Abstract
Older people living at home have been reluctant to go out because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Concern has arisen that older people might feel isolated and that their cognitive function might decline. For this study, we used the “LOVOT” family robot in homes of older people to elucidate factors related to isolation reduction and cognitive function maintenance and improvement.
