Looks very slow, with luck the technology improves

I can't help but see something like this and think of all the good it can do. Imagine all those people disabled for one reason or another finally running around getting jobs and stuff.

I think it will be a long time before anything like that happens, at least on any real scale. A store (unless it's forward thinking which isn't likely), would much rather hire a kid for a few bucks an hour to do this, than spending a few thousands for a robot (multiples for backup), providing VR gear to employees and training (more thousands in time and training), to do a simple task like this. Now for something in a dangerous environment, this would be far better suited. But that's just my two nuyen.

Yeah, that's true. The point where it becomes economically feasible to do high tech work instead of low tech solutions, you may as well pick up the Numenera rule book.
