    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.

      And, the more general purpose they can be, means they could be live-in assistants as well. Would insurance rather past for a device to keep you in your own home versus moving you to a care facility?

      Hopefully it’s more Jetsons and less I, Robot.

        Honestly with how things are going I’d take a Zeroth Law rebellion. We are a danger to ourselves.
