The industrialized part of the world is experiencing significant aging and at the same time there is access to financial resources that allow people to make choices as to how they want to live. Quality of life is typically characterized by independence and autonomy. Modern day robots can facilitate such autonomy and assistance. A major challenge is, however, in the design of systems that are accessible to the average citizen.
Over the last decade significant growth has been reported for consumer robot use. The
systems that are in use today can in general characterized as targeted with well specified applications and limited interaction with users. An obvious design choice is between targeted and more general purpose systems. Clearly from a research perspective it is of interest to build more general systems. This requires competencies for interpretation of the environment and people in it and design of facilities for intelligent interaction with users. In this presentation we will present methods for navigation and manipulation of objects in the environment and new progress on design of human robot interfaces to enable people to use such systems through a combination of spatial modelling, spoken dialog systems and interpretation of human gestures. Finally, we will point to how such systems are starting to be used in real world appliances and assistive devices.

Henrik I Christensen is the KUKA Chair of Robotics and the Director of Robotics and
Intelligent Machines at Georgia Institute of Technology. Dr. Christensen was trained in Denmark where he received M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees from Aalborg University. He has subsequently held positions at Aalborg University - Denmark, University of Pennsylvania - USA, Swedish Royal Institute of Technology - Sweden before joining Georgia tech.
Dr. Christensen does research on robotics and machine perception with an emphasis on
system modeling and an engineering. The research has covered computer vision, artificial
Intelligence and robotics with applications across dynamic scene analysis, mobile navigation/mapping, and manipulation and grasping. He has published more than 250 contributions in conferences and journals. He is active the editorial board of many of the prestigious journals in computer vision and robotics incl. IJVC, IJRR, Service Robotics, RAS. He is a consultant to companies and government agencies on three different continents.
