SANDRo (Semi Autonomous Night and Day Robot) is an innovative robot that provides assistive services to people with difficulties in Activities of Daily Living (ADL). In this project, the ambition is to deploy the proposed solution in large scale real-life trials and demonstrate the required safety, robustness and stability. Instead of aiming for full autonomy, which usually depends on immature technologies, a semi-autonomous system will be deployed, when assistance is required, the operator controls the robot via a remote command center (Cockpit) using haptic control. The project aims to conduct trials in several care centers and test facilities across Europe. SANDRo is based on an integration of breakthrough software with existing technologies, to be launched into a new market. PAL Robotics’ TIAGo will take part in the project, to be deployed as the service robot platform.
Robot assistance, teleoperation and telepresence in project SANDRo
Robotic assistance with teleoperation, telepresence, and remote control through Project SANDRO Robot assistants are able to help users in their daily lives, and teleoperation and telepresence are just some of the capabilities that make this possible. Teleoperation and telepresence help
