The “employee” named Robovie, a creation of the Kyoto-based International Research Institute for Advanced Telecommunications (ATR), guides customers to the sales area of the official Cerezo Osaka football team store.
Robovie warns customers when it detects through a camera and 3D laser technology that they are not wearing a protective mask for the new coronavirus or that they are not following the rules of social distancing.
The assigning of the task to Robovie was undertaken in the framework of a trial that began last week and will last at least until the end of the month. This will be extended depending on the situation, according to the ATR.
