1 -= Robot Choice =
2 2  For this project on dementia, we chose to make use of a semi-humanoid robot namely [[Pepper>>https://www.softbankrobotics.com/emea/en/pepper]].

7 -= Pepper Description =
8 8  Pepper is a robot that allows easy communication robot/user, thanks to its ability kit that includes:
9 -* Speech recognition
10 10  * Voice
11 11  * Tablet
12 -* Cameras
6 +* Cameras
13 13  * Humanoid form

18 -= Pepper usage =
19 -We tried to make full use of the sensors provided within Pepper. As we had limited amount of time we mainly focused on working with: the microphones, the speakers, the display and the arms movement of Pepper.
20 20  
21 -The actions we implemented for our prototype include:
22 -* Playing music
23 -* Listening and understanding the PwD
24 -* Speaking to the PwD
25 -* Displaying information on the tablet
26 -* Moving arms to convey message
13 +Moreover, using [[Choregraphe>>http://doc.aldebaran.com/2-4/software/choregraphe/choregraphe_overview.html]], Pepper is highly parameterizable, it is relatively easy to expand the functionalities by programming new blocks, and prototypes can also be done quickly. This is very valuable as we expanded every week our prototype to include new features based on the content from the lecture.

28 -For the actual implemented version, we have enabled Pepper to show images about the current activity when interacting with the PwDs, which can not only improve the efficiency of communication between them, but also makes PwDs feel more cared.

30 -= Iterative Process =
31 --> Describe a bit a philosophy from slides: SCE framework & PACT analysis.

33 -based on:
18 +In assumption, we planned to make it possible for the HCP to modify the calendar/reminder
19 + features with touching the tablet. Besides, to enable Pepper moving around to take care of the PwDs with the help of sensors. Also, it's better to let Pepper communicate with the PwDs both by dictating and showing images, for the decline of recognition ability of PwDs.
