ALMI (Ambient Assisted Living for Long-term Monitoring and Interaction Integration) focuses on the development of adaptation methods enabling assistive-care robots to cope with the uncertainty and disruptions unavoidable in a home environment.
In this case, PAL Robotics platform, TIAGo, will be developed into a broad range of social robotic solutions. TIAGo robot will use both its speech interaction for voice instructions and its object manipulation capabilities to help a user with mild motor and cognitive impairments in the daily activity of preparing a meal. TIAGo robot will be adapted with the necessary manipulation capabilities and assurance evidence for the customized robotic arm, as well as environment monitoring capabilities to build and maintain a knowledge base of objects, etc.
