Before they start mixing us drinks and folding our laundry, robots are going to do some seriously important work, like helping stroke victims.
Rice university engineers are launching a two-year program to test a new joystick-based device designed to help stroke victims recover faster. Patients use the joystick to try to move objects around on a screen, and the joystick pushes back when the patients err. The technology effectively tries to get things back in sync, teaching the hand to do what the brain is asking of it.
Several other labs are using robots for stroke-rehab, too, including an ankle-focused device like the one picture here. One MIT scientist envisions an entire gym stocked with robo-assistants.-Gregory Mone

They can be a great activity for children too! I read that those will develop balance, strength, flexibility, coordination, trust and camaraderie.

I do not understand why devices like this are created to administer HGH when over the counter products such as homeopathic HGH and secretagogues will give the same results over time. I found a site that has the following quote about injectable HGH. "Over time these products have the same effect because they all increase IGF-1 enough to cause the renewal of all your organs to larger size with better function. In fact, Howard Turney, The Father of Growth Hormone said "My wife and I have been using (homeopathic HGH)...for some time now...and we are receiving the benefits we were previously experiencing with the injectable form of HGH and at a greatly reduced price." This quote can be found in the book “Feeling Younger with Homeopathic HGH” written by Dr. Howard Davis."
