A useful reality check
PARO is designed for therapeutic and care settings. It can complement human support, but should not be presented as a replacement for care.
Why it caught our eye
The interactive robotic seal is designed for therapeutic and care settings, responding as a companion object rather than a conventional toy. Its strongest idea is emotional presence, while human support remains central to how it should be used.
