RIKEN’s RIBA RI-MAN, Robot Bear Robot, It’s Part Humanoid Cause It Can Pick-Up Humans.

Riba Ri-Man-robot

This project robot is the RIKEN’s RIBA RI-MAN, a robotic Bear headed robot. The use of the RI-MAN robot is to get injured patients out of bed and into a wheelchair with comfort and ease, because human obviously can’t do it. The only part about the robot that makes me confused is the face, it’s the face of a cute defenseless bear, but in the wild bears are 100% killers and meat eats, so I’m at a loss for the concept for the bear face.
