This is ludicrous

In Japan where there will be a shortage of workers due to the declining rate of population growth, they are set to make up for the shortage by using robots. The latest development is there have come robots that could be hired as temporary workers. And some of the task they could accomplish is greet customers and work as receptionist to guide visitors through an establishment. They could also handout goods like balloons or even work in retail stores where they can hand out items with their remotely controlled arms. Till date there are two that are full time employees in hospitals and they guide people around. They can also show video from a projector that is located in their head.
