I think people miss the point of the video. it is not about Japan beeing the leader in Robotics, but how its society is integrating it in a unique way.
8:10 My visit to Telexistence showed me that in Japan, robots are not just a solution to the socioeconomic issues the country is facing. They represent the possible future of work, in all sectors of the economy.
@@laviefu0630Beyond solving socioeconomic issues, Robots & AI may be the solution of mental health. They may be the friend/therapist that ppl need but are too embarrassed to ask.
Japanese robots are like what the 1980's thought robots would be like in the 2020's To be honest the robots coming out of China and USA are decades ahead of Japanese technology.
It used to be the other way around, and I'm not convinced that the tables have turned. Boston Dynamics has lots of media coverage in the west. Japanese companies don't.
I have yet to see Boston Dynamics being used for commercial applications. They have been doing research work that is the task of universities, and making cool tech demos (sometimes fake) to hype investors into giving money for the last 15 years
@@B0XMATTER Boston Dynamics is funded by UAS tax payers so it doesn't have to be commercialy vaiable, but I hope they will do some robots that are. Meanwhile at 3:43 we can see a robot that is very similar to Boston Dynamics "Handle" robot.
I've seen this already in the 90s, same thing, useless welcome robots, and the only place robots are actually useful is in factory, just like in the 90s. Wow, a forklift.
Awesome to see advancement in robotics in fields like farming, construction,... Great work by Japanese companies to bring this tech to us. Awesome video and keep up with great work ❤❤❤
I went to Japan early this year and was disappointed at the lack of progress in technology, seeing only one gimmicky robot in a shop. I expected to find some cool Japanese smart phone or other gadgets to buy but just found the same ones we have in Europe. It seems like a decade behind China on everything. The toilets are awesome though.
"It seems like a decade behind China on everything." Keep in mind, China fakes everything. That Huawei "in-house" chip? Yeah, smuggled Intel chips that had their serial info lasered off and re-printed with falsified info. It's easy to look ahead when you just need to fake some stuff to show off for a heavily-curated tour.
That's why Japan is better to other country. Japan: robot make production efficient. Other country: robot make production cost cut. That's not how the economy should work. Japan make it right.
I know folks with Bloomberg’s needs that 10% workforce replaced by robots for investments and stuff but was it necessary putting Japan on back burner for robotic human harmony type of stuff? Don’t forget Tesla is more autonomous than Toyota and Mitsubishi. What? Next time robots took somebody’s job and they started blame some Asian person on the street?
Lived in Tokyo many years and I can't stand these sorts of reports - reiterating the same tropes of "ultra modern" Japan; clips of the shinkansen and the robot cafe in Shinjuku, etc. It's based on a sort of positive stereotyping that belongs to the 1980s. The reality is Japan is facing serious fiscal and demographics challenges, and has been slipping down all sorts of rankings for decades now. The suggestion that automation is going to solve the nation's problems is pure wishful thinking. In a sense, it's highly political: a distant promise of robots, rather than accepting immigration or any other structural changes now.
The cultural and attitudinal differences between North America and Asia, particularly regarding robots and automation, are stark. In North America-take Canada, where I live-there’s significant resistance to automation in certain industries. For example, longshore unions explicitly forbid the introduction of automated technologies like self-driving cranes or vehicles. Any attempt to introduce such advancements is met with immediate strikes. In fact, union contracts often include provisions that ban efficiency improvements outright. This mindset has resulted in inefficient practices. Ports like Vancouver, Los Angeles, and Long Beach are frequently ranked among the least efficient in the world, largely due to union-imposed restrictions on automation. Despite having more workers than jobs and often working limited hours, these ports maintain a large workforce, prioritizing job preservation over operational efficiency. They even shut down on Sunday and all holidays.... The general public also seems resistant to concepts like Kaizen-the continuous improvement philosophy widely embraced in Asia-which further hampers productivity and innovation in these sectors. Productivity improvement is almost a dirty word in large places here in Canada.
Bloomberg - lets make a thesis, it doesn't mater is it true or not - people use to associate japan with technology, lets make material about it! Meanwhile: Japan economy shrinking, ¥en is the cheapest in this century compared to USD, but still work ethic in JP is horrible and after hours very common. Maybe you should make video about it?
7:02 If it's not humanoid, I don't see how this scales up. Japan is not advancing as much in humanoid robots as the US and China. Japan is gonna get left behind in this sector of robotics.
An automated-tractor is basically like a automated-shipping truck. so a guy doesnt have to sit in it for 8-16 hours a day? i dont really think thats "revolutionary" perse.
Is this reporter still living in the 1990s? If we talk robotics its all about China and America now. Japan is a dying society were most young Japanese wants to be a ramen chef rather than an engineer.
No, sorry 😅😅😅 even though robots are ingrained in Japanese post-WW2 pop culture, Japan sadly has ceded that title to China.. China is doing more research and development in advanced autonomous robotics than Japan does. You dont see Japan spearheading in robotics like US and China does, with Tesla, Boston Dynamics, Unitree, etc.
Sorry but I was expecting actual robot assistants or autonomous transport drones in Japan by now...don't even get me started on all the android/cybernetic dreams that Japanese pop culture inspired since many decades ago but didn't even try to make it in reality. It's like Japan is stuck in the past.
Many people commenting here that Japan is not at the forefront of Robotics need to realise that the country is in desparate need for adopting Robotics so that will ensure they will take the lead!

Exactly. Its about a society that experiences population decline and uses robotic automation to compensate for that.
