As part of its huge Computex product offensive, Taiwanese tech giant Asus took the wraps off Zenbo – an all-singing, all-dancing robot that wants to be an integral part of your connected household. 

Zenbo wants to help grandparents remember to take their medication and will call emergency services if they may slip or fall and it also wants to lend a hand in the kitchen.
