   JR East Shows Human-Controlled Rail-Maintenance Chainsaw Robot

   Japan’s ANN News recently showed footage of an unnamed, rail-truck-mounted robot used by JR East to clear tree branches obstructing railway tracks. Its chainsaw and grabber arms were remotely controlled by a human during the footage. The report said the robot could in the future become autonomous through AI-based image analysis to identify rail obstructions, but that capability had not been demonstrated.
