A:

Healthy Living, you could go with something that can help the elderly with stuff, especially with the world’s aging population. Prehaps one that can help remind them to take their medication. It will have to speak or flash a picture of the medication they need to take at the appropriate times; not too sure if you can do that, but if you can, probably something good to go with.

A:

Robots that could sit on the computer 24 hours a day and give half-baked answers to random questions. We would all get more sleep.

A:

I think if you built a sort of robotic suit that you could fit into, you could program it to run for miles and you are wearing this so it forces you to run even if you get tired you will still be running until the program completes. This would make us exercise beyond the “giving up” point or beyond the “hitting the wall” stage. So people could get much more exercise in, you could also program it for resistance so the person has to run but with resistance against his forwards force thus making him work harder to run and building mussel that way.

A:

robots that can make smoothies within themselves, refrigerate vegetables and fruits
