The Samsung Bot Care gets around on a set of wheels and has expressive eyes that blink and respond when it sees you.

Samsung hopes the shiny white robot can help the elderly stay healthy by disbursing medication, checking vitals like blood pressure and heart rate, as well as keeping track of sleep quality. 

The Samsung Bot Care also offers exercise suggestions and helps users manage their stress.
