Sources: https://learningenglish.voanews.com/a/japanese-stores-test-robot-workers-/5505944.html Summary: In August, a robot will begin placing food and drinks on store shelves in Japan. This is a test that the robot's makers hope will help create a wave of automation in retail stores. Automation is the process of using robots or computers, instead of people, for some jobs. The manufacturer of the robot worker is a Tokyo-based company called Telexistence. Following the test, store operator FamilyMart says it plans to use such robots at 20 stores in and around Tokyo by 2022. One of Family Mart’s competitors is the retail chain Lawson. That company will be testing its first robot in September, according to Telexistence. At first, people will operate the robots from a distance. These operations will continue until the machines’ artificial intelligence (AI) can learn to copy human-like movements. Jin Tomioka is the robot maker’s chief executive. He noted how the technology let people sense and experience places other than where they are. “It advances the scope and scale of human existence,” he said. The idea, called telexistence, was first proposed around 40 years ago by the company’s co-founder, University of Tokyo professor Susumu Tachi. Telexistence calls its robot the Model T, after the famous Ford Motor car. The Ford Model T began the era of mass car use around 100 years ago. The robot looks somewhat like an Australian animal -- a kangaroo. The unusual design is meant to help people feel at ease. Many people feel uneasy around robots that look too human.
