“…Martínez et al. [ 22 ] presented a device designed to assist elderly people in their homes, which in concept is a multi-agent system, meaning it can be adapted to work in smart homes with IoT. The main idea is to create a desk that can maintain a record and manage the administration of the user’s medications, besides including three other agents with sensors to monitor the interaction with the assistant.…”

A voice-controlled smart home system based on conversational agents can address the specific needs of older people, proactively providing support, compensating for cognitive decline, and coping with solitude, among other features. In particular, Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) platforms provide considerable support for complex adaptive systems that are naturally distributed and situated in dynamic environments, such as Ambient intelligence (AmI) applications. Such autonomous intelligent agents are capable of independent reasoning and joint analysis of complex situations to support high-level interaction with humans, besides providing typical characteristics of MAS, such as cooperation and coordinated action. In this context, we developed an approach using a MAS previously evaluated for visually impaired users, where most of the system’s functionalities are also helpful for the elderly. Our methodology is based on the four steps of the interactive design process. As a result, we determined that our approach has elements that allow for natural interaction with users, and we identified and discussed improvements and new features for future work. We believe that our findings can point to directions for building AmI systems that are capable of more natural interaction with users.

Los robots sociales tienen el potencial de ayudar a personas con problemas de movilidad y coordinación, especialmente si son mayores. Para ello, se pueden pueden apoyar en ejercicios de estimulación física mediante la gamificación de juegos diseñados para este propósito. En este trabajo, presentamos ``Mini-Bird'', un juego de estimulación implementado siguiendo un paradigma de robot multiagente. El sistema propuesto se ha integrado en la arquitectura de software del robot Mini acompañado de un agente de juegos. El robot social Mini guía la actividad para promover la actividad física del usuario. El agente de juegos es el encargado de rastrear los movimientos de las manos del usuario mediante un detector de esqueletos que permite controlar el juego. Se facilita varias métricas para la evaluación de la estimulación física y la coordinación ojo-mano. La incorporación de elementos de gamificación mejora la participación del usuario y el desarrollo de habilidades. Las pruebas preliminares muestran un gran potencial para promover la actividad física entre los mayores.
