Secure your valuable assets with smart robotics and data insights
We humanbeing have built a wide variety of social infrastructure facilities on the earth. While new facilities are expected to continue to be constructed in the future, the aging of infrastructure facilities requires accelerated maintenance and inspection work, as well as repair, or even reconstruction of these facilities.
Although much of the maintenance and inspection work for these infrastructure facilities is extremetly urgent requirements, the geographical spread of the inspection work, the difficulty of access to inspection sites/spots, and the difficulty of securing the number of workers are becoming apparent.
Under these circumstances, there are high expectations for the state-of-the-art robot technology and AI-based data collection and analysis technology developed by Hybot, Inc. The company was founded in 2004 by Professor Hirose, a world-renowned authority on robotics at the Tokyo Institute of Technology, and Michele Guaranieri (current CEO) and Paulo DeBenedetto (current executive officer), who were studying under Professor Hirose. The company has received the Robot Award from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Techonolgy Pioneer Award from the World Economic Forum, and in 2016 its products were used to survey the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant Unit 1 building.
Again, modern society is built on a wide variety of infrastructural facilities, but it is difficult to imagine that the ease of inspecting these facilities was taken into account when they were built. I believe that the functionality and convenience of infrastructure facilities must be inextricably linked with the ease of maintenance and inspection work, but the current situation is as described above, and I have high expectations that Hibot's technology and products will be a strong ally in ensuring the sustainability of infrastructure facilities in the 21st century. （AS)
