Robot Operates Eye

Called OriHime-D, the cafe robots are different from AI robots. OriHime-D are manipulated remotely by people using a mouse or their eyes to operate a computer or other equipment. The robots have cameras that capture images of their surroundings, and the operators can move them around and deliver drinks.

In a world first, doctors have used a robot to operate inside the eye and restore sight of a 70-year-old man in the UK.
