We have developed a simple self-transfer aid robotic system and have conducted psychological evaluation experiments regarding the horizontal movement of the device. The users targeted are people with impaired walking ability who use a wheelchair, however are still able to walk to some extent. With the self-transfer aid robotic system, these users can maneuver themselves independently to and from a...
A new care taking system using a simplified robot face has been developed. Patientspsila health care data can be stored on a personal computer and the robotic system can take various actions depending on the stored data. For example, it can tell a patient when it is time to take his or her medication or alert them if they fail to take their medication at the appropriate time. The robotic system communicates...
Wheelchair bound persons need assistance since there are many steps in roadways or walkways. Therefore, we are proposing a robotic wheelchair which enables a wheelchair bound person to climb over steps without helperpsilas assistance. By using the proposed robotic wheelchair, a user can maintain inverse pendulum control after raising its front wheels (casters). Then, a user can move forward to the...
People bound to wheelchairs require assistance maneuvering over steps encountered when moving about roadways and walkways. We propose an intelligent robotic wheelchair which enables a wheelchair bound person to climb steps without third-party assistance. By using this proposed mechanism, a user may maintain inverse pendulum control while raising the front wheels of the wheelchair, then moving forward...

We have been trying to develop assistive mobile robot system (AMOS). The aim of AMOS is to replace only simple assistive work that picking up, transporting and placing the daily use objects in designated indoor location semi autonomously to reduce the burden of the care taker. AMOS should avoid any kind of collisions in the environment. Therefore, the amount of sensors and functionalities are increased...
