For developing a robot of nursing care, this team develops, first, the model of the nursing motion of human including the measurement and analyzing of the nursing motion of human. Next, we develop the motion planning of robots including the transformation of the human motion to robotic motion and the evaluation of the transformed motion in dynamics and ergonomics.

Research Subjects

  • Development of model for nursing motion of human
  • Human model based robot nursing motion control
  • Estimation of care-receiver's position with tactile sensor
  • Motion analysis of a mother's embracing and rocking a baby
