Abstract:

The SIRIUS theme of the LISSI Lab. is conducting  research mainly in the health field based technologies. This theme of  multi-disciplinary research is a continuation of the work developed in the last  20 years and focused around a single scope: robots and systems ambient  assistance. Specifically, the group is working on the development, modeling and  control systems of ambient intelligent systems and robotics for assistance to  dependents (elderly/patients). Within the group, two forms of assistance with  daily activities are studied: physical assistance (assistance to mobility or  movement) through the concept of sensors and wearable robots, and cognitive  assistance through robotic systems network (intelligent agents, embodied agents  and robotic companions) around the concepts of ubiquitous robotics and ambient  intelligence. For both forms, observations of high level functions are required  for the recognition of the user's context (its intention, activities, location,  etc.). These functions are then used to adapt the assistance functions. The work  within the SIRIUS group fall into three main themes: Activity recognition,  Physical robotics assistance, Cognitive robotic  assistance.
