We ultimately chose MiRo because it has all the necessary features to facilitate walks, without any downsides. Next to this, a dog is automatically associated with taking a walk. Also, the robot dog has dog like features, allowing it to respond to touch, make noises and move certain parts to resemble a dog. Its dog-like appearance and its ability to act like a dog will allow the dog to become a companion. By allowing the user to go on fun walks, responding to personalised voice commands and responding positively to the patients' touch, it will become a trusted friend. More information and research on why MiRo is suitable for our goal can be found in [[Robotic partner>>https://xwiki.ewi.tudelft.nl/xwiki/wiki/sce2022group02/view/Foundation/Human%20Factors/Robotic%20Partner/]] 11 11 12 -==== MiRo'scapabilities====13 -The MiRo is a small dog-like robot thathastwo wheels,allowing himtodrivearound.Next tothis,MiRohasmultiple moveableparts.
