Where’s My Robot? May 29, 2015
Robots and Mental Health Robotics in general terms needs to think past outdated and outmoded perceptions of what robots should look like… Mori warned us many years ago… our human-robot interactions need more imagination now… probably more than ever before. Health and social robotics are very personal, ontological even… and personal robots require characteris […]

Personal Modular Robot May 22, 2012
The two cloth climbing examples below inspire the idea of a modular personal robot which can detach from its base and climb onto the lap or even perhaps the bed of its user. The utility of a robot with these abilities presents multiple scenarios and health monitoring/telepresence possibilities for disabled and elderly people. The base […]

Care Home Abuse in the UK April 24, 2012
In recent years the exposure of failing state aided services for the elderly has gathered pace in the UK. The video below taken from BBC’s Panorama is the latest and probably the most disturbing, gratuitous & shocking example we have seen to date. https://youtu.be/N5hjHBtO-yY It’s worrying to note however that this abuse was only exposed […]

Fujitsu Teddy Bear Robot February 8, 2012
At last an attempt to make a decent companion robot. Cute as he is though, he doesn’t seem to actually do very much.

I still get the feeling that these large corporations haven’t spent enough […]
