An artificial intelligence-based robot companion that keeps older adults active and engaged. ElliQ, whose design intentionally avoids the look and feel of a traditional robot, seamlessly enables older adults to use a vast array of technologies, including video chats, online games and social media to connect with families and friends and overcome the complexity of the digital world. ElliQ is a beautiful tabletop wellness device that incorporates subtle movement and lighting cues and subtle proactive gestures to motivate the user to stay connected and remain independent.
