proceed with this project while examining how it can be used in various other areas of the line.
