On the morning of September 12, 2025, Shanghai Rushan Robot Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Rushan Robot"), which was shortlisted for the 2025 Silver Hair Technology Partner Program, brought its two core products - the "Qijia Q1" elderly care robot and the "Gewu" multi in one intelligent rehabilitation robot - to Fushoukang Penghai Nursing Home in Beicai Town, Pudong New Area, and held an experience activity of "Elderly Care Robot Entering Nursing Home". The elderly in the hospital personally experienced the functions of the robot, such as picking up and delivering items according to instructions, dialogue, and carrying people, and completed arm exercises, lower limb training, and other movements during the rehabilitation process. The elderly expressed, "I didn't expect intelligent robots to be so powerful now. They can not only speak but also work!" They not only felt the convenience brought by technology, but also experienced the warm companionship provided by smart health care.

Prior to the event, Fushoukang and Rushan Robotics conducted multiple rounds of in-depth research and seminars, using elderly care institutions and households as research samples to understand the real needs in different care scenarios. From every subtle habit in the daily life of the elderly to the high-intensity pressure and pain points of nursing staff work, they have been systematically sorted out. Based on the R&D path of "demand traction and scenario driven", the product structure, functional layout and interactive logic are constantly optimized through front-line feedback. "Qijia Q1" and "Gewu Series" not only have progressiveness technology, but also fit the practicality and humanistic care of elderly care, showing high adaptability and operability at the event site.

Qijia Q1 "is an elderly care robot developed by Shanghai Rushen Robot Technology Co., Ltd., designed for semi disabled, disabled, and single elderly people. It has multiple functions such as life care, mobile assistance, emotional companionship, and health protection. Robots can switch between "operating mode" and "wheelchair mode" with one click, completing high-frequency care tasks such as delivering items, carrying people, and language companionship. The omnidirectional mobile chassis, high-precision force controlled robotic arm, multi-modal interactive large model, and bilateral force feedback remote operation technology enable it to move smoothly, safely, and reliably in complex environments such as bedrooms and bathrooms.

During the activity, the elderly were able to use simple natural language commands to enable "Qijia Q1" to complete functions such as movement and retrieval, providing a vivid and natural interactive experience. Mr. Gu, the director of Fushoukang Penghai Nursing Home, said eagerly, "In the future, we hope to use elderly care robot technology to support nursing and companionship services, improve our nursing efficiency, and provide companionship and emotional care. This is not only a combination of technology and traditional medicine, but also a new empowerment of the traditional elderly care model." Some Fushoukang caregivers also expressed their hope that robots can assist the elderly in getting up and moving in the future. Some of our female caregivers have limited strength when assisting disabled elderly people to get up, and the elderly are prone to instability. We really need the assistance of robots

The on-site caregivers lamented that in the past, a lot of time was spent on repetitive tasks such as delivering water, retrieving items, and pushing wheelchairs during care. Nowadays, robots can share these tasks, allowing caregivers to have more energy to invest in emotional companionship, psychological comfort, and professional nursing. This "human-machine division of labor" model makes nursing more warm and significantly improves service efficiency.

In terms of safety, "Qijia Q1" has implemented multiple aging friendly designs for elderly care scenarios. The robot is equipped with safety mechanisms such as fall detection, intelligent obstacle avoidance, and emergency stop devices to ensure stable and reliable operation in complex and narrow environments such as bedrooms, corridors, and bathrooms. Even in the event of sudden instability or sudden changes in the surrounding environment, robots can quickly respond and maximize the safety of elderly operation and use. In terms of intelligent interaction, the "Qijia Q1" has a built-in multimodal interaction model that can continuously learn the daily habits and preferences of the elderly through big data, gradually optimizing the way actions and language accompany them. For example, when robots perceive that elderly people are feeling down, they will actively initiate conversations or play music, truly achieving the transition from passive service to active care.

·Warm Moments of Activity·

Mr. Ma, an elderly person in the hospital, and several other seniors also had a pleasant experience with the 'Gewu Series' multi in one intelligent rehabilitation robot. This is the world's first home rehabilitation product that covers all joints of the hands, upper and lower limbs, and has won the IF Design Award and been selected for the German National Design Museum. This robot not only supports full joint rehabilitation training, but also remote rehabilitation prescription issuance and rehabilitation data collection. Doctors can track the rehabilitation progress of the elderly in real time through the platform, adjust training plans, and achieve closed-loop management of medical and elderly care. This feature allows rehabilitation training to not only focus on "action execution", but also extend to scientific evaluation and continuous improvement. This product achieved mass production and was exported to North American, European, and Southeast Asian markets in May of this year. Through intelligent interaction and gamified design, rehabilitation training has become easy and fun, greatly enhancing the enthusiasm of the elderly to participate and reducing the work pressure of caregivers during rehabilitation training. The elderly on site experienced the effects of combining technology and rehabilitation through training programs such as arm stretching and upper and lower limb exercises.
