Abstract:
Challenges in Mechanism Design for robotic systems as medical devices in assistance of medical services can be
considered from several viewpoints in technical, social, and financial ones as a new strongly emerging service field
referring specifically to elderly people. In this keynote main issues are discussed in terms of Innovation aspects
coming from Mechanism Design as specifically addressing the needs and requirements for surgical assistance and
motion assistance of elderly people. The attention is focused on challenging aspects that are related to the mechanical
structure and operation of motion assisting when considering tasks either in rehabilitating or helping elderly people
in motion autonomy. The lecture presents aspects emphasizing the role of mechanism design in developments of
medical devices as based on the fact that the action in performing tasks, either in coordination or not with nursery
operators, is of mechanical nature due to motion and force transmission goals of the motion assistance. The
challenges of mechanism design are presented both in terms of technical solutions and community activity, since
each of them depends, impacts, and generates each other. Examples of past and current solutions are presented form
the experience of the lecturer team to show how a mechanism design can be determinant for successful achievements
in device conception and community developments. In particular, the activities at LARM2 in Rome are outlined on
topics and systems as illustrative example from the direct experience of the speaker.
Keywords: Medical Devices, Robotics and Mechatronics, Mechanism Design, Motion Assistance, Elderly
