Furry Baby-Like Robot Fights Depression in Senior Citizen



What: This Baby-Like Robot helps senior citizens, like your grandma and grandpa, fight against dementia, a type of depression.  this robot is called Babyloid.

Why: This not only helps senior citizens fight against depression, but it makes the nurses that work at nursing homes lives much more easier and less stressful so they are not worrying about their clients.

How:  Babyloid works just like a real baby except it can't show affection to you like a real baby does, but its behavior – crying, smiling, sleeping and making real baby noises – is very similar to that of an actual baby.

Where: You will find the most Babyloids at nursery homes.

When: The Babyloid came out on January 9, 2012
