14 DAY TRIAL // IT companies have been making advancements in robotics, but even with breakthroughs few and far between, there is still, like now, the occasional invention that can make people smile.
Panasonic decided to experiment a bit, leading to the creation of the "HOSPI-Rimo" communications intermediary for bed-ridden people, as well as a couple of other things.
Said other items are the RoboticBed, a bed that can turn into an electric wheelchair and vice versa, and the Hair-Washing Robot (we don't need to say what it does, yes?).
It is an unfortunate fact that many people, whether because of medical conditions or accidents, can't lead safe, comfortable and pleasant lives without assistance.
These inventions, set to be showcased at this year's International Home Care & Rehabilitation Exhibition (H.C.R.) aim to provide that help.
For those that don't know, H.C.R. is scheduled for October 5-7, at the Tokyo Big Site in Japan.
