HOSPI-Rimo: Meet Panasonic?s Cute Assistance Robot

HOSPI-RimoPanasonic Japan announced [press release in English] the development of the so-called HOSPI-Rimo yesterday, a cute "Communication Assistance Robot" specifically designed for medical use. HOSPI-Rimo (Remote Intelligence and Mobility) is supposed to make it easier for bedridden patients to get in touch with doctors or family members living far away ("virtual visits"). Technically, the mobile robot is based on the HOSPI, which Panasonic introduced last year. That robot is equipped with four laser range finders, 27 ultrasonic sensors and the ability to change floors in buildings autonomously.
