Description

Arshia Khan, Rupak Kumar Das, and Rana Imtiaz test a smart living space for dementia care in a 2025 study. People with dementia need support that fits their changing needs at home. The team combined a humanoid robot, wearable sensors, and room sensors in one test apartment.

The robot, named Pepper, chatted with participants, told jokes, and offered medication. Thirty-two healthy volunteers took part in a 90-minute session of daily tasks, exercise, and games while sensors tracked body signals and movement. Chair pressure sensors and the robot's emotion reading matched self-reported mood in 95 percent of cases. Door sensors tracked wandering. The authors present the trial as a feasibility step toward homes that support quality of life in dementia.
