Assistive IoT-centric Robotics for Senior Living

Senior citizens consider the most significant part of aging to be the changes that occur to their bodies. For this reason, they avoid doing body exercises and therefore often prone to heart diseases, muscle disorders and many other ailments. Although weakening of bones and muscles is inevitable as we grow old, we can still maintain our health by doing regular physical exercise. Encouraging elderly people to do physical exercise can be challenging, therefore the Robot-Trainer is introduced to make their exercising journey exciting accompanied by a friendly humanoid robot. The main goal of the system is to program an IoT-Assistive Robot to interact and conduct physical exercise training sessions with elderly people and maintain their physical fitness and mental health.
