They will feel less of a burden and more freely. This hopefully gives them a sense of their "normal", "old", life they are used to continuing. 9 9 10 -- Social stimulation. The robot can, in the cases that it is needed, according to our design also be a social companion and engage in small talk or talk regarding the person's interests. Another idea is potentially gathering multiple PwD in the garden or something like that, which could provide another social opportunity. 11 - 12 -- Fulfillment. PwD will, hopefully, feel more fulfilled knowing they are able to go outside on their own and move more freely, without having to wait for a person or feel like they are taking up somebody's time. Hopefully, this will make them feel more able and give them a sense of their "normal", "old", life they are used to continuing. 13 - 14 - 15 -There are several positive effects that could come from our design. Firstly, we believe our design will make the people with dementia more independent, as they will be able to go on a walk whenever they want. They will be waiting for the caregivers or family members to take them. Secondly, our design will be beneficial for the health of PwD as it will motivate them to move more often and go outside. Physical exercise and movement stimulates the physical and mental health. 10 +E1.5 Time management; the design has also a positive effect on the caregivers and the family member, as it gives them more free time for other tasks and family members. 16 16 ))) 17 17 |(% style="width:113px" %)**Downside**|(% style="width:705px" %)((( 18 18 **The negative effects that could potentially come from our design are:**
