An exploratory study on the perception of social robots among older people in Brazil, where technological access is limited, showed that most participants were receptive to the idea of having a social robot assist them in activities or even act as a companion occasionally. However, the limitation of the robot not being able to communicate in Portuguese was noted.
Social robots have been seen as a potential tool to assist older people in various activities. However, little is known on the perception of older people about this type of technology in a country like Brazil, where technological access is limited. Before promoting studies aimed at using social robots for this target audience, it is necessary to understand how they will receive these devices. This paper reports an exploratory study that evaluated the perception of older people, at a university open for the elderly in Brazil, about a social robot. The results showed that, although seen as a great novelty, most participants were quite receptive to the idea of having a social robot helping them in some activities or even being an occasional companion. As a limitation, the robot is not prepared to communicate in Portuguese.
