- Development of Disaster Response Transportation Technology using Cableway Technology
- The important issues of material injection into the interior of craters and caves on the Moon and transportation of mined resources require automated technology that reduces the risk of transportation routes and is excellent in dealing with the work environment. In this development, by utilizing cableway technology, which is a stable material transport, for disaster response, technological research and development will be conducted to put supplies into caves on the lunar surface and to develop a continuous transport system between the lunar permanent shadow and the sunlit area.
- Technology that enables rapid and efficient transportation when a disaster strikes is highly needed in society, such as for early restoration of infrastructure and other facilities. On the ground, the goal is to develop a technology that enables early restoration of infrastructure and other facilities through remote and automated control by developing a simple strut and a portable winch with improved cable yarding for the cableway technology of overhead line collection.
