the shots shift us without eyebrows locked, could help these labor shortages in wisdom countries that's coming up after a short break. don't forget the website as their d. w dot com and socials, to handle the need for the twitter and instagram piece and the depth of the news. please go and take a look. i may have to be out in berlin from me and the team here. thanks for watching. stay with us. i'm with epi of what you have a good the door. don't take mommy. under your mommy's not coming back. it's over. february 2022 russian troops and fated the ukrainian city of coupons. it was recaptured. 6 months later. the occupation this hard drive under russian occupations

resisted who collaborated? how can life go on after all the terror? not everyone can endure the fear, weeks out every day. when we start to august 25th on dw the in our day and age, it seems like robots can do almost anything. they can cook for us, entertain senior citizens and build our costs. how well this all works, impact is there and how helpful robots truly are. that's our topic on shift today. the robots are increasingly being integrated into the hospitality industry and for good reason. in berlin alone, 10000 few of people are working in hotels and restaurants then before the call with

9 team pandemic. as a problem, the sector is facing globally. people all around the world have left the food service industry and in some cases, robots. i'm now working in this that this far and unique a robot mixes the cocktails, like many bars. the team here is short staffed and making more heat. those can be time consuming robots. some supports the team sting and those are for the same amount of people on stuff as before. meaning we're not planning to replace anybody with the robots. it's just here to support us. human bar tenders can get tired out from certain tasks, but the robots can go on and on. like squeezing lines, for example, of age, pretty nice. i like the robot quite a lot. he can talk back or complain. no, but seriously, it takes a lot of our hands, robots are becoming more technologically advanced and sophisticated, their motor skills. the cobit 19 pandemic,
11:18 pm
has ramped of interest in this type of technology to impart to stop shortages. and the desire for contactless food preparation are also used for service. so move a ton of mislead while others assist white stuff with carrying dishes. still robotics expert, have you been a more skeptical of their practicality? i am not convinced that they actually are really helpful because oftentimes they are slower than human. but of course, these kind of environments are also sort of messy environments. you have to clean up and so on. and that's not always amenable or the right kind of environment for a robot that require us, you know, clean is in order to work the efficiency. so personally, i would also say that's mostly a gimmick today, but they may change in the future. so there's still a ways to go. humanoid robots, in particular, remain a daunting task for developers. like optimised a robot, develop bike time manufacturer,
11:19 pm
a test lot. and the reason presentation is still seemed pretty clunky. but test, let's see. oh you, the mosque is convinced that often those will support or even replace industrial workers in a few years and he wants to produce millions of them. i football and i'm very curious to see how that plays out. the robots developed by boston dynamics seen tom more ads out and we find the company was acquired by hyundai. that's no surprise given that the automotive industry is one of the most automated sectors. the robots have long been used in the automotive industry and they're ideal for mass production. once programs, they can work on specific tasks almost entirely without breaks and without human assistance. ready currently collaborative robots, also known as co bucks, are supposed to assist and support human employees. but it's not always that straightforward. so when the robot needs to interact and to exist with
11:20 pm
humans, then things become tricky because it's not easily foreseeable what humans will be doing, how they will behave, um, what's new things they may be coming up with, etc. so dealing with humans as one of the challenges, you know, but also dealing with task the change and evolve the car manufacturer for just experimenting with direct collaboration between humans and robots. here the co blog can take on some of the more typically strenuous parts of the job working in tandem with human employees. still co butts are all too common yet. even though cool books are being adopted in the automotive industry, it's only about 5 percent. and even then, they actually focus on very limited tasks that involve rather limited interaction and collaboration with the human partner. that may involve something like
11:21 pm
a hand off of an object to a human pop partner. or it means on collaboratively listing an object heavy object . so it's still a very narrow task. the start up noise slow robotics, just working on expanding the functionality of co box by and flipping them with cognitive skills. more complex sensors allow the robots to have a better perception of their environments and differentiate between humans and objects. through machine learning, the robots are expected to their new task much faster without having to be reprogrammed. robots have only ever performed supporting tasks like rubbing an object and placing it somewhere on the content of robots with their ability to understand the environment and react to it's suddenly become skilled workers by and there is no question. robles incredibly useful when it comes to industrial work with advancing artificial intelligence and increasing the refined motor skills.
11:22 pm
they will be able to take on even more tasks. but do we really want robots to be working in all sectors? for example, what do you want the robot to help take care of your grandmother? i love exercising. come and join me if you like. time to get moving in this german nursing home. pep of the robots is there to help guide the residence. the robot is also programs to tell fairytales and play games are welcome change of pace for both the residents as well as for the caregivers. i think i like working with pepper all but it's been, hey, i'm ticklish. and as you can see, the residents are also delighted guys, peppers here to entertain the residents. ideally, the robot should free up the caregivers, allowing them more time for individual care. but so far, the stuff is needed to supervise. social robots like pepper should not be expected

to do what humans can do, says robotics as assessed. maybe even waynesburg the humans have the tendency to over trust the technology and to project that they wants the robot to be in spread. so they believe in their mind that it is a friend. and i think especially when we're talking about people who are older and alone, me in the hall, we need to find a more creative solution so that they can have companionship. not the technology that it could explain to their tendencies and their vulnerabilities. little thoughts. the robots is geared specifically toward eliciting happy emotions. cuddly and soft with big eyes and a warm body temperature. this robots ability to help patients with dementia is being tested in denmark. no manhattan minutes people suffering from dementia tend to get lonely and become closed off from their surroundings. that's why it's important to have a high quality of life. as you get older, you know,
11:24 pm
i was coming. that is, that they will do is create, see the 1st results from the study and robots showed, there were some positive effects like making people smile. but researchers also found the one know significant improvements overall on the social well being of patients that we might want to say it's cute and cuddly and it has a certain temperature. so i can how give just this is not your dog. this is a product that has been designed to watch new targets so that it can record your heart rate so that it can get more data or you and provide benefits, economic benefit for the company. a move on one spirit as opposed to increasingly human knowledge care of robots. instead, they should resemble precisely what they are machines. and the robotics industry many beg to differ as the android so fee of shows social robot. so i can, you can help take care of the say, core elderly in many kinds of health care and medical uses. i can help communicate,
11:25 pm
give therapy and provide social stimulations even in difficult situations. i'll be honest with you. i very much hope that sophia will never be my caregiver. i think using robust to replace human into actions is problematic and even binds. but as a different approach, when it comes through how robust technology should be used. we've seen tripp penn direct that we are not taking good care of our caregivers. and a robot can help us take care of our caregivers. and we have a really fantastic shop using technology for good. one specific examples, so called robotic exoskeletons, which help caregivers lift and carry robots can also run errands within k homes, but also out and about. we had to look at how well this works in action. this delivery robot struggles that 1st, but soon, managers to get back on track. star shift technologies is one of the many companies integrating robots into their business model. the robots deliver packages and
11:26 pm
groceries, right to users, door steps in his stony as capital talent t real. so lovely of is testing it out today. the search didn't work as well as i was hoping, but otherwise i got what i, what i was hoping to get. and then placing and confirmed me the order was completely smoked as well. with the app, customers can place orders, track the delivery, and finally, unlock the lid to retrieve their goods. in thailand, each delivery costs one euro. they are fully in control over the timing much more so than was the human korea. so you can have the time it to your arrival. if you don't want to interact with a human for a quote with related reasons, for example, the robot can actually make you feel more safe. the robots drive a ton of mostly using a mix of computer vision and gps to arrive at their destination in order to avoid
11:27 pm
obstacles along the way. they are equipped with 12 cameras, ultra sound sensors, radars, and neural networks. they move at 6 club letters per hour, a brisk pace for pedestrian, but there are a few other limitations. first of all, volume of delivery as limited, and the range from the store is limited to. and so it, it's kind of go off the stairs, especially for people with mobility issues. that's a problem. they have to go down and pick it up and hold it back up themselves. so it's still gonna take some time before robots will manage, climbing the stairs to you, a pop and door for people like me who live on the 5th floor. there's definitely room for improvement, but the developers are working on it and tell him, these drive less delivery robots from 11 have recently started operating in normal traffic speeds of up to 25 kilometers per hour. however, they still humans in the background checking that everything runs smoothly. robots and humans working as a team. robotics expert k need been
11:28 pm
a more believes that is the way to go. personally, i think the best way for leveraging robotics technology is to have them interact and combine their abilities together with humans such that it's the same and just the combination. so if we combine the flexibility in a patient abilities of the human and the abilities of manipulating and dealing with heavy objects, repetitive motions doing something again and again from the robot that i think we get the best of both worlds and we get something that's and rich is a human society of robots improve our lives and could you imagine working side by side with the one? personally, i wouldn't mind having a robot co host was you will take that is no by the

an industrial giant promise willis and low during the as waiting many and have this is in the highlands of robbing them of their land and their future. now all they can do is dance for turns at this image on the food as full pleasure, health and environmental protection as a whole greenhouse gases come from production folks, what kind of to so good for the climate. how should we go about developing climate resilience, vegetables, and what are the key considerations for sustainable tomorrow to day in 2 hours on the w. what are sports?
