Defining Autonomy for Wellness Robots in Senior Care
An examination of how socially assistive wellness robots could support the seven dimensions of senior wellness, and how a framework can measure their autonomy.What Attendees will Learn Why the senior care crisis exceeds incremental automation. Demographic pressure, workforce shortages, and a daily wellness-programming gap all strain traditional care models.What defines a wellness robot as a category. The seven ICAA wellness dimensions and eight properties separate these robots from companion and medical devices.How autonomy can be measured with CRAS. This six-level scale, modeled on the SAEJ3016 driving standard, evaluates four care dimensions.What maps the road to full autonomy. The paper examines technical capabilities, clinical evidence, and a three-phase roadmap toward the early 2030s.Download this free whitepaper now!
