This video features RAMCIP, a new service robot developed to provide proactive and discreet assistance to elderly with Mild Cognitive Impairments (MCI), supporting their daily activities at home. Starting with a thorough analysis of needs and requirements of the target population, the RAMCIP robot was developed as an integrated ensemble of advanced H/W and S/W components, realizing the robot skills of perception, cognition, safe navigation, grasping, manipulation, and human-robot communication, ample to operate in real, rather challenging domestic environments.The RAMCIP use-cases include proactive assistance provision to user's cooking, eating and medication activities, through discreet user monitoring and robot interventions by reminders and robotic manipulations., RAMCIP can bring the medicine, recognize fallen objects and electric appliance that has been forgotten turned on. It also recognizes the user walking in low-light conditions and turns on the light, as well as detects cases of emergency such as a fall. The robot provides also the user with cognitive training games and stimulates the user to contact with relatives through video-calls.Pilot trials of the RAMCIP robot have been performed in real homes of more than ten different users, in Barcelona, Spain; the video at hand exhibits the robot performing the target use cases. |
