About
Telexistence is a Japanese robotics company founded in 2017 by CEO Ren Ito and headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, that develops and deploys remotely operated robots for repetitive physical labor tasks in retail and commercial environments. The company's flagship product is the TX SCARA — a shelf-restocking robot that autonomously identifies and retrieves products from storage areas and places them on retail shelves. The system combines computer vision, AI-based object recognition, and robotic manipulation to handle the highly variable SKU assortment found in convenience stores. Telexistence has deployed its robots commercially in FamilyMart convenience stores across Japan, one of the country's largest convenience store chains with over 23,000 locations, making it one of the world's first large-scale commercial robotics deployments in retail.
