Imagine the future of elder care and it is easy to envision a robot. Perhaps it is humanoid, standing patiently beside an old person, helping the senior get out of bed, carrying a tray, cleaning the floor or leading a morning exercise session.
In a country where the population is growing older and families are getting smaller, this image has obvious appeal.
