TY - JOUR T1 - Intelligenza artificiale in medicina: progetto di una piattaforma mobile inserita in un ambiente intelligente per l'assistenza ai disabili e agli anziani JF - Recenti Progressi in Medicina Y1 - 2004 A1 - Cortés, Ulises A1 - Annicchiarico, Roberta A1 - Campana, Fabio A1 - Vázquez-Salceda, Javier A1 - Urdiales, Cristina A1 - Lola Cañamero A1 - Maite López A1 - Miquel Sànchez-Marrè A1 - Di Vincenzo, Sarah A1 - Carlo Caltagirone AB - Viene presentato un progetto basato sull'integrazione di nuove tecnologie e di Intelligenza artificiale per sviluppare uno strumento – e-tool – indirizzato alle persone disabili ed agli anziani. Una piattaforma mobile inserita all'interno di ambienti intelligenti (strutture di assistenza o abitazioni), controllata e gestita attraverso un'architettura multilivello, viene proposta come supporto sia per i pazienti che per i caregiver al fine di aumentare l'autonomia nella vita quotidiana. A project based on the integration of new technologies and artificial intelligence to develop a device – e-tool – for disabled patients and elderly people is presented. A mobile platform in intelligent environments (skilled-care facilities and home-care), controlled and managed by a multi-level architecture, is proposed to support patients and caregivers to increase self-dependency in activities of daily living.

"e-Tools" stands for Embedded Tools, as we aim to embed intelligent assistive devices in homes and other facilities, creating ambient intelligence environments to give support to patients and caregivers. In particular, we aim to explore the benefits of the concept of situated intelligence to build artefacts that will enhance the autonomy of the target user group in their daily life.

In particular, we aim to explore the benefits of the concept of situated intelligence to build intelligent artefacts that will enhance the autonomy of the target group during their daily life. We present here a multi-level architecture and our preliminary research on navigation schemes for a robotic wheelchair.
