Faced with an aging population and a shrinking workforce, Japan has intensified its investment in robotics across sectors like healthcare, manufacturing, and agriculture. In Tokyo alone, hospitals now use AI-powered robots to assist in elderly care and surgeries.
The government is offering subsidies to companies that automate tasks, while also encouraging foreign investments in robotic R&D. This move is being closely monitored by developing nations such as Bangladesh and Nepal, where robotics is slowly gaining attention as a future-ready sector.
As Japan leads in robotics innovation, it sets a benchmark for how technology can balance demographic challenges.
