Japan invests in robotics for elderly care

[gwolf666]

Japan is putting money into robots to care for older adults, which is cool. What I think is most important is that they're dealing with more and more older people who need help. I find it really interesting that they're using tech to show they care. It's kind of amazing that older folks are okay with it. To my mind, the top thing is making sure they still feel respected while getting care. I reckon Japan is changing how we think about help for older people.

When it comes to technology, i have always had a high regard for Japan and even most Asian countries, so am not even surprised with this.
