'Robotic Smart Homes' Set to Improve Lives of Elderly

Description

Fujita Health University Hospital's latest 'Robotic Smart Homes' concept is designed to help care for Japan's rapidly aging population. The innovative project aims to transform elderly people's houses into 'Smart' homes, allowing residents to live independently and actively while being assisting in a range of activities by robots. So far, the team has developed robots which help people walk, cook in the kitchen, and communicate with loved ones.
