3. PROJECT: THE NEED
Muscle injury, poor life style and advancing age require routine physical activity
and physiological rehabilitation. For this. A professional physiotherapists
provide motivation, instruction, monitoring and feedback with their domain
expertise and by being physically present during physio sessions.
However, it would be too costly to have the physiotherapist one-on-one sessions
every day for every amateur sporting injury, every elderly person and
everyone else; even if there were access to enough professionals around the
globe.
Take-home paper exercise programs, possibly with diaries, provide a low-cost
extension to the professional. And kinetic console games can be used to
practice an exercise program with a professional before repeating the
program self-supervised. However, the lack of physically present instructor
removes important monitoring and feedback, and requires significant self
discipline to stay motivated.
To provide the cost-effectiveness of an avatar without losing many of the
benefits of a physically present instructor, we will develop a smart robot that
can be trained by a professional for an individual or a residential home group
daily instruction.
It will spot correct and wrong movements and give corrective and motivational
feedback. And keep the physiotherapist up-to-date with the routine and
progress.

4. PROJECT: THE GOAL
Two applications:
• Repeating 7-day stretching routine (e.g. gentle Yoga) suitable for the
elderly at home and in residential care
• Injury/strain physiotherapy rehabilitation program
Enabled by two systems:
• Physio instruction of routines by Avatar and actual robot “at home”
• Instructor “teaching” body action routines, measurement & feedback
using their own body
Based on the 2012 Demola Innosummer software…
• Bioloid biped robot and Unity 3D “mirror robot” avatar
• Messaging/communication code
…and a combination of java, c#, javascript and human touch

5. SKILLS, EXPERIENCE AND MORE
Ideal team composition to include:
Body pose and 3D modeling – a few body models, many poses and movements
(blender)
Game engine UI, animation, (basic) physics & communication (Unity 3D & C#)
Robot and communications software (java, embedded C, RoboPlus GUI)
Application & user experience design and testing (inc. instructor/instruction
interviews)
Possible extensions:
Including face expressions (with body)
Kinetic body input (MS Kinect or openNI & Asus)
Demola Academy Social Robotics experience:
Most fun and rewarding way to learn (and get credits)
Close support and commitment from client (TAMK)
Possibly the most exciting application area for now and the future
Express your passion for ITC, coding, robots and human interaction

A SOCIAL ROBOT
A social robot is an autonomous robot that interacts and communicates with humans or
other autonomous physical agents by following social behaviors and rules attached to its
role.

Notas do Editor - A social robot is an autonomous robot that interacts and communicates with humans or other autonomous physical agents by following social behaviors and rules attached to its role. - Autonomous robots are robots that can perform desired tasks in unstructured environments without continuous human guidance. - Being social is bound to humans and their society which defines necessary social values, norms and standards. This results in a cultural dependency of social robots since social values, norms and standards differ between cultures.
