Aging people in Japan still have people to look after them because the baby boomers who are the biggest or have been in the past the biggest portion of the population in Japan, they have children and the children, there are enough people to look after.

the baby boomers for people who are our age though gen x you could think of them being there's a generation bulge in there called the baby dunkai the dunkai the baby boomers and the baby dunkai the children of the baby members but the baby dunkai are another big group in the population but they're really Beneath us, there's the people that were for our elders.

I think the opportunity in aging tech is a long-term one. And I think it'll come, it really comes from people in their 50s who, yes, they may be able to gently introduce some solutions to their parents as they become available. So things like sensors and stuff that's fall detection and so forth, as that gets better, yes, that's a no-brainer that we can put that in with our parents.

But that tech has to be very unobtrusive. You really can't be asking aging adults past a certain point to be really learning new technology and stuff. It just doesn't really work. But for us... Yes, as we age, I think, yes, we have almost a responsibility to be very conversant with technology. And especially in Japan, as I say, we don't have enough people who are younger than us to look after us.

If we don't look after ourselves as we can, then we're really causing a problem to other people. And Japanese people understand that very well. They're very aware of their impact on other people and they don't want to cause a problem for other people. And being responsible as a person, being personally responsible is a really key value. I think that thinking, that way of thinking

actually works very well with tech, but I think it's going to take a while and it's really a generational curve that we're on in terms of getting to the point where aging technologies are really fully utilized. So we have to have the technology, but as you say, we have to have the mindset.

And I think that our generation has that mindset, but I think we really need to get in early because hour over time, we become more set in our ways. And I think we just want to be aware that we are aging and that we might want to be thinking about this as we get older.

I think that the first thing

to bear in mind is I think this is a huge task, like it has many aspects to it and there are many roles within that and many opportunities, but we're coming, we've of course started off as being researchers, which means that we've spent, for example, we've spent a lot of time in the last five years with people in their homes, for example, looking at how they, how do they prepare their meals as they get older?

How do they clean? How do people go shopping? So where can technology come to play a role in those daily tasks? Now, in the last three or four years, we've done about 25 projects just on those sorts of issues on robotics because we have clients that are looking, how do we build really good human-centric robotic solutions that people actually want to work with?
