Cognitively Assistive Robots at Home: HRI Design Patterns for Translational Science
summary
Multi-year work builds robot prototypes that autonomously deliver Motivationally Enhanced CCT at home and uses video demos, storyboards, and interviews to probe translation from clinic to home. Grounded theory analysis of sessions with 6 clinicians and 3 PwMCI yields eight design patterns (e.g., rewarding perseverance over performance, connecting exercises to real-world tasks, goal setting). Prototypes use a tablet-aligned, small mobile robot for focused, repeatable practice; they function as design probes but do not claim clinical efficacy yet.
