Abstract

The main objective of the EMPATHIC project has been the design and development of a virtual coach to engage the healthy-senior user and to enhance well-being through awareness of personal status. The EMPATHIC approach addresses this objective through multimodal interactions supported by the GROW coaching model. The paper summarizes the main components of the EMPATHIC Virtual Coach (EMPATHIC-VC) and introduces a demonstration of the coaching sessions in selected scenarios.
