Robot, please get me a cup of juice

For future ageing societies, robots will be good companions to help the aged live independently for longer. Our demo showcases state-of-the-art research from the Centre for Robotics Research, King’s College London, demonstrating how robots can assist with daily tasks such as handing over a cup of juice. Learn about how robots see, feel and interact with the world, make decisions in physical interaction with humans, the role of sensors in human-robot interaction, and how they learn to master these essential skills.
