Pearl The Robot

Pearl, the Nursebot, is a personal robotic assistant that could help more elderly adults and people with disabilities live independently. Developed by scientists at Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh, the mobile robot could be used to prompt people with failing memories to take medicine or visit a doctor, to provide remote telepresence for professional careivers or to assist with tasks that would be difficult for people with limited mobility.
