SEOUL - With South Korea's birth rate at its lowest ever, medical students are resorting to robots to practise bringing babies into the world.
Kyunghee University Medical Centre in Seoul is the first institution in South Korea to use Noelle, a life-sized robot, and her "newborn" to give obstetric students experience.
"With this simulator training tool, we can conduct not only normal deliveries, but also complicated deliveries such as breech births, Caesarean deliveries," Professor Jung Eui told Reuters Television. "Students can practice in a very realistic situation with this mannequin."
