Project Summary/Abstract Advanced Medical Electronics Corporation and our partners propose to develop a Socially-Assistive Robot (SAR) system for persons with dementia (PWD),(mild cognitive impairment, Alzheimer's disease, or other dementias), who are living in assisted living facilities. The proposed system uses Augmented Intelligence (AI) to communicate with the PWD in natural language. The system's goals are three-fold. First, the system helps PWD transition from living in their homes to ALFs by fostering relationships and conveying schedules. Second, the system enables PWD to age in place by addressing the challenges that often lead to an escalation of care (i.e., nursing homes). Third, the system engages PWD via activities such as storytelling and simple games. We will integrate the proposed SAR system with current assistive technology, which is based on the evidence from tested, personalized psychosocial approaches to deliver non-drug intervention to improve everyday behavior, function, and quality of life in PWD. A strong multi-disciplinary team of engineers, academic experts in SAR and PWD, and a commercialization partner has been assembled to achieve these goals.

项目摘要/摘要 高级医疗电子公司和我们的合作伙伴建议开发一个社会协助的机器人 （SAR）痴呆患者（PWD）的系统（轻度认知障碍，阿尔茨海默氏病或​​其他 痴呆症），住在辅助生活设施中。拟议的系统使用增强智能（AI） 用自然语言与PWD进行交流。该系统的目标是三倍。首先，系统有帮助 PWD通过建立关系并传达时间表，从住在家中到ALFS。第二， 该系统使PWD通过解决通常导致护理升级的挑战来使PWD衰老 （即疗养院）。第三，该系统通过讲故事和简单游戏等活动与PWD接触。我们 将将拟议的SAR系统与当前的辅助技术集成 经过测试的个性化的社会心理方法，提供非药物干预以改善日常行为， PWD的功能和生活质量。一个强大的多学科工程师团队，SAR学术专家 PWD和商业化合作伙伴已经组装以实现这些目标。
