ROBO-HI Corporation has officially started offering a new service, "ROBO-HI® DANCE", that digitally transforms (DX) on-site working environments and human operations using "ROBO-HI® OS" — an Autonomous Operating System (AOS) that enables fully autonomous on-site operation without human intervention.
Rather than chasing full automation in a single leap, the service proposes a phased rollout that steadily lifts on-site profitability with concrete, dependable steps.

THE THREE-STEP ROADMAP ROBO-HI DANCE AIMS FOR
ROBO-HI DANCE is a new AOS-powered service that optimally allocates human and robot resources to the right tasks in the on-site services domain.
The service rolls out and scales in three steps — from "DX of the site and the workforce" through to "integration of robot resources" — tailored to each site's actual state.
STEP 1: [ROBO-HI OS] DX THE ON-SITE ENVIRONMENT AND HUMAN TASKS
As the foundation for robot deployment, this step digitizes the on-site environment and human tasks, building the base for scalable operations.
＜DX of the on-site environment: 3D mapping and task rollout＞
- 3D digitization: Build a 3D map of the target facility, including tasks and the coordination area spanning several kilometers on the digital twin.
- Control environment setup: Deploy concrete tasks on the map. Using location data, the system establishes an environment that optimally controls people and equipment (elevators, shutters, etc.).
＜DX of people: extend capabilities via smartphone and tablet＞
- Skill visualization: Register each employee's skill set so the system can automatically assign the right person to the right task.
- Support via ※EYECAN's core functions: Staff are supported by three capabilities — "AR Navi (shortest-route wayfinding)", "Scan (anomaly detection)", and "Action (AR-guided operations)".

- Boost motivation: Apply evaluation and gamification to lift both productivity and morale.
STEP 2: [ROBO-HI DANCE] CONNECT SKILLS, TASKS AND PEOPLE'S AVAILABLE TIME
Building on the digitized environment, this step optimizes human resources and lifts productivity.
- Optimize the available-time marketplace: Surplus capacity created by leaner staffing is matched to other businesses or industries via a connection platform — opening up new revenue opportunities.
- Strengthen local collaboration: Optimize staffing support and task delegation between neighboring stores, beyond the boundary of any single site.
Step 2 expected outcome: a 30% reduction in headcount.
STEP 3: [ROBO-HI DANCE] CONNECT SKILLS, TASKS AND AVAILABLE TIME BETWEEN HUMANS AND ROBOTS
Robots collaborate fully within the DX'ed service area, delivering deeper headcount reduction and highly efficient on-site operations.
- Hybrid operating model: Robot work is deployed on the map. Robots handle heavy-load transport and floor cleaning, while humans take on precision work or direct customer service. The system auto-assigns work based on fit.
- Combined physical control: When a robot gets stuck at a security gate, the system automatically alerts staff and hands off seamlessly so the site is never interrupted.
Expected outcomes by the end of Step 3:
- 50% reduction in headcount
- 20% robot adoption
- 70% reduction in training cost, including multilingual support and tutorials.
