IfyougrowoldinJapan,youwillexpecttobeservedfoodbyarobot,rideavoicerecognitionwheelcha... If you grow old in Japan, you will expect to be served food by a robot, ride a voice recognition wheelchair or even possibly hire a nurse in a robotic suit – all examples of cutting-edge technology to care for the country’s rapidly graying population.
With nearly 22 percent of Japan’s population already aged 65 or older, businesses here have been producing everything from easy-entry cars to remote controlled beds, fueling a care technology market worth some $1.08 billion in 2006.
At a home care and rehabilitation meeting in Tokyo, buyers crowded round a demonstration of Secom Co’s My Spoon feeding robot, which helps elderly or disabled people eat with a spoon-and-fork-fitted swiveling (转动的) arm.Operating a joystick(操纵杆)with his chin, developer Shigehisa Kobayashi moved the arm toward a block of soft tofu, skillfully getting the fork to break off a bite-sized piece.The arm then returned to a preprogrammed position in front of his mouth, allowing Kobayashi to bite and swallow.
It is all about allowing people to help themselves, Kobayashi said.The Tokyo-based company has already sold 300 of the robots, which come with a price tag of $3,500.“We want to give the elderly control over their own lives.”
The rapidly aging population here has caused many concerns: a labor shortage, tax shortfalls and financial difficulties in paying the health bills and pensions of large numbers of the elderly.Moreover, a growing number of older Japanese are spending their golden years away from the care traditionally provided by children and grandchildren.That’s where cutting-edge technology steps in.
