| Enhancing a beam+ Telepresence Robot for Remote Home Care ApplicationsThe aging population is putting increasing pressure on health care systems in many developed countries, and maintaining quality of care while controlling costs becomes a major issue that needs to be addressed. With platforms now available at 2,000 $US, telepresence robots is one potential solution to provide remote care services to elders living in their homes. However, they need improved capabilities to make them more than simple “Skype on wheels” devices. To make telepresence robots suitable for remote home care applications, they must offer enhanced and robust functionalities such as autonomous navigation, artificial audition and vital sign monitoring. Therefore, we designed such capabilities on a beam+ platform, and integrated them into a robot control architecture, demonstrating the feasibility of adding these capabilities on a commercial robot.3.1 VIGIL University of Sherbrooke, Université de Sherbrooke | Scientific Excellence - Advancing Knowledge | 2017-06-21 | | 3.1 VIGIL |
| WP3 Discovery Day - Cyberwork Robotics DemoWe present a prototype of an autonomous wheelchair using only low-cost sensors such as a Kinect v2 and wheel encoders, without the need of an expensive LiDAR. The demonstration consists of showing the visual-based mapping, localization, planning and 3D obstacles avoidance capabilities of the system. Beside seeing the actual wheelchair moving, the attendees will be also able to see what the wheelchair is sensing in real-time. The framework is based on ROS compliant Open Source projects, with everything integrated on a small onboard computer. The system is designed to be independent of the hardware, so transferable to any powered wheelchair.3.1 VIGIL University of Sherbrooke, Université de Sherbrooke | KTEE - Knowledge Mobilization | 2016-10-17 | | 3.1 VIGIL |
| WP3 Discovery Day - AGE-WELL WP3.1 Demo AbstractThe demonstration involves a simple remote patient monitoring scenario using a beam+ robot platform with added computational and sensory capabilities (i.e., a kinect sensor and a 8-microphone array). Basic teleoperation and 3D simultaneous localization and mapping capabilities will allow to plan a trajectory and guide the robot to specific locations. Using bluetooth medical devices, vital signs are going to be taken by the person and displayed on the robot’s user interface. The robot will change its orientation in the person’s direction when speaking. The implementation is performed using ROS coupled with a robot control architecture, used as an integration framework.

| Minute Madness ‘Elevator Pitch’The goal is to demonstrate how mobile assistive robots can be used as a telepresence and an assistant for seniors and caregivers by providing services such as virtual visits for remote consultations, cognitive and scheduling assistance for common tasks. Users’ needs and requirements are obtained through focus groups, questionnaires and with videos to illustrate what can be accomplished with robotics technologies. Assistive robots are being developed with the integration of key interaction and intelligent capabilities such as 3D navigation and mapping, sound source localization and speech recognition, vital signs monitoring, plan recognition, object and person detection, robot emotions and assistive behaviors.3.1 VIGIL | Scientific Excellence - Leadership | 2016-10-19 | Sébastien Laniel | 3.1 VIGIL |
| Évaluation de l’écosystème d’innovation : Défis d’implantation d’un robot mobile d’assistance et de téléprésence en santéAGE-WELL (Aging Gracefully across environnements using technology to support Wellness, Engagement and Long Life) fait partie du Réseau des Centres d’Excellence du Canada et se concentre sur le bien-être des personnes âgées dans leur vie quotidienne. Depuis un an, des recherches sont réalisées par des chercheurs de différentes disciplines quant aux améliorations qu’il est possible d’apporter dans l’avenir avec des avancées technologiques tel que le robot mobile de téléprésence et d’assistance en santé. Ce type de robot vise à répondre aux besoins des personnes âgées qui représenteront une majorité dans la démographie mondiale constituant une problématique de taille pour les soins et la prise en charge, l’autonomie, le maintien à domicile et le bien-être des aînés. L’objectif principal est d’établir un plan de valorisation du robot comme objet d’innovation sociale, ce qui implique entre autres, cerner les obstacles et les facilitateurs à son intégration en tenant compte de ses différents usages et, des acteurs impliqués dans l’écosystème d’innovation et de l’acceptabilité sociale. Cette communication vise à exposer certains critères qui se dégagent de notre étude qualitative (entrevues semi-dirigées, analyse transversale, comparative et globales) afin de développer des stratégies d’innovations reliées à l’approche managériale à adopter pour optimiser l’intégration efficiente et éthiquement responsable du robot mobile. 3.1 VIGIL Université de Sherbrooke | Scientific Excellence - Advancing Knowledge | 2017-02-16 | | 3.1 VIGIL |
