“…Having constituted the work team, an interactive working method must be chosen. One approach on which many authors agree is to place the user (human) at the center of the robot design activity, through a wide range of methodologies that are more or less assimilated or have some similarity to codesign [ 194 ], which consists of having users or user representatives actively participate in the definition of technical specifications in various ways, as we shall see later. From this point of view, the problem with the healthcare domain, as pointed out, for example, in [ 195 ], is that it is not so clear who the user is.…”

Cyber-physical or virtual systems or devices that are capable of autonomously interacting with human or non-human agents in real environments are referred to as social robots. The primary areas of application for biomedical technology are nursing homes, hospitals, and private homes for the purpose of providing assistance to the elderly, people with disabilities, children, and medical personnel. This review examines the current state-of-the-art of social robots used in healthcare applications, with a particular emphasis on the technical characteristics and requirements of these different types of systems. Humanoids robots, companion robots, and telepresence robots are the three primary categories of devices that are identified and discussed in this article. The research looks at commercial applications, as well as scientific literature (according to the Scopus Elsevier database), patent analysis (using the Espacenet search engine), and more (searched with Google search engine). A variety of devices are enumerated and categorized, and then our discussion and organization of their respective specifications takes place.
