Nowadays, the percentage of elderly people is increasing, especially in developed countries. Technological products can be used to propel a cohesive and inclusive inter-generational society, although they should be adapted to satisfy the needs and preferences of elderly people. In this paper, we present 3D virtual agents as a promising system to improve the autonomy and Quality of Life (QoL) of elderly people, as they are technological systems that look and act like a person, thanks to the use of speech recognition and voice communication, and they can facilitate users’ everyday life. In this work, the connection between a virtual agent with a SQL database engine allows our agent to be connected to the health center, thus being able to assist users in their daily intake of medication.
