Japan Could Use Robots in Casino Resorts from Next Year

Japan is going to roll out its robot programme in more industry sectors. With the introduction of legal gambling expected next year, Japan could roll out its robotic programme to the gaming and hospitality sectors.
As the number of workers decreases and the country struggles to cope with the demand of a changing society, Japan has introduced robots to schools, offices and nursing homes. Robots are currently operating in organisations in Japan, working as security guards with routine patrols and entertainers in nursing homes.
“We ask residents with dementia where they are and who they are in natural conversation with communication robots and human staff. It’s hard to remember each resident’s personal information, so robots are utilised in that area,” Kimiya Ishikawa, director of a nursing and care firm named Silver Wing, said.
“Japan is facing major demographic challenges due to the elderly wave, low fertility rates and a shrinking population. This leads to a number of issues facing Japanese society which the West can learn from. Elderly care facilities and hospitals see a severe lack of healthcare workers; there are not enough humans to do the tasks the way they used to be done,” Roger A Søraa, Researcher at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, said.
