Advertising in the Journal and/or on the Website of the Robotics Society of Japan
Approximately 4,000 members and supporting members engaging in research, development and practical tasks relating to robots subscribe to the Journal of the Robotics Society of Japan. The Journal is also offered in libraries and other facilities, mainly of major universities and research institutes nationwide, via regular sales channels. It is therefore believed that the Journal is an extremely effective medium in terms of planning advertising activities regarding robot-related parts, software, testing devices and other products.
Broad Array of Robot-Related Fields
There is a broad array of fields related to robots. There are the devices, such as motors, actuators and sensors. There also is the software for information processing, control and other functions, as well as those relating to artificial intelligence. Then, there are the materials and structural design that actually integrate and/or construct the foregoing. Further, there are the psychological considerations, design and elements that affect the relationship between robots and humans. There is no end to the list. It can therefore be said that the Journal of the Robotics Society of Japan and JRSJ website are ideal for the pinpoint transmission of the required information to subscribers and browsers from a broad spectrum of genres.
Additionally, the genre of robots itself has also expanding at a furious rate in recent years. Examples include industrial robots for plants, robot pets that provide healing and comfort in homes, robots that provide services in healthcare and nursing scenes, rescue robots that are most effective in times of disaster and robots that serve as network terminals. It is believed that the research and development of robots will continue to expand moving forward. It is anticipated that the trend will be accompanied by a broadening of the subscriber base of JRSJ and the visitor base of the RSJ website.
