现在称为JRA（Japan Robot Aociation）1994
日本工业机器人协会（JIRA）成立于1972年10月,是世界上第一个工业机器人组织。它的宗旨是加速发展工业机器人制造业,推动工业自动化和安全生产。
The Japan Robot Aociation (JARA) is a trade aociation made up of companies in Japan that develop and manufacture robot technology.It was formed in 1971 as the Industrial Robot Conversazione.The aociation was reorganized and renamed as the Japan Industrial Robot Aociation (JIRA) in 1972, and was formally incorporated in 1973.The name of the aociation was changed again in 1994 to its current one in order to accommodate non-industrial robots such as \"personal robots.\" Its headquarters are in Tokyo.
