Telexistence announced the mass production of its originally developed AI robot, TX SCARA, to be installed in 300 FamilyMart stores, Japan’s top-tier convenience store chain in major metropolitan areas, starting in late August 2022.
TX SCARA was created to do the specific task of restocking refrigerated shelves with bottles and cans, a repetitive, tedious job generally performed by employees in often uncomfortable settings. TX SCARA can be in operation 24/7, relying almost completely on its AI system to know when and where products need to be placed on the shelves.
The implementation of AI robots in FamilyMart stores will allow retailers to take advantage of the newly created time and economic “surplus" in the store environment. Retailers can focus on further improvements in the store environment for both employees and customers, as well as the profitability of each store.
Telexistence is promoting this initiative based on a collaboration with NVIDIA and Microsoft Japan. Specifically, NVIDIA GPU-accelerated AI technologies are embedded in hardware originally developed by Telexistence to provide AI and remote control of robots via Microsoft Azure cloud platform.
