System Design for Coordinated Multi-Robot Assistance Deployment in Smart Spaces

International audienceIn this work, we set the bases of the integration of ambient intelligence (AmI) with mobile robot teams (MRT), aiming to enhance ambient assisted living services addressing a variety of tasks. We argue that people with reduced mobility can benefit from a synergy between AmI and MRT in various aspects. Towards this direction, we identify principal function-alities such an integrated system should provide in connection to relevant previous works and the way by which synergy could be accomplished, from low-level behavioural to higher-level task planning of a multi-layered system architecture
