The system demonstrates the potential to create a programmable interface that enables users with no prior knowledge of robotics to safely program mechanical manipulators with the use of Virtual Reality and the Leap Motion Controller. The system takes full advantage of the Leap Motion to navigate the virtual workspace of the robot that was created through the kinematic properties of the real robot. The implementation of the application was deemed possible by interfacing the Unity Engine with the Barrett WAM robotic arm. Preliminary experimental results show the ability of the system to engage and train appropriately the user in robot programming.","PeriodicalId":140232,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on PErvasive Technologies Related to Assistive Environments","volume":"144 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127572908","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This results in the misunderstanding of challenges and requirements for this community and in the generation of inaccurate assistive traveling solutions (e.g. inaccessible mobile applications). 126 participants were surveyed from the Latin-American region. This survey summarized in 28 on-line questions the most important difficulties which VI population have in their urban traveling; moreover, we asked about how they perceive and use mobile technologies as traveling assistance. We inquired about urban navigation daily life problems and the exploitation of current mobile technologies. Participants established a preference for smartphones instead of dedicated assistive devices, and the availability to be assisted through online social media.","PeriodicalId":140232,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on PErvasive Technologies Related to Assistive Environments","volume":"91 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115669651","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A promising approach to alleviate those effects is harnessing contributions from the human crowd equipped with mobile phones to find available and affordable parking spaces. In this work we propose a crowdsourcing system that aims to find the most suitable parking options for users in a smart city. We have developed ParkMatch, our algorithm deployed in our crowdsourcing system, that unlike existing approaches where a large unfiltered number of parking possibilities is given to the users, it provides the most appropriate set of results suitable to the user needs. Through experimental evaluation in our simulation model, we show the effectiveness and benefits of our approach.","PeriodicalId":140232,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on PErvasive Technologies Related to Assistive Environments","volume":"730 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116067325","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While a person is capable of doing two things in parallel or to pause one ADL and finishing it later a HAR system (HARS) must be capable to remember ADL states and decide which ADL is completed and which might be continued after the current ADL. We address this case by combining a stochastic Markov Model and a psychological memory function to detect parallel and nested ADL. For the evaluation, we use an input dataset and benchmark for comparison, which is publicly available [1]. Our approach outperforms the leading HARS for this benchmark by 2% points while using a more cost effective installation environment. Furthermore we address an unsupervised learning method to train the HARS and explain the algorithm of parallel ADL detection in detail.","PeriodicalId":140232,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on PErvasive Technologies Related to Assistive Environments","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125984992","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To this end, the domain of assistive robotics is continuously researching and developing new robotic solutions for assisted living. One of the research challenges in this scope is the design of appropriate user interfaces for the elderly. This paper discusses the use of a multimodal user interface (UI) development framework for developing elderly-friendly robotic applications in the scope of the EU funded project RAMCIP. The project aims to develop a novel home robotic assistant system for older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and at early stages of Alzheimer Disease (AD). The paper describes the UI framework, its application in RAMCIP and the initial experiences regarding the use of the framework gathered from the preliminary pilot trials of the project with actual patients.","PeriodicalId":140232,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on PErvasive Technologies Related to Assistive Environments","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117018958","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, between flow theory, self-determination theory or Bartle's player types there is much room for speculation regarding the mechanics required for successful gamification, which in turn leads to increased motivation. For our study, we selected a gamified solution for motion training (an exergame) where the playful design elements are extremely simple. The contribution is three-fold: we show best practices from the state of the art, present a study analyzing the effects of simple gamification mechanics on a quantitative and on a qualitative level and discuss strategies for playful design in therapeutic movement games.","PeriodicalId":140232,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on PErvasive Technologies Related to Assistive Environments","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128400967","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The sudden loss of a hand or arm causes the loss of fine, coordinated movements, reduced joint range of motion (ROM), proprioceptive feedback and aesthetic appearance, all which can be improved with the use of a prosthesis and proper training [2]. An effective prosthetic training and rehabilitation regime is important in returning the patient to the highest level of independence and functioning possible. The present study describes a virtual reality (VR) environment system to facilitate an effective training and rehabilitation process to return amputees to the highest level of independence and functioning possible. This was done through the implementation of a real time stick-figure model and a character avatar animating individualized optimal goal motions. This was implemented into the Computer Assisted Rehabilitation Environment (CAREN) system (Motek Medical, Amsterdam, Netherlands) to provide real-time visual feedback to the users while performing specified training and rehabilitating tasks. With the integration of the optimal model visualization, real time visual feedback, and additional CAREN system capabilities, upper extremity training and rehabilitation was shown to be enhanced with the use of virtual reality, through improved movement symmetry, task performance, and functional advances.","PeriodicalId":140232,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on PErvasive Technologies Related to Assistive Environments","volume":"173 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132947523","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the rise in the population of the elderly which is expected to triple by 2050, this robotic system will aims to improve the quality of life for a significant proportion of the population. Physical activities have tremendous benefit to elderly people. Regular exercise helps the elderly by improving their physical fitness, immune system, sleep and stress levels, not to mention the countless health problems it reduces such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, dementia, obesity, joint pains etc. Having a human instructor for each elderly person is not feasible due to the increase in the population of the elderly. The solution to this, therefore, is having a Exercise Trainer Socially Assistive Robot (ETSAR) that engages the elderly in the needed physical activity, coaches, motivates and also assesses their performance.","PeriodicalId":140232,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on PErvasive Technologies Related to Assistive Environments","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131815420","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
