Eliciting a User's Preferences by the Self-Disclosure of Socially Assistive Robots in Local Households of Older Adults to Facilitate Verbal Human-Robot Interaction.

International journal of environmental research and public health
To realize a society in which older adults can live independently in their homes and familiar environments for as long as possible, their lives can be supported by providing appropriate technology. In this case, a new intervention for older people us...

Evaluating levels of automation with different feedback modes in an assistive robotic table clearing task for eldercare.

Applied ergonomics
This paper focuses on how the autonomy level of an assistive robot that offers support for older adults in a daily task and its feedback affect the interaction. Identifying the level of automation (LOA) that prioritizes older adults' preferences whil...

[The use of robotic and technical systems for early mobilization of intensive care patients: A scoping review].

Pflege
The use of robotic and technical systems for early mobilization of intensive care patients: A scoping review Intensive care patients are often subjected to immobility for too long. However, when they are mobilized early, positive effects on patient...

Restorative rehabilitation robotics to promote function, independence and dignity: users' perspectives on clinical applications.

Journal of medical engineering & technology
People with mobility impairments have reported that improving their walking is one of the most important goals of their rehabilitation. Novel robotic technologies using powered exoskeletons for the lower limb could potentially offer efficient and les...

Development of a Vision-Guided Shared-Control System for Assistive Robotic Manipulators.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Assistive robotic manipulators (ARMs) provide a potential solution to mitigating the difficulties and lost independence associated with manipulation deficits in individuals with upper-limb impairments. However, achieving efficient control of an ARM c...

CyberLimb: a novel robotic prosthesis concept with shared and intuitive control.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Existing assistive technologies attempt to mimic biological functions through advanced mechatronic designs. In some occasions, the information processing demands for such systems require substantial information bandwidth and convoluted co...

Therapeutic use of the humanoid robot, Telenoid, with older adults: A critical interpretive synthesis review.

Assistive technology : the official journal of RESNA
This review sought to critically evaluate the use of the teleoperated humanoid robotic communications device, Telenoid, for therapeutic purposes with older adults, and identify and highlight key considerations for future research and clinical practic...

A survey on the influence of CYBATHLON on the development and acceptance of advanced assistive technologies.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Advanced assistive technologies (AAT) aim to exploit the vast potential of technological developments made in the past decades to improve the quality of life of people with disabilities. Combining complex robotic technologies with the uni...
