The document summarizes the Accompany project, which aimed to develop socially assistive robots to help address the aging population in Europe. The project involved 9 partners across 5 EU countries who worked to [1] develop novel social and empathic human-robot interaction interfaces and techniques, [2] endow the robots with learning and adaptability using a cognitive architecture integrated with smart home systems, and [3] evaluate the acceptability of robots for promoting independent living through studies with older adult users in multiple countries. The project focused on adapting the Care-O-Bot 3 platform and involved repeated user input and testing over its duration to help ensure the systems were safe, interactive, personalized, and easy for older users to understand and use
