It is a food truck that has a robot cafe in one half and serves food in the other half. Currently, Japan’s service industry is facing major problems. Labor shortages, difficulty securing shifts, increased recruitment advertising costs, and rising staff training costs are putting pressure on management. Our Robot Cafe aims to be a game-changing solution for the industry. The robot cafe system to be announced this time is a dual-armed robot that uses Kawasaki Heavy Industries’ Duaro 2. This robot uses its left and right arms to simultaneously prepare drinks, delivering high-quality drinks in a short amount of time.

We provide efficient and smooth service. Regarding the performance of the barista cafe robot This will be the first system in Japan to provide a one-stop service from payment to drink provision with two hands. (For QR payments, we use Cloud Pay and also support inbound payment methods) *Alipay and Wechat pay are also supported. Make a drink with both arms On the left hand side, you can create a drip cafe and even clean the dripper. The right hand makes drip coffee, cafe latte, matcha latte, and various soft drinks. Production capacity: 40 cups per hour for left hand, 80 cups per hour for right hand Can make up to 120 cups per hour (up to 1 cup every 30 seconds) Furthermore, this project will be the first in Japan to integrate a food truck and a robot cafe system, and will introduce a new business model called a mobile robot cafe. Robot cafes mounted on food trucks can serve drinks in a variety of locations, including event venues and tourist spots, greatly increasing the flexibility of service provision. Social significance and future prospects of AI-equipped robots AZ Japan AI Robot Co., Ltd. aims to utilize the power of AI and robots to solve the human resource shortage problem faced by Japanese society and provide sustainable services. The significance of having a robot create the cafe menu is that it can create a new customer experience. Unlike vending machines, it also has the aspect of enriching people’s hearts.

Why it is a tool that can alleviate the worries of those working in the service industry ・Knowledge and data are accumulated in robots ・It is a robot that can not only reduce costs but also generate sales ・You can make sales by speaking, and the content of what you say will be automatically optimized – Solve the labor shortage and work 24 hours a day ・No need for breaks, no overtime pay ・No need for social insurance premiums, no need for transportation expenses ・No need to adjust shifts, no need to worry about turnover ・No hiring cost, no training cost, no commuting time ・Solution to the problem of not being able to attract full-time or part-time employees (can be used immediately) ・Solves the problem of high costs for recruitment media ・Solution to the problem of people not keeping their shifts even if they are hired (no robots for absenteeism or tardiness) ・There is no need to struggle with organizing shift schedules ・You no longer have to worry about being notified of a holiday at the last minute (You no longer have to worry about not being able to take shifts on holidays) ・Education costs are increasing, but once robots learn, they will continue to work ・If the staff is part-time, there will be a lot of turnover, and training time is required, so there is no need to worry about them changing jobs ・In the case of staff, once they are able to do it, they disappear ・Rising personnel costs and social insurance premiums are putting pressure on management ・If it is a robot, it will work immediately as soon as you turn on the switch ・There is no need to set a high hourly wage because there are not many people hiring, and the robot’s hourly wage will not increase. ・Increase in social insurance burden and further rise in labor costs in the future due to labor shortage

Lack of knowledge about robots 2. Robots are too expensive to introduce In order to solve the above problem, we have prepared a system that allows us to introduce it to more stores using the power of subscriptions. Providing robot experiences to realize a sustainable society Additionally, through this event, we aim to give as many people as possible a chance to experience the possibilities of coexistence and collaboration with robots. By experiencing the robot cafe system, you will be able to realize how it contributes to creating a sustainable society not only in terms of efficiency and convenience, but also in terms of energy consumption and securing human resources. AI and robot technology are not only useful tools, but are also expected to play an important role in future society, and as a means to realize sustainable use of environmental and social resources. We hope that through these initiatives, society as a whole will become more familiar with AI and robot technology, and that we will be able to work together to move towards the realization of a sustainable society. Accelerate enterprise adoption with AI robot subscription model In order to make robots a more familiar presence, we are implementing a subscription-type project that can be introduced from 350,000 yen per month. By combining AI robots and subscriptions, we are providing a system that allows more companies to easily introduce robot systems, which have traditionally had high hurdles to introduction, by reducing initial costs and maintenance costs.
