    Notes: Describes the robotization of the Japanese automotive industry. The automotive industry is still the major segment of the industrial robot market in Japan. At the moment, however, annual shipments of industrial robots to the industry are at only 60 per cent of the peak in 1991. This reflects the struggling Japanese economy and low capital investment in domestic car production. Robot applications in car production processes seem to have reached saturation. No new big applications can be expected. Prompt recovery is unlikely.

    Notes: Outlines the main highlights of the JARA (Japan Robotic Industry Association) report A Survey of Technological Strategy for Creating Robotic Society for the 21st Century. This survey was sponsored by the Japanese government's METI (Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. This bulky report (298 pages) may constitute a national guideline of Japanese research and development for the future in light of the future "Robotic Society".

    Notes: Describes recent developments at the Tokyo bi-annual International Robot Exhibition. More exhibitors were present than in previous years, however very few new innovative technologies /products were observed. In the middle of the depressed economy Japanese industrial robot manufacturers are struggling to reduce cost, reshuffle business structure and try everything to survive. A total solution approach and strategic alliances were evident. On the other hand there is a sign of emerging non-manufacturing market, especially in the entertainment area.

    Notes: During the past couple of years advances in technology have dramatically improved servomotor torque performance, and reduced their size and weight to one third compared to previous servomotors. This article describes the background, explores new opportunities in machine design and highlights new applications using advanced motion control to make the most of this technology.

    Notes: Every two years the International Robot Exhibition is held in Japan and is the biggest robotics trade show in the world. The 12th IRE took place from October 28 to 31, 1997 at the Tokyo International Exhibition Center (Tokyo Big Sight, Ariake). Apparently reflecting the recovery of the Japanese robotic business climate nearly 100 exhibitors participated in the event which attracted 155,000 visitors (compared to 140,000 at the last one). The reporter observed a new trend of the Japanese robotic industry. It is evident that efforts are being made to diversify the market into new areas. We saw new applications in the food industry, clean room environment, construction robots, etc. However, only a few intriguing innovations were to be found.

    Notes: The Japanese robotic industry has been very silent in medical applications. However, changes in this can now be observed. Above all Hitachi, an electric/machinery giant, is trying to rebuild its robotic business by entering the medical robot market.

    Notes: Professor Masatoshi Ishikawa of the University of Tokyo, Japan, has developed a super fast vision sensor and a super quick hand (gripper), and integrated them in an impressive demonstration system in which the vision sensor recognizes a free falling ball and the hand catches it in the air. The secret lies in a super fast vision chip and visual servo technology developed along with the chip. A lot of new applications for this new technology in future robotics are expected.

    Notes: Since the advent of Honda's ASIMO and Sony's AIBO, robot fever has broken out in the general public of Japan. However no significant business has yet materialized, except in the pet robot business in the toy industry. On the other hand serious basic research for humanoid robots is going on which may have an impact on the future of robotics. This report describes the current status of Japanese humanoid fever and its reality.

    Notes: A Tokyo based video and image processing equipment manufacturer, For-A Ltd has been developing a new navigation system for wheelchairs. The new system not only provides navigation information to wheelchair users via cellular phone network but also receives "barrier-free" information from wheelchairs to automatically create and update the "barrier-free" map resident in the central computer. Prototypes have been developed and have undergone field-test to prove their usefulness in the real world. Commercial models will become available next year after successful introduction to a new town project nearby Tokyo International Airport. In the future, this approach would also be useful for automatic navigation for mobile robots such as "seeing-eye dog" robots, guide robots etc.

    Notes: A Tokyo-based construction company, Fujita Corporation, has developed the unmanned "Tele-Earthwork System". It features a remotely controlled robot which manipulates conventional construction machines (such as backhoes and bulldozers) in the same way as a human operator. The robot can be easily disassembled into several sub assemblies (usually stored as disassembled parts in individual packages) for easy transportation. Following shipment to a work site the robot can be re-assembled in the cockpit of the backhoe/bulldozer, and made operational within a couple of hours. The developer believes that this hybrid human/robot approach will be very important in the future, both for emergency situations where human access is hazardous, and for the automatization of construction machinery in general.
