See moreA woman living with her cats in her Barcelona home has a new companion — "Sandi (model: Temi)," a care-support robot. As a pilot project designed for people with early cognitive decline, Barcelona City has deployed 600 robots across private homes and care facilities. The robots remind users about medication, doctor's appointments, and daily routines like waking up and going to bed, and can alert a social worker in emergencies. Insights gained through the project will inform how the city develops its telecare services as part of its broader social welfare provision. (February 2026)
