- Abstract
This study aimed to explore challenges underlying seniors’ adoption of assistive robots. A systematic literature review involved three stages: the first two stages focused on identifying and selecting relevant papers, followed by extracting and analyzing data from selected papers. Analysis revealed several issues which were categorized based on robot type: rehabilitation or socially assistive. Negative influences related to seniors’ concerns about cost, design issues, negative perceptions, safety and privacy concerns; positive influences included ease of use and potential benefits.
