Medical Assistance Enhanced by Technology, from Guiding Robotic Dogs to Electric Stimulation for Tinnitus

Reported 12 months ago

The application of technology in various fields is expanding, with recent developments including the testing of a 'robotic guide dog' at Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China to assist visually impaired individuals in safe navigation, as well as the creation of a material similar to living skin using human cells by Japanese scientists to give robots lifelike facial expressions. Moreover, British researchers have developed synthetic skin to simulate inflammatory responses, aiding in drug development for skin conditions. Additionally, innovative treatments for conditions like tinnitus in the US and the use of robotic animals for religious ceremonies in India exemplify the diverse ways technology is being harnessed for medical and societal benefits.
