Japanese Robots: iREX 2013 Primer - Japan's International Robot Exhibition
Okay, First of All, What's iREX?
We’ll resist the urge to just say "Gigantic Awesome J-Robotics Extravaganza!", and go ahead and break it down a bit:
Organizers: JARA does exactly as one would totally expect a JARA to do; it’s a membership organization for Japanese robotics born of Japan’s exploding industrial robotics and automation industry of the late 1960s & early 70s. Eventually, its focus broadened to include personal and social robotics as well. The other primary partner in iREX organization & promotion, the Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun, or ”Daily Engineering Newspaper/Newsletter,” also does exactly what it sounds like it would be doing: providing news and networking for Japan’s engineering and manufacturing sectors and promoting those industries through various events and seminars and great big huge robotics exhibitions in the heart of Tokyo.
