| 6th December 2024. In person PSC meeting mainly devoted to evaluate live the first prototype of the scenarios and of the platform and finalize it for the pilot. | 12nd July 2024. On line PSC meeting mainly devoted on how to evaluate the pilot and which intruments to use. |
| 23rd May 2014. Meeting at Sacra Famiglia facility to refine Nao behaviors and outline the pilot and it needs. | 23rd February 2024. AIRCA consortium got together at University of Florence for a PSC meeting. The technical and funciontal analysis carried so far has allowed to define technical development that can be feasible effective and useful to the project. Now it is time for hardworking for realizing the scenarios sketched! |
| 9th February 2024 and 26th February 2024. AIRCA consortium had very effective meetings at rehabilitation 88center "Dosso Verde" with Nao robot, where an advanced draft of scenarios has been sketched. Moreover, the Nao robot was shown to children who showed very interesting: one of them even kissed the robot in front! |
