Concept
Our“Avatar Robot Cafe DAWN ver.β” is a permanent experimental cafe operated by OryLab Inc,
where people who have difficulty going out for various reasons remotely operate our avatar robots OriHime and OriHime-D from their homes and hospitals, to provide services.
We aim to achieve a new form of social participation through the use of technology.
Please visit our cafe to see what the future has to offer for all of us.
Come and join us!

About the birth of the Tele-Barista ＞The birth of the Tele-Barista
Despite this setback, Mika harbored a fervent wish: to serve coffee to customers with her own hands once again. Working alongside Sae, another pilot with barista expertise, and in collaboration with Kawada Technologies Inc. and OryLab Inc., they engaged in extensive discussions and experiments. As a result, the "Tele-Barista" was born. This innovative system pairs an OriHime with a factory robot, NEXTAGE, enabling the remote brewing and serving of coffee.
In an era where fully automated coffee vending machines are widespread, our focus is on the unique value of "a cup of coffee specially crafted by someone for you"—in other words, "the trail of someone's act for you." The reality is that we all age and our physical capabilities diminish over time. Tasks that are easy for us now may become challenging or impossible one day.
Nevertheless, our goal is to continue creating and offering handmade items for our loved ones despite difficulties. Through the Tele-Barista, we hope to convey these heartfelt values and invite you to savor a cup of coffee made with our utmost care and affection.

The event will be held on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays at 12:20～/14:20～/16:20〜
※No advance reservations are accepted. please pay the admisson fee on the day of the event.

Introduction
Once bedridden, it is not possible to live a full life.
We are sure many people have felt this way.
Since 2012 Ory Laboratory has been working towards one goal:
the elimination of “loneliness” from the human race.
We have been working with people with disabilities, searching for ways to create a society where people can meet, work, and live like oneself even if one is bedridden or housebound.
In a time where people live longer than ever, we will all be bedridden at one point in our life. We therefore respectfully refer to our fellow individuals with disabilities as "Bedridden veterans." Despite the presence of our bedridden veterans, there is no role model for how to live life after being confined to a bed.
We believe that in searching for a life past being bound, together with our bedridden veterans, we can find this new way of life.
In 2020, the whole world came to a halt and many became confined to their homes.
The inability to go to places that we used to take for granted has caused many of us to lose our sense of community. As a result, new encounters and discoveries became scarce, and new ways of living are being sought. Casting a light on how many of our veterans have been living so far.
A year after the worldwide confinement has started, we are taking a new step forward in 2021.
Could OriHime be part of the answer to the new way of life past the pandemic?
Could people with disabilities participate in society as themselves, meet new people, and earn salaries?
Can we all, disabled and able-bodied, find new communities and participate whilst being confined to our homes?
Under the current situation, the line between "disabled" and "able-bodied" has been blurred. All of these questions have become very actual and their answers indispensable.
We are right now conducting an experiment to pave this new age, where we shape a new society together, for both those of us who can move about freely, and those who cannot. In doing so, we hope to create a shared sense of community and good memories even in difficult times like these.
Please look forward to our new adventures.
