Rise in Demand for Social Robot for Dealing and Improving Loneliness and Well-Being

Published: Jun 2023

The global social robots market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 19.2% during the forecast period. According to Pew Research Center, the US across the globally has the highest percentage of older adults living alone. Also, a report from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) points out that more than one-third of adults aged 45 and older feel lonely, and nearly one-fourth of adults aged 65 and older are socially isolated. Older adults are at increased risk for loneliness and social isolation because they are more likely to face factors such as living alone, the loss of family or friends, chronic illness, and hearing loss. The growing population of old age coupled with associated loneliness is creating favorable market conditions for the growth of social robots. Robotic companions are increasingly used to aid aging humans to live more stimulating lives. The growing population of older adults and the lack of a caregiving workforce is fueling the demand for machines with social and emotional intelligence.

Loneliness among heart failure patients was associated with nearly 4 times increased risk of death, 68% increased risk of hospitalization, and 57% increased risk of emergency department visits.
