Japan's Solution to Elderly Care Crisis: AI Robots to Support Aging Population 🤖

Aging Japan turns to AI robots to care for the elderly

As an aging population in Japan causes a severe shortage of care workers, researchers hope 'AIRE' can ease the problem. It is an AI-driven humanoid robot designed to carry out tasks for elderly people who need critical care, such as changing diapers or preventing bedsores. AIREC is being developed by researchers at Japan's Waseda University. Sugano says AIREC can make physical contact with people safely and adjust its actions in response to spontaneous human moves. This care facility in Tokyo is already experimenting with various smart devices to help reduce caregivers’ burden.
