1 +In this section we will discuss in which environment NAO will be situated. Additionally, we will summarise NAO's concrete functionalities based on phase 1 to phase 3.
2 +

1 1  **Environment(s)**
2 2  
3 3  __Main subject__
4 4  
5 -* People medically diagnosed with early-stage dementia.
8 +* People medically diagnosed with early-stage dementia (henceforth, PwDs).
6 6  
7 -__How does the design solution help to solve the problems of a subject with early-stage dementia?__
10 +__How does the design solution help to solve the problems of a PwD with early-stage dementia?__
8 8  
9 -* The robot assistant (NAO) will take the role of an assistant.
10 -* NAO can interact with the patient subject continuously throughout the day.
11 -* NAO can for example remind the patient subject of their schedule, and ensure that the subject stay in touch with their relatives. Furthermore, it will be able to interact with the subject through conversation.
12 +* Through human interactions, NAO helps the PwD.
13 +* NAO achieves a natural flow of conversation between itself and the PwD.
14 +* The PwD is accustomed to the presence of NAO and is comfortable to ask questions and have a conversation.
15 +* NAO's primary goal is to be able to answer questions about the PwD's relatives.
16 +* In the extension phase, additional features implemented for more types of conversation and to become more of an assistant.
12 12  
13 13  __In what environment can NAO be implemented?__
14 14  
15 -* In the residence of people with early-stage dementia. More specifically, a room where the patient spend most of their day. A potential idea: is the connection to Sonos speaker system or Google Home to be connected anywhere in the house.
16 -* (% class="box errormessage" %)
17 -(((
18 -//Implement some sort of learning curve of getting used to the robot (? - maybe expand on this?)//
19 -)))
20 -* (% class="box errormessage" %)
21 -(((
22 -//It could be weird to wake up and have a talking robot in your house, so we need to think about this...//
23 -)))
20 +* NAO will be stationed in a room where the PwDs spend most of their day.
21 +* NAO also exists in the 'online' world, in the sense that the guardian can access and update the NAO's encyclopedia.
22 +* In the extension phase, an additional feature could be that the PwD can have conversations with NAO in multiple rooms by connecting to a Google Home and speaker system.
24 24  
25 25  **Activities**
26 26  
27 -//Considering the previous section, we need to specify on which specific times of the day or during specific events in the patient subject's life the robot can be used. It would help to have the robot "always on", but this can cause a lot of privacy issues (if the robot would have a microphone / camera). We should read literature about the setting on when and where NAO can be used. //
26 +__Phase 1__
28 28  
29 -* //When NAO detects that the subject is present in the room, talk to the person.//
30 -* //When the subject is used for NAO to be present, interact when specific questions are asked.//
31 -* //When the subject is used for NAO to be present, NAO can come up with questions or start a basic conversation which could lead to reduce anxiety and stress.//
32 -* //When the subject is visited, NAO can interact in the conversation to reduce anxiety and stress.//
28 +* The guardian of the PwD fills out a form with questions about the their relatives.
29 +* NAO will have its first conversations with the guardian to populate the encyclopedia.
30 +* The guardian will place NAO will be placed in the room where the PwD spends most of their time, with consent of the PwD.
33 33  
32 +__Phase 2__
33 +
34 +* The PwD learns how to activate NAO.
35 +* The PwD accustoms to NAO's presence.
36 +* The PwD asks questions to NAO, similar to questions asked in the set-up form. These questions have been thought of by the project group.
37 +
38 +__Phase 3__
39 +
40 +* The PwD activates NAO.
41 +* The PwD has a natural flow of conversation with NAO and is able to ask questions.
42 +* The guardian updates NAO's encyclopedia through a web-interface.
