Mrs. Dave will be happy to hear of this. I've sat with the poor woman numerous times while they tried to get blood from her veins. I remember an afternoon in a hospital a few years ago when three different phlebotomists tried their luck, leaving her in misery with a painful arm. Each warrior was "our best, no really, this one really is our best!" The third "our best" finally got it.
A robot with ultrasound and imaging is bound to do better.
Hmmm. I wonder if they've tried using the robot for artificial insemination.

Among my daughter's skills is phlebotomist. I think the only place she did blood draws was at the animal hospital in Myrtle Beach. She claims that the ability to draw blood from a 100 lb Labrador is sufficient proof of her credentials.
As for your other suggested use of robots, I don't want to watch the video.

It's true that not very many good videos have been shot in a cow barn. And while the little robot with the long arm wanders across the cement floor skipping over manure channels, there's a certain likelihood he'd drop the short straws containing the stardust that makes more cows. Or in the low lighting confuse them and give Bess the one from Melvin rather than Brute.
Best to find a local Film curriculum and have a group of college students shoot the epic as a class project. Call the production, "A Moo Story," or "Un Chant d'Moo," or "Splendor in the High Grass," or "Four Feedings and A Rub Down," or "Not That Moo, My Udder Moo."
Of course, that's only if you trust college students in a barn.

Now that it can do that the next step will be giving enemas. Certainly free up a lot of nurses hands!
