We are deeply grateful to have been selected for the King Salmon Project to conduct a feasibility study on the use of telepresence robots in Bunkyo City’s administrative setting.
This initiative represents an important step in exploring new work styles and communication methods that leverage technology to enhance and streamline administrative services.
Through telepresence robots and digital twin technologies, iPresence aims to help solve challenges on the administrative front lines and demonstrate new possibilities in remote work and remote operation.
We will share insights gained through this demonstration widely with society and strive to contribute to digital transformation in the public sector. We appreciate your continued support.
