The flow of conversation for technology (first version):

Initial setup:

1. Assume the painting setup is done by the caretaker and the robot is also with the patient.

2. For every patient, there is a specific database that has the painting suggestions for the particular patient.

The flow of interaction:

1. "Do you want to paint or not" ->Answer will be yes or no. No will lead to exit state. Yes, will continue the interaction with the robot.

2. "Do you want to follow a painting style: Impressionist, cubist, etc, or none"

3. Ask the PwD for a topic, on what they want to draw -> Their own memory provided by the daughter, topics the robot has on its memory, or any random picture. (Use speech for taking inputs from the patient)

4. Robot provides instructions -> The robot now has the picture in the tablet that it's showing. Now it will provide instructions in these ways:

i) How to follow a painting style -> if they chose a painting style in point 2. Provide a list of simple instructions. And repeat them when the patient asks again. 

ii) Give one painting tip periodically.

iii) Ask the user if they want to listen to slow music while painting (but this is secondary) -> play something from Spotify.

5. Collect metrics -> feedback for personalization -> voice input

6. Capture the painting and send it to the relative.
