Newly Developed Robot Arm for Active Services in Intelligent Bed Robot System
- 25
An Intelligent Bed Robot System (IBRS) is proposed to help the elderly and the disabled for their independent life in bed. The IBRS is a special bed equipped with two robot arms and an array of pressure sensors attached onto the mattress in the previous research [1]. The pressure distribution on the mattress is used to estimate the pose of the patient, and an appropriate assistance is provided by the robot arms. Recently, a newly designed robot arm replaced the simple supporting robot arm in order to provide active services. The structure and control mechanism of the new robot arm is presented here.
