世界人口正在老龄化，随之而来的是新的社会问题，特别是在医疗保健和日常活动方面。尽管偏好人类专业医疗保健，但新的社会经济形势和护理人员的减少使得有必要为康复过程提供支持。在这种情况下，机器人技术可以被认为是一种解决方案，因为它可以提供医疗保健支持，帮助执行日常任务，和/或增加自我管理和自我管理的感觉。本文概述了现有的老年人护理机器人技术，分析了它们对老年人的好处。
The world's population is ageing and, with that, new social issues arise, especially in terms of healthcare and daily activities. Despite the preference for human professional healthcare, the new socio-economic situation and the decrease in care personnel make necessary to give support to the process of caregiving. In this context, Robotics can be considered as a solution since it can provide healthcare support, help in performing daily tasks, and/or increase the feeling of autonomony and self management. This paper is an overview of the existing robotic technologies for elderly care, analysing their benefits for the elderly.
