Smart environments offer valuable technologies for activity monitoring and health assessment. Here, we describe an integration of robots into smart environments to provide more interactive support of individuals with functional limitations. RAS, our Robot Activity Support system, partners smart environment sensing, object detection and mapping, and robot interaction to detect and assist with activity errors that may occur in everyday settings. We describe the components of the RAS system and demonstrate its use in a smart home testbed. To evaluate the usability of RAS, we also collected and analyzed feedback from participants who received assistance from RAS in a smart home setting as they performed routine activities.

机器人支持智能家居环境中的日常活动

智能环境为活动监控和健康评估提供了有价值的技术。在这里，我们描述了将机器人集成到智能环境中，以便为具有功能限制的个人提供更多的交互式支持。RAS，我们的机器人活动支持系统，与智能环境传感、物体检测和映射以及机器人交互合作，以检测和协助解决日常环境中可能发生的活动错误。我们描述了 RAS 系统的组件并演示了其在智能家居测试台中的使用。为了评估 RAS 的可用性，我们还收集并分析了参与者的反馈，这些参与者在智能家居环境中执行日常活动时接受了 RAS 的帮助。
