Abstract
While frailty and other multi-scale factors have to be correlated during a geriatric assessment, few prototype robots have already been developed in order to measure and provide real-time information, concerning elderly daily activities. Cognitive impairment and alterations on daily functions should be immediate recognized from caregivers, in order to be prevented and probably treated. In this chapter we recognize the necessity of artificial robots during the personal service of the elderly population, not only as a mobile laboratory-geriatrician, but mainly as a socialized digital humanoid able to develop social behavior and activate memories and emotions.
