“Robotprof krijgt 1,5 miljoen voor toponderzoek” titelde de kranten afgelopen zomer. Prof. Bram Vanderborght van de Vrije Universiteit Brussel kreeg met zijn onderzoeksgroep de subsidie van de European Research Council toegewezen voor onderzoek naar een nieuwe generatie aandrijvingen voor robots. De groep is ondermeer actief in het domein van de robotprotheses die bijvoorbeeld een been vervangen bij het wandelen, of exoskeletons die om het lichaam zitten om te helpen bij revalidatie en ontwikkelt daarnaast ook sociale robots die bijvoorbeeld kinderen met autisme communicatieve vaardigheden aanleren. Prof. Bram Vanderborght is dan ook de ideale man om het potentieel van robots voor de zorgsector toe te lichten en samen met ons een blik in de roboticatoekomst te werpen.

Increasing life expectancy
Source: HEIDI data tool EU-‐Commission
In 1960 Life expectancy Belgium 69,66 years Av. EU 67,72 years !At age of 65 Belgium 13,52 years Av. EU 13,99 years
In 2008 (50 years later) Life expectancy Belgium 80,10 years Av. EU 78,66 years !At age of 65 Belgium 19,50 years Av. EU 18,46 years
For Belgium this is an increase of 18,2% over 50 years ! 1/5 longer life!!!

Increased need for assistance
Not only functional weakness, but mobility also affected by lower motor skills due to stroke or neurological misfunction
The need for Personal Assistance with everyday activities increases with age. !% of persons needing assistance with everyday activities by age

Increased health cost
Source: EU White Paper “Together for Health: A Strategic Approach for the EU 2008-2013”.
For Flanders by 2050 : • will be confronted much
stronger • its demographic pattern counts
more elderly people • And Healthcare costs are
higher in comparison with other EU countries !
• Today = 11,1% of GDP = 36,8 billion EUR !
• Increase of 25% = 9,2 billion EUR/year
For EU by 2050: !healthcare spending increase with 25%
Health is the greatest wealth!

Disruptive technologies: Advances that will transform life, business, and the global economy
Policy makers and societies need to prepare for future technology. To do this well, they will need a clear understanding of how technology might shape the global economy and society over the coming decades. !Since the Industrial Revolution, technology has had a unique role in powering growth and transforming economies. !The McKinsey Global Institute set out to identify which of these technologies could have a massive economically disruptive impact between now and 2025.

Robot Assisted Therapy: Autism Spectrum Disorders
!‘Don’t underestimate persons with autism, try to understand’
‘Someone with ASDs is really like you, just more extreme’ !
• widespread abnormalities of social interactions and communication
• restricted interests • highly repetitive behavior • pervasive, spectrum manifestation • may vary in level of severity • life-time condition !
specific individualized treatment (recommended 25 hours/week) early and adapted interventions
2/5/14 pag. !21
Why social robots might be useful for ASD treatments?
1) Safety 2) Simplicityàcomplexity 3) Predictability 4) Controlability 5) Interactivity ! High level of motivation and involvement in tasks The robot = social mediator:

Aim of Probo
Aim is not to replace therapists with robots, but to use the strengths of the robots to:
• facilitate and improve the therapy process • mediate the human-child interaction • make the learning process more pleasant & motivating, by developing
attractive RAT games

Conclusion
• Robots are about to enter our daily life • Answer to societal challenges • Create new economic markets
• Robots will be everywhere in different forms and applications, impact bigger than the internet
• But still much research necessary • Have to think about ethical problems as well • Solve in a multidisciplinary research effort
