Dubbed Digital SushiroVision, or Digiro, a monitor at each table and counter seat shows animated images of sushi dishes riding around on the conveyor belt that can be ordered. "Digital technology has helped us create a new way to enjoy conveyor-belt sushi," said Kohei Nii, the president of Akindo Sushiro Co., the chain's operator. "Digiro offers a happier and more entertaining dining experience." The move comes after customers became more concerned about hygiene following the COVID-19 pandemic, Nii added. Customers can touch the screen to select what they want, and their orders will arrive via the conveyor belt. Digiro also features family-friendly games that come with prizes. The screen, about 50 centimetres long and 150 cm wide, has been rolled out at the Shinjuku Nishiguchi outlet in Tokyo and the Esaka outlet in Suita, Osaka Prefecture. It will be available at the Tenpaku Yakiyama outlet in Nagoya in October.
