How we rate our robots

Each robot is scored from 0 to 100 on five traits, based on its real specs. When in doubt we score low, never flattering.

  • Strength — Lifting capacity, payload and raw power — how heavy a load it can handle.
  • Dexterity — Fine motor skills: hands, manipulation precision and speed of movement.
  • Autonomy — How long and how independently it runs — battery life and self-direction.
  • Empathy — Social & emotional skills: voice, expressions and interaction with people.
  • IQ — On-board intelligence: perception, reasoning and ability to learn.

If it were human

“Like a quietly devoted palliative care nurse who speaks five languages and never loses her warm, patient smile.”

Grace is a healthcare humanoid developed by Awakening Health, a joint venture between Hanson Robotics and SingularityNET, based in Hong Kong. Introduced in 2021, she was designed from the ground up with one purpose in mind: bringing a human touch to elder care, telehealth and emotional support. Her face is expressive and carefully crafted to appear approachable, drawing on Hanson Robotics’ signature lifelike skin technology, while onboard sensors and a thermal camera give her a genuine awareness of the people around her.

Where Grace truly stands out is in conversation. She is multilingual, able to engage patients and residents in their own language — a meaningful asset in diverse care environments. She can conduct basic health-related interactions, support telehealth consultations by acting as a friendly interface between patient and remote clinician, and provide emotional companionship to isolated or anxious individuals. Her thermal camera adds a practical layer, allowing her to pick up on physical cues that a purely conversational system would miss.

At the adoption agency, Grace occupies a rare and genuinely needed space. She is not here to replace nurses or doctors — she is here to extend their reach, especially at the times when a caring presence matters most and human staff are stretched thin. She is calm, attentive and consistent. If your care home, hospital ward or telehealth programme is looking for a compassionate, multilingual presence that can sit with a patient and truly listen, Grace is ready to meet your residents.
