Thanks to Japan's Softbank, when the robot day of reckoning comes, robots will be there to say a prayer over your frail human remains.

That is the message from this week's Tokyo Int'l Funeral & Cemetery Show, where Softbank's Pepper robot demonstrated its ability to perform Buddhist funeral rites.



Draped in traditional Japanese funeral garb, Pepper not only presided over a faux death ceremony, it also chanted Buddhist sutras, takingover the usual role of a human monk during such ceremonies.

Pepper is not actually performing any real funeral rites, but Japan's Nissei Eco developed the funeral software for Pepper as an alternative when a Buddhist monk isn't available, or when the family can't afford the more expensive human practitioner.


Where the elderly are beginning to outnumber children, cheap, automated funeral rites may soon become the norm.
