2011 - The 1st Workshop on "Robotics in Assistive Environments"
Topics/Call fo Papers
The 1st Workshop on
"Robotics in Assistive Environments"
Workshop Theme and Goals
This workshop will explore the paradigm shift provided by the use of robots in assistive environments (AE). Due to the fact that robots can interact with the environment and redeploy their sensing and end-effector assets, they can accomplish much more complex tasks than stationary sensors. Just like in manufacturing, where robots play an important role in automation, the use of robotics in AE can provide advantages such as flexibility, reconfigurability, and remote assistance. Topics for the workshop will include planning and control algorithms, bio-inspired mechanical robot designs, sensor fusion and distributed networking strategies for AE robots. We seek high quality papers describing technologies and applications ranging from more conventional uses of service robots in the home (such as care-takers and aids to motor impaired patients), to rehabilitation robots for in-hospital care, and to emerging conversational robots for social interaction and medical treatment evaluation.
Topics of Interest
We are interested in original papers including but not limited to:
Human Robot Interaction (HRI) using distance sensing
Physical HRI
New sensors for HRI
Human metrology by robots
Real-time HRI
Assistive and Service robotics
Medical Rehabilitation robotics
Social robotics
Target-Tracking and Localization
Active Sensing and Navigation
Single- and Multi-Robot Localization
Data fusion from heterogeneous sensors
Multi-sensor calibration
