I will examine how these devices can enhance emotional wellbeing, autonomy, and social participation, as well as their potential to complement the work of healthcare and care professionals. I will also discuss the ethical, technical, and methodological challenges that remain, including user acceptance. In particular, I will highlight how the technological characteristics of robots —such as their interactive capabilities, adaptability, intuitive design, and simulated emotional responsiveness— are essential for fostering acceptance and ensuring their effectiveness during therapeutic processes. Finally, I will discuss results from recent studies and outline opportunities for interdisciplinary approaches that support the safe, meaningful integration of social robots into care environments.Arrivals from 11:45 am for a 12:00 noon start.
