“As well as being distressing in and of itself, loneliness can dramatically increase risk of heart disease, stroke, and dementia, according to a The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine report which found that one-quarter of Americans aged 65-plus are considered socially isolated. Addressing these alarming statistics, #ElliQ is a pioneering voice-operated tabletop companion robot designed to alleviate loneliness and empower independence. Aimed at keeping older adults active, connected and engaged, the AI-powered ElliQ initiates conversations, provides information such as news and weather, and plays trivia, workout videos, games and music. https://lnkd.in/gPXTyi53 Intuition Robotics Los Angeles Times Dor Skuler Ronen Soffer Amalia Katz-Doron #AgeTech #AI #robotics AgeTech Collaborative™ from AARP
