This is Max, the world's first social robot simulating a mild stage of Alzheimer's disease. Max will display numerous symptoms traditionally seen in dementia sufferers, such as repetition, forgetfulness or difficulty in communicating.
Our vision is to use Max as a source for training medical professionals or affected family members, for purposes including interaction and diagnosis training. It is currently difficult to prepare ourselves for interactions with Alzheimer's sufferers, however we hope that the introduction of Max will allow people become accustomed to interacting with sufferers.
Max is a character developed upon the Furhat robot.
