I like their mentality of trying new tech and seeing what is effective. It seems like there are many opportunities for robots to bring improvement to a care home but without an open mind and trail and error it will never be found.

Personally I think Sensors in beds and robots that helps assist daily tasks is the most useful as long as it’s built simple and cheap to run.

I don’t want to see care homes paying 10 grand for a bed that has a $2 liquid sensor in the bedpan.

Japan had been trying to pull off this trick for years. There’s an easier solution. It’s called immigration, but Japan has been ruled by conservatives who refuse to see a difference between nationality and ethnicity. There are a lot of nurses from developing countries that would be a lot more effective than a can of Pepper.
