National Institute of Information and Communications Technology, JVC Develop 8-megapixel High-resolution Robotics Technology

Robotic technology is being proposed for telemedicine and nursing application purposes. The "humanoid" robot has a vision resolution of 8 megapixels (similar to the limits of human vision) and arms, hands, and fingers. A person wearing data gloves embedded with joint bending sensors can manipulate the robot's arms and fingers via a network.
