Abstract

The lack of care for an elderly population is a challenge for our society. Robotics and other cutting-edge technology may help in this situation. Adapting these technologies for use in health care is critical if they are to be widely adopted and utilised in daily life. To help caregivers during the transfer of a patient simulator to the lateral position, a robot manipulator was positioned near a nursing bed and two modalities of contact with the robot were compared and evaluated in this case study. Proactive and continual assistance behaviours are distinguished. As opposed to the continuous technique, the proactive method only begins when it is visually determined that a patient should be pushed into the lateral position utilising a Wizard of Oz experiment setting. Overall, the research found that a robot's constant assistance behaviour was chosen by the participants.
