Tokyo tests drone for guiding people in Shinjuku area
The use of a drone to help guide people who have trouble returning home after a disaster was tested Wednesday (Feb 24) in Tokyo's Shinjuku area, in a joint trial involving members of the business community, academia and a local government.
The experiment was planned by Sompo Japan Insurance Inc., which has its head office in Shinjuku, and Kogakuin University, which has a campus there. The Shinjuku Ward government and other organisations were also involved.
