Abstract
The escalating costs and complexities of elderly care in Europe necessitate innovative solutions that enhance both the quality of life for seniors and the efficiency of healthcare systems. This paper presents the SilverCompanion project, a novel AI-powered platform designed to address the challenges of loneliness, social isolation, and inadequate care support among older adults. Leveraging advanced AI techniques—including natural language processing, machine learning, and emotion recognition—SilverCompanion provides a personalized, proactive, and empathetic social companion accessible via various devices (smartphones, tablets, smart TVs). This paper details SilverCompanion's architecture, key technological innovations, target markets, anticipated impact on key performance indicators (KPIs), and potential for broader adoption and future development.
