Researchers are turning to technology to help tackle the backlog of workers in the aged care system.

In the meantime, Daniel Andrews says if asked, Victoria will help staff the private sector with nurses. @msanto92 #9News

[ACMI @ACMI]

Spot the robot dog was spotted at ACMI today.
The visit was part of research by @RMIT, @RMIT_HealthLab & @DigitalEthno into the impacts of digital technologies on public spaces.

How would you react to seeing a robot?
