"Carebase" workshop


Our Master of Design graduate Miss Kelly Tang and her supervisor Dr Newman Lau conducted a workshop with the theme of “Understanding Dementia” to exhibit various equipment, such as accompany robots, for supporting the elders suffered from dementia. During the workshop, Kelly’s design “Carebase”, an owl shaped intelligent companion robot was shown.

 

The robot and other of its kind being exhibited offer patients improved care, emotional support and communication. We are thrilled to see more innovative ways to support the different needs of patients in their daily lives.
