- This paper has been published at the highly selective ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction in 2016 (25% acceptance rate in 2016 and 23% on average: https://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=2906831). It has the received the "Best HRI Study" award (http://humanrobotinteraction.org/2016/program/index.html). The work presented is the output of a large-scale EU FP7 project (Ref No 600623) and combines work in robotics, HRI, HCI, health care for older adults, and UX design. Originality: first application of a mobile robot in dementia therapy. Contribution: software system design and long-term evaluation with real therapists and patients in the field.
