Japanese Shipyard Workers Use Robotic Exoskeleton to Help with Heavy Lifting

Description

Manual labourers working in the Osaka shipyard have turned to a commercial exoskeleton in order to relieve stress on their back, increase efficiency, and stay healthier longer. The Power Assist Suit Atoun Model A, as it is snappily known, uses two high-torque AC, battery-powered motors and a sophisticated gearing system to allow users to far exceed their own strength, enabling humans to lift heavy objects all day without breaking a sweat.

  • Drone urges Japanese workers to leave office following new work-life balance law

    A Japanese company is testing a prototype drone in Tokyo that they hope will help combat the country’s burgeoning overtime crisis. The developers say it will encourage employees to clock off early by blasting Auld Lang Syne – a song commonly used in Japan to indicate the closing time. But at a cost of ¥50,000 ($443) per month for service, some might hope for a choice in music or maybe even noise reduction headphones to dull the constant drone in the office.
