AI robots could play future role as companions in care homes

Professor Nadia Magnenat Thalmann, a robot expert from the University of Geneva who served as the model for Nadine's dark brown eyes and auburn hair, said Nadine and robots like it could prove more effective than human carers.

"She (Nadine) has time 24 hours a day. The others have no time," Prof Thalmann said.
