Why It Matters

패밀리마트는 2022년 일부 매장에 음료 보충 로봇을 도입한 이후 보충 속도를 높이는 등 개선을 거듭해왔다. 도쿄의 한 벤처 기업과 함께 물리적 AI를 활용한 로봇을 개발했다.

일본 편의점 체인인 패밀리마트가 일손 부족 해소를 위해 내년 1월부터 음료를 자동으로 보충하는 로봇을 전국 점포에서 본격적으로 도입하기로 했다고 NHK가 12일 보도했다.

패밀리마트는 도쿄의 한 벤처 기업과 함께 음료를 자동으로 보충할 수 있는 피지컬 인공지능(AI) 활용 로봇을 개발했다.

이 로봇에는 카메라가 탑재돼 있어 매대에 진열된 상품이 부족한지 살펴볼 수 있다. 보충이 필요하다고 판단하면 재고 선반에서 상품을 골라 매대에 채워 넣는다.

점포의 판매 실적과 당일 날씨 등을 분석해 잘 팔릴 만한 상품을 우선적으로 보충하는 것도 가능하다. 넘어진 상품을 제대로 세워 놓을 수도 있다.

하루 최대 1천800개의 음료를 보충시킬 수 있어 음료 보충에 걸리는 시간을 70% 정도 줄일 수 있을 것으로 패밀리마트는 기대하고 있다.

패밀리마트는 2022년 음료를 보충하는 로봇을 일부 매장에 도입했고, 이후 보충 속도를 높이는 등 개선을 거듭해왔다.

이 회사는 "(음료) 보충 업무에 걸리는 시간과 신체적 부담이 줄어들면서 남은 시간을 매장 정리와 접객에 사용할 수 있을 것"이라며 "로봇 활용이 일손 부족 해소와 업무 효율화로 이어지길 기대한다"고 말했다.
