Hair-Washing Robot

Panasonic Corporation have developed a hair-washing robot that uses 16 robotic fingers and two motorised arms to do the job. The robot has been created to replicate the hands of a human hair stylist, and is designed to help with the care of the country's "silver generation".

The arms can scan the head three-dimensionally, measure and record the shape in order to determine the precise amount of pressure in the correct locations. Eight "fingers" and three motors on every arm independently control the motion and pressure of the massage movements.

More about this new hair stylist.
