(2019) : A Layered Architecture for Socially Assistive Robotics as a Service: 2019 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man and Cybernetics (SMC): 2019 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man and Cybernetics (SMC): Bari, Italy: 10/6/2019 - 10/9/2019: [Piscataway, NJ]: IEEE, S. 352-357
Abstract: Socially assistive robotics technology is expected to play a crucial role in supporting home patients with neurological disorders. Nevertheless, the adoption of such technology in real home environments is still far to be reached since it presents several challenges mainly related to its acceptance in the everyday life. In this domain, a high degree of personalization is required usually obtained by a customization of a robotic system with respect to specific assistive tasks. On the contrary, socially assistive robots are usually general-purpose platforms requiring a considerable effort for customization. In this work, to limit static and costly customization of robotic systems, a service-oriented approach is adopted to represent and manage assistive tasks to be performed by a social robotic system, allowing to decouple a given functionality from its concrete implementation that can be provided by different devices and with different execution modalities. The service-oriented approach for robotics applications, known as Robot-as-a-Service, is becoming attractive for decoupling the robot hardware from the functionalities it provides.

(2014) : Aspects of Socially Assistive Robots Design for Dementia Care: 2014 IEEE 27th International Symposium on Computer-Based Medical Systems: New York, NY: IEEE, S. 396-400
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1109/CBMS.2014.16 Abstract: Increasing prevalence of dementia matched with higher demand on healthcare services poses a challenge to society. The use of innovative technologies such as robotics has been identified as one of the solutions to this predicament. The design of Socially Assistive Robots (SAR) is a multidisciplinary field that needs to incorporate the diverse requirements of people with dementia and their carers. This paper attempts to identify important considerations for the successful design of SARs and to categorize them. A taxonomy of SAR’s features is proposed, best practice design approaches, technology acceptance and ethical issues are examined. Recommendations for future areas of research are outlined.
