Thanks @msanto92 & @9NewsMelb for capturing the #technology here @RMIT_HealthLab, highlighting the potential for aged care transformation and how it can be enabled by digitally-rich collaboration spaces such as the @RMIT-@Cisco Sandbox.
Researchers are turning to technology to help tackle the backlog of workers in the aged care system. In the meantime, Daniel Andrews says if asked, Victoria will help staff the private sector with nurses. @msanto92 #9News

Thanks @ACMI for hosting us yesterday as we conducted some first-of-its-kind research with @DigitalEthno that is exploring perceptions of robotic in public. If you would like to keep up with Spot's latest activities, you can find Spot on Instagram: instagram.com/spot.healthlab…
Spot the robot dog was spotted at ACMI today. The visit was part of research by @RMIT, @RMIT_HealthLab & @DigitalEthno into the impacts of digital technologies on public spaces. How would you react to seeing a robot?

Some snaps from the @RMIT Future Thinkers Forum, where @NithyaSolomonAU provided inspiration for the #future workforce by highlighting innovations such at the RMIT-@Cisco Sandbox that are revolutionising #health and social justice.
Thanks for having us @RMIT_SIH! Such a thought-provoking session that generated insightful conversations and interactions with the technology at the @RMIT-@Cisco Sandbox.
So great to have OpenLabs back! Thanks to @RMIT_HealthLab @bradcrammond and @BlockchainRMIT @alexiamadd for taking the audience on a exploration of our future relationship with the digital world and showcasing the technology at the RMIT-Cisco Sandbox.
