Me Love RI-MAN



The RI-MAN robot carries a life-sized doll at the Riken laboratory in Nagoya, central Japan. The RI-MAN is a seeing, hearing and smelling robot that can carry human beings and is aimed at helping care for the country's growing number of elderly.

I could have used one of these last night when I fell asleep on the couch and had to crawl up to bed at 4:30 am.

P.S. A smelling robot?

Smelling and caring for the elderly make for a doomed robot if you ask me.

Don't mean to be insensitive..I'm just saying.
