The Girls’ Schools Association posed the question “What will robots be used for in 50 years’ time?” to Year 7 girls (age 11-12) in their schools around the UK and were inundated with imaginative responses and incisive comment.

Amina Lahham’s entry was selected as one of the winners from one of the many thousands of entries. Amina’s work was titled ‘RoboDoc’ and “will keep people safe from infectious diseases because the Robodoc will be equipped with everything and the doctors will be helping from a TV screen. Also it will be full of vaccines, anaesthetics and disinfection to help the ill person. But if the person is having a heart attack he will be immediately transported to hospital. Robodocs can also be used in wars to keep the doctors safe. The glass will be bullet proof and if needed there will be a metal foldable roof. They will open and drop on the amputated person and fix him.”
