Researchers from the Social Robotics Group at the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M) have created an innovative AI-based methodology that enables a pet-type assistive robot, named Mía, to recognize individuals during interactions. Currently, this prototype is undergoing testing at day centers operated by the Madrid City Council, where it aims to provide personalized emotional support to elderly individuals experiencing cognitive decline. The initiative seeks to enhance the quality of life for these seniors by fostering meaningful connections through advanced robotic technology.
