Global medical robots market: Development of robots to assist the elderly population
The need for elderly care robots has increased due to the rapid growth in the elderly population and shortage of technicians. According to the NCBI, the number of people across the globe aged 60 years and above is expected to increase from 962 million in 2017 to 2.1 billion by 2050. Some of the countries are facing a shortage of caregivers for the elderly population. Therefore, the vendors have been increasingly concentrating on developing robots to assist the aging population.
“Around 20% of the current population in Japan is 65 years or above. Therefore, Japanese companies are focusing on the development of carebots. The carebots are precisely designed to assist elderly people. For instance, Honda's ASIMO robot is an autonomous, humanoid robot that assists elderly people by getting them food or doing other household chores. The growth in the geriatric population creates issues such as lack of healthcare centers and healthcare professionals, which increases the need for robots to meet the requirements of elderly people and improve their quality of life,” says a senior research analyst at Technavio.
