Social Robots to Reducethe Digital Gap for the Elderly

Main researcher: M. Malfaz J.C. Castillo

Robot ayudando a un senior

Description

In the current post-pandemic context of COVID-19, if there is one thing society has been aware of, it is the human need for connection. However, during the pandemic, more than a quarter of the elderly who do not use the Internet said that they were unable to carry out various procedures such as health, social, administrative or banking. This makes them feel isolated from society.

We propose to reduce the digital gap of the elderly and increase the time they stay in their homes through the use of social robots with a high degree of bonding with the elderly.
