  The robot itself is specifically designed for people with dementia, so they are included by default. Other disabilities will be discussed in the following.
--==== Accessibility ====
++==== Perceptual disabilities ====
  The robot is accessible to some degree. The main interaction between the patient and the robot happens in the form of a discussion, so deaf patients are entirely excluded. One way of mitigating this is to make use of video support, through a tablet or phone. The NAO also has haptic support on its head and limbs, which could also be used (for example touch the front of the head to answer "No" or the back of the head for "Yes", but it does not help with communicating the question itself which is the main issue). As the focus of our design is associating music with tasks, we decided not to focus on accessibility for deaf people, and instead assume that the patients can hear both the robot and the music.
