Pregnant Robot Teaches Medical Students

Noelle is a popular pregnant robot being used for simulating the process of giving birth to a baby. Noelle emits realistic pulse rates and can urinate, breathe and even undergo bleeding.
Noelle can labor for hours and produce a breach baby or unexpectedly give birth in a matter of minutes.
She ultimately delivers a plastic doll (with umbilical cord) that can change colors, from a healthy pink glow to the deadly blue of oxygen deficiency.
Noelle costs upto $20,000 but still in demand because medicine is rapidly moving away from centuries-old training methods that use patients as guinea pigs and turning instead to high-tech simulations.
