Misty II - Robot for elderly people

Responsible organisation: Municipality of Barcelona (Governmental)

Twenty elderly people who live alone and already use services provided by the City Council’s Area for Social Rights are to be accompanied in their daily lives by the social robot Misty II. This is the start of a pilot project to analyse the usefulness of a project created for the challenge ‘Improving the quality of life of senior citizens through technology’, launched by the Barcelona Mobile World Capital Foundation. Users will be selected to live with a robot during a trial period. The pilot aims to discover to which extent the quality of life for senior citizens can be improved through assistance with a social robot, by, for example, reducing isolation, monitoring their health, preventing the forgetting of medicine or appointments.
