SOAR (Stanford Older Adult Robotics) aims to improve the lives of older adults and caregivers through robotics.
Our research explores how robotics can encourage older adults in physical movement, time outdoors, social connection, and cognitive health. We find great value in involving local senior communities in what we do.
