“Preparing for both Thai society and the world society to enter “senior society” has become very important and increased significantly. There is a shortage of people who will take care of elderly people who are called “Care Giver”.Thai Association for Medical Instrumentation (ThaiBMI) realizes that the work in this area must be accelerated to be able to cope with these problems. One of the urgent tasks is preparing care givers to take care of elderly people who might be robotic to do certain functions such as alerting or alarming when they are in danger, reminding activity schedules, emergency alerts, giving assistance or help as required, stress relief and performing physical rehabilitation. Therefore, study to develop a robot to help the elderly is an interesting topic in the dimension to suit the various needs and is also very important to develop to the practical use. Thai Association for Medical Instrumentation (ThaiBMI) will hold a seminar on “Robotic Technology for the Elderly” or “Robotic Technology for Ageing Care”. In the morning, there is a lecture by an expert in this field. In the afternoon, there will be presentation of about 6 finalists from the contest “robot for ageing care”. I would like to express my genuine thanks to the organizer for their effort in organizing MDA in order to encourage its development for Thailand’s medical device industry.”
