Abstract |
Research in robotics has moved away from its primary focus on industrial
applications. The New Robotics is a vision that has been developed in past years
by our own university and many other national and international research
instiutions and addresses how increasingly more human-like robots can live
among us and take over tasks where our current society has shortcomings. Elder
care, physical therapy, child education, search and rescue, and general
assistance in daily life situations are some of the examples that will benefit from
the New Robotics in the near future. With these goals in mind, research for the
New Robotics has to embrace a broad interdisciplinary approach, ranging from
traditional mathematical issues of robotics to novel issues in psychology,
neuroscience, and ethics. This paper outlines some of the important research
problems that will need to be resolved to make the New Robotics a reality.
