A Rehabilitation System Configuration Method based on ADL Extended Rehabilitation Environment with a Partner Robot

Abstract

We have studied various kinds of rehabilitation method in a real life space with partner robots for higher brain dysfunction patients. This paper proposes a rehabilitation system configuration method which digitizes a real life space, reconstruct an extended augmented real space. The proposed method can construct step by step their rehabilitation according a real life human situation by coordinating a partner robot for cognitive and physical disabled patients. We focus on activities of daily life (ADL) such as clean-up task and cooking.
