Intelligent Empathic Robots in Elderly Healthcare

This research proposes an intelligent empathic robotic system for elderly healthcare, combining AI, Theory of Mind, and Affective Computing to deliver personalized care. The low-cost robot continuously monitors patients’ physical and emotional states through wearable data and neural networks, offering tailored support, therapy management, and emergency responses. By integrating ethical principles and patient-specific profiles, the system fosters trust and improves communication between patients, caregivers, and providers. This approach aims to enhance healthcare efficiency, reduce costs, and improve patient well-being through continuous, personalized interaction.
