A major milestone for companion robots in Japan! Kata Friends are now available in leading nationwide electronics chains including EDION, Yamada Denki, Bic Camera, Yodobashi Camera, and Joshin.
This marks the first time a robot like this has rolled out across such a broad physical retail network — you can go in, see it in action, interact with it, and take one home the same day. No more waiting for online orders and shipping.
Do you think we’ll see something similar in the US soon? Could Kata Friends make it into Best Buy, Walmart, Target, or other big-box stores?
