Robots & Heros: A diabetes camp in the Netherlands with robot buddy
Show details
T1DM is a chronic disease that sets high demands on self-management in childhood to prevent health problems in short-term (hypo or hyper) and in long-term (e.g., arteriosclerosis) [1-2]. Self-management requires motivation and perseverance.

PAL (Personal Assistant for Healthy Lifestyle) is a 4-year European Horizon 2020 project. It develops and researches a social robot (i.e., the NAO, a humanoid, embodied and interactive agent), its avatar (in an app), an authoring tool for healthcare professionals (PAL Control) and an information system for parents (PAL Inform) (www.pal4u.eu). PAL aims at assisting the child (7-14 years old), health care professional and parent, to jointly perform diabetes management, whereby the child learns to be more self-reliant before adolescence. This is situated in different daily contexts for children with T1DM, such as at home, in hospitals, and at diabetes camps in the Netherlands and Italy.

During a three day diabetes camp organised this autumn in the Netherlands, children (8-12y) interact with the PAL system (robot, avatar and edutainment apps). Also, through creative methods (e.g., theatre, drawing, story telling), they are surveyed on 1) their needs for diabetes self-management support and 2) how the PAL system could further support them in their diabetes .management. Lessons learned during the camp are used to further improve the PAL system for fun, useful and long-term support for T1DM in children.

The project involves research partners TNO (coordinator), DFKI, FCSR, Imperial and Delft University of Technology, next to end-users, the hospitals Gelderse Vallei and Meander, and the Diabetes Association Netherlands and Ital, and SME’s Mixel and Produxi.

Target audience
Researchers, health care professionals, developers (HCI, robotics), parents with children with diabetes

Crowdfunding initiative to support the purchase of a robot for the robot therapy in the Pediatric Institute Ancona
Show details
A crowdfunding initiative that will be last for weeks, started today, to buy a humanoid robot for the Pediatric Institute of Ancona. The funding is coordinated by Fondazione Ospedale Salesi Onlus and by some other partners.

Con questa Onlus abbiamo insieme deciso che il primo progetto a cui parteciperemo è l’acquisto di un “Robot Therapy”.
Un robot che canta, parla e mostra al bambino le procedure mediche in maniera tale da fargli accettare più facilmente la sua situazione.
Di conseguenza cerca di ridurre l’ansia e lo stress che derivano da queste spiacevoli condizioni e soprattutto insegna a questi bambini come imparare ad affrontare quella rabbia che nasce e cresce negli ospedali.

Robot pour être vrai [Spectacle]
Show details
Un spectacle de théâtre mettant en scène des artistes musiciens de la Cie Lubat et des robots autour de l'improvisation robotique et de l'interaction homme / machine.

Robot pour être vrai c’est «une mise en jeu entre les artistes praticiens de la Cie, des ingénieux théoriciens et des nouveaux robots créés par le LaBRI».

Une collision entre les chercheurs en robotique du Labri et les chercheurs d'art de la Cie Lubat qui crée une forme artistique mêlant sur scène : scientifiques, robots et artistes. Cette nouvelle création originale de la Cie questionne la relation qui peut naître entre artistes et robots, notamment par le vecteur de l'improvisation — principe actif du spectacle et de l'exploration de cette interaction homme-machine.

La Cie Lubat a un historique fourni concernant la dialectique entre technologies et improvisation ; en collaboration avec l'Ircam et l'EHESS, elle a contribué au développement de machines musicales à improviser comme Improtek ou encore OMax, notamment dans le cadre d'un projet ANR intitulé Technologies et 3 musiques improvisées.

Le dialogue entre arts et sciences, déjà amorcé vise à s'intensifier au sein de la Cie Lubat, notamment par le lancement d'un nouvel axe improbotique.

L’originalité de cette collaboration réside dans un partage de l’espace scénique entre tous : ingénieurs manipulateurs sont sur scène et improvisent au même titre que les artistes ; tous chercheurs d'art ! Tous invités à expérimenter et à se laisser surprendre par l’acte d’improviser.

Logos Foundation - Robot Orchestra concert
Show details
Imagine a collection of more than sixty virtuoso musical robots that can play nearly any composition. Traditional instruments such as a piano, percussion, brass, woodwind or a  variety of string instruments are combined with unheard sounds produced by newly invented instruments.
 
All these automata are fully acoustic and do neither use electronic sounds nor amplification. The Logos Robot Orchestra only has genuine musical instruments, driven by the magic of 21st-century robotics, in its ranks.
Mechanical instruments have existed for a long time. Our automatons surpass their historical antecedents on various levels: all musical robots have full dynamic control as well as full polyphony. Their capabilities easily exceed those of human players. The microtonal capabilities and extreme precision of the automatons turn them into the perfect tool to explore musical and expressive possibilities.
 
The orchestra does more than just play any style of music, it can create astonishing interactive music in real time. Dancers and musicians use gesture-sensing technologies including sonar and radar systems - developed in-house - to control the sounds directly with their own bodies. The generated music is gesture-controlled. Instead of dancers reacting to music, the music is derived from the movement of the dancers.

Am Finale des diesjährigen Roboterbau‐Wettbewerbs ROBORACE des Studiengangs Technische Kybernetik an der Universität Stuttgart, nehmen sowohl Studierende als auch Oberstufenschüler aus dem Großraum Stuttgart teil. Seit dem Auftakt des ROBORACE Ende Oktober sind Teams von bis zu sechs Schülern oder Studierenden fleißig dabei, jeweils einen Lego‐Roboter zu konstruieren und programmieren, der wie ein Segway auf einer Achse mit zwei parallel angeordneten Rädern das Gleichgewicht halten kann. Die besondere Herausforderung beim ROBORACE‐Wettkampf wird dabei sein, dass dies auf einer gefederten Wippe erfolgt – und das eine Minute lang innerhalb eines vorab definierten Zielbereichs auf der Wippe.
Welches Team die beste Lösung entwickelt hat, wird an zwei Abschluss‐Wettbewerben festgestellt, bei denen Zuschauer herzlich willkommen sind.

Das ROBORACE findet dieses Jahr zum siebzehnten Mal statt und erfreut sich aufs Neue großer Beliebtheit. So nehmen am diesjährigen ROBORACE insgesamt 58 Teams teil, davon 29 Schülerteams.
Die Oberstufenschüler stammen vorwiegend aus Schulen in Stuttgart, aber auch Schüler aus Herrenberg, Heilbronn oder Oberkochen nehmen die weite Reise auf sich, um sich beim ROBORACE mit Studierenden der Universität Stuttgart messen zu können.

ROBOTICS2/ANTEPRIMA (Un festival di Arte e Robotica per la prima volta a Trieste e in Italia
Show details
Un festival di Arte e Robotica per la prima volta a Trieste e in Italia nel 2018 .

Un progetto pilota su una tematica ancora poco esplorata in Italia: l’approccio Arte-Scienza-Tecnologia in relazione alla Robotica. L’obiettivo è quello di diventare un punto di riferimento in Italia e all’estero su queste tematiche.
roiezione del video Arte/Scienza/Tecnologia prodotto dagli artisti del Gruppo78 come promozione del progetto 2018, con riferimento alle eccellenze scientifiche locali nell’ambito di ESOF Trieste capitale Europea della Scienza 2020.

Proiezione immersiva del video “…Of the Totality of Space” di Elisa Zurlo e Lucia Flego, alla ricerca di uno spazio infinito dove il pensiero (e quindi il cervello) si identifica con esso.
I robot di Borut Savski e Stefan Doepner , artisti ricercatori sloveni del collettivo Cirkulacija2 di Lubiana, che estrapolano la tecnologia da banali elettrodomestici reinventandone l’utilizzo e creando nuove installazioni cibernetiche in una fantasmagorica dimensione meccatronica.
Proiezioni video di artisti internazionali come Patrick Tresset, Manolo Cocho, Alex Kiessling, Ken Rinaldo, France Cadet…
“Molecole letterarie” un reading dell’attrice Sara Alzetta, ben appropriato in questo contesto, citando brani di autori famosi relazionati con la scienza.
Bhara Tech , una spettacolare performance dell’artista Kaartik; un’esplorazione scientifica dell’evoluzione umana che si esplica in una danza multidimensionale dove uomo e cosmo s’incontrano tra forme di frequenze sonore e geometrie sacre luminose. La performance si ambienterà nella tridimensionalità virtuale di uno schermo olografico in 3D, impiegato per la prima volta a Trieste.
Una mostra fotografica, con le migliori immagini ricavate dal video promozionale del Gruppo78
