Robotic Companions for Older People: A Case Study in the Wild.
Studies in health technology and informatics
Jan 1, 2015
Older people tend to have difficulties using unknown technical devices and are less willing to accept technical shortcomings. Therefore, a robot that is supposed to support older people in managing daily life has to adapt to the users' needs and capa...
Communication Robots for Elderly People and Their Families to Support Their Daily Lives - Case Study of Two Families Living with the Communicaton Robot.
Studies in health technology and informatics
Jan 1, 2015
The aim of this project is to analyze how two families (one is living with a senior with physical disabilities and the other is living with seniors) feel about using the human-type communication robot "Palro" and what they demand for the improvement ...

Studies in health technology and informatics
Jan 1, 2015
In the last twenty years most developed countries face dramatic demographic changes, and predominantly the rapid aging of their population. As the share of elderly people is climbing while the number of care providers is declining, the aging problem ...
Overview and Categorization of Robots Supporting Independent Living of Elderly People: What Activities Do They Support and How Far Have They Developed.
Assistive technology : the official journal of RESNA
Jan 1, 2015
Over the past decades, many robots for the elderly have been developed, supporting different activities of elderly people. A systematic review in four scientific literature databases and a search in article references and European projects was perfor...
Modulation of grasping force in prosthetic hands using neural network-based predictive control.
Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.)
Jan 1, 2015
This chapter describes the implementation of a neural network-based predictive control system for driving a prosthetic hand. Nonlinearities associated with the electromechanical aspects of prosthetic devices present great challenges for precise contr...
Artificial humanoid for the elderly people.
Advances in experimental medicine and biology
Jan 1, 2015
While frailty and other multi-scale factors have to be correlated during a geriatric assessment, few prototype robots have already been developed in order to measure and provide real-time information, concerning elderly daily activities. Cognitive im...
