June 14: Robocare Center
We started our day outside on a new train. Everyone seems to be getting more accustomed to the hustle and bustle of the Yokohama station and how to navigate it.
We made our way to the Robocare Center where some of us got to try on the equipment and learn the ways technology is incorporated in recovery and injury prevention. I tried on one which supported my back and muscles!
Afterwards we got lunch and then we had to find the bus, it was like follow the leader and we started running to keep up pace with our fearless leader Mio! The bus brought us to iPark Shonan Health Innovation Park, where they have collaboration between countless different fields ranging from pharmaceuticals and oncology all the way to AI! The design and amenities of the building made it seem like it belongs at the Apple headquarters!
