NEC held another PaPeRo workshop, this time at Tsuda College for Women.

Robots appeared at the Int’l Modern Hospital Show 2010 in the “Future of Rehabilitation Care” section.

NEC is leveraging years of R&D in robotics to augment their self-checkout system.

Unfortunately they aren’t for sale.

NEC is opening the lid on their communication robot PaPeRo with a new 3-year lease program open to corporations and researchers.
