2. Stakeholders

Stakeholders

Direct stakeholders

• People who have early-stage dementia.
• Direct relative(s) who help with the set-up of NAO.
• Other relatives to get feedback about the cognitive state and affect state of the person with early-stage dementia and to add more context for future interactions.

Indirect stakeholders

• People who have early-stage dementia who have interacted with NAO before and can provide feedback to keep improving the concept.
• Researchers interested in the disease progression who are interested in the data.
• Potential new customers of NAO

Values

• Data must remain private. Where is it stored? What to do with camera and microphone? What if the robot is hacked?
• NAO must properly evaluate how its interactions trigger specific emotions. Is this healthy? Is this ethical?
• NAO must make a person with early-stage dementia feel comfortable and safe. When should NAO decide to interact? 
• When to stop relying on NAO? How to determine this? What does this mean for the future of this person?
