INSOL-HIGH Co., Ltd. (Head office: Otemachi Financial City Grand Cube 3F, 1-9-2 Otemachi, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo 100-0004, hereinafter 'IH'), together with three companies, Yamazen Corporation, Tsumura & Co., Ltd., and Rheon Automatic Machinery Co., Ltd., established a new organization 'J-HRTI (Japan Humanoid Robot Training & Implementation)' on March 26, 2026, with the aim of promoting the social implementation of humanoid robots. In this organization, IH will serve as the secretariat, and participating companies will aim to jointly develop and implement autonomous operation programs for humanoid robots based on actual work.
■ Background and Overview
In modern times, where labor shortages and productivity improvement are urgent issues, humanoid robots are expected to be the next-generation solution. However, to adapt robots to complex tasks in the real world, the following two points are indispensable:
1. Development of advanced autonomous operation programs using vast physical data.
2. Training of personnel who can implement new improvements using humanoid robots on-site.
To solve these challenges, J-HRTI will carry out activities within the following framework:
1) Joint utilization of the Data Factory
Participating companies will jointly utilize the "Data Factory," an implementation-oriented data factory provided by IH. Tasks extracted on-site will be promptly converted into autonomous operation programs, establishing an efficient data learning environment. Based on actual work processes provided by leading companies in various industries such as Yamazen, Tsumura, and Rheon Automatic Machinery, highly practical autonomous operation programs will be developed and implemented on-site. By sharing knowledge through inter-industry collaboration, the social implementation of humanoid robots in Japan will be strongly promoted.
2) A new improvement process named PX
Moving beyond existing localized automation and based on the perspective of fundamentally redesigning entire business processes, IH proposes and names a completely new improvement process that transforms "labor itself" in the real world as "PX (Physical AI Transformation)." To put this into practice, the "PX Practice Study Group" will be established within J-HRTI to train on-site improvement engineers who can redesign labor structures using PX methods. Engineers from each company who have mastered the methods will accurately extract robot replacement tasks with high return on investment (ROI) from actual sites.
■ Role of INSOL-HIGH
In the new organization, IH will function not merely as a technology company but as an "implementation design company," comprehensively playing the following key roles as the core of PX promotion:
Center Operation: Providing and operating a data factory that reproduces diverse on-site environments as a demonstration venue.
Task Design: Structurally decomposing and defining complex human tasks into units (microtasks) that robots can learn.
Implementation Model Construction: Building highly practical models suitable for on-site use and creating successful cases of social implementation.
Platform Provision: Building and providing a mechanism (REAaL Platform) that converts collected data into implementable intelligence.
■ Organization Overview
Name: J-HRTI (Japan Humanoid Robot Training & Implementation)
Establishment Date: March 26, 2026
Secretariat: INSOL-HIGH Co., Ltd.
Participating Companies: Yamazen Corporation, Tsumura & Co., Ltd., Rheon Automatic Machinery Co., Ltd. (in no particular order)
