Abstract
Sponsor
This research was supported in part by a grant from the National Institutes of Health (National Institute on Aging) Grant P01 AG17211 under the auspices of the Center for Research and Education on Aging and Technology Enhancement (CREATE; www.create-center.org). The report was inspired by our collaboration with Willow Garage (www.willowgarage.com) who selected the Georgia Institute of Technology as a beta PR2 site for research (www.willowgarage.com/blog/2010/06/07/spotlight-georgia-tech).
This project is a collaborative research effort on human-robot interaction between the Human Factors and Aging Laboratory (Co-Directors Wendy A. Rogers and Arthur D. Fisk; www.hfaging.org) and the Healthcare Robotics Laboratory (Director: Charles C. Kemp; www.healthcare-robotics.com). Many thanks to the researchers in both laboratories for their contributions.
