About

L. Breton’s research focuses on assistive robotics for elderly care, particularly the integration of robotic systems in institutional settings to enhance quality of life and autonomy. Their most-cited work, “Study relevance of an assistance robot for the elderly in institution” (2015), with 3 citations, provides foundational insights into the practical relevance and acceptance of robotic assistance in nursing homes and long-term care facilities. This study evaluates user needs, interaction challenges, and the potential for robots to support daily activities and social engagement among older adults. Breton’s contributions lie in bridging human-robot interaction with gerontology, emphasizing user-centered design and real-world applicability. While their citation count is modest, their work is significant for early-stage exploration in a growing field, offering valuable data for subsequent research on aging and technology. Breton’s research underscores the importance of aligning robotic capabilities with the emotional and physical needs of elderly users, paving the way for more adaptive and empathetic assistive technologies.
