Working with NTT East and Mitsui Fudosan, the company revealed Thursday that it has fitted Tokyo Midtown Yaesu, a mixed-use office and retail tower in central Tokyo, with the autonomous robots, cloud-based control systems and digital-twin infrastructure it has honed at 1784 over four years.
Under the deal, the three firms have launched a cloud-based robot delivery service, ferrying food and drinks ordered through the Line app from restaurants on the basement and fifth floors to offices on the seventh.
Four robots navigate the tower using Naver's Rookie machines, its ARC brain fleet-control platform and ARC eye vision-based positioning technology.
Crucially, the company said it optimized the system to run in ordinary buildings that lack the robot-only elevators and bespoke cloud setups engineered into 1784. The ARC brain platform links the robots to elevators and speed gates through cloud processing, letting them move seamlessly through spaces shared with people.
The three companies plan to widen the partnership into indoor augmented-reality navigation and digital-twin-based building management, extending their reach across the physical-AI field, Team Naver said.
The project was led by Naver Cloud's Japan business team, drawing on Naver Labs' robotics and vision technology.
