Robots Taking Care of Seniors - The Future is Now

The future is here, or at least they're working on it. The somewhat spooky prospects of the elderly being cared for by automatons is quickly becoming a reality. A recent CNN story covered seniors who already have robot assisted help for daily tasks. 'Mr. Robin' is a mobile bot developed by GiraffPlus that has a touch screen tablet attached to it where the robots head would be. At an apartment in Italy where 94 year old Lea Mina Ralli resides, Mr. Robin monitors her vital signs and activity via remote sensors located around the home. This information is sent to her caretakers and if there is an emergency they can be notified imitatively. The tablet device on the android also makes it possible for her to connect with her family.

Though these advancements are remarkable and prove to be expensive for companies willing to develop them, it may be just a matter of time before something looking a lot like C3PO is making breakfast for your grandmother and taking out her trash.

Artist Nickolay Lamm has created a stunning series of images displaying the evolution of the human race over the next 100,000 years

Just as the human face has evolved considerably since stone age times so it is expected to keep changing in the future.

Today the human brain is three times the size of our primate ancestors. As our brains grew so did our heads get bigger, our skulls expanded and our features became flatter.

Now with the advent of wearable technology, such as Google Glass, how will our heads and faces evolve in 20,000 years, 60,000 years and even 100,000 years from now?



100,000 years: The human face will have evolved to be proportioned to the 'golden ratio,' with unnervingly large eyes featuring a sideways blink. Under the skin will be miniature bone-conduction devices implanted above the ear and communications lenses on the eyes
