The objective of this planning visit is to explore and identify potential collaborations in robotics with specific emphasis on rehabilitation robotics, humanoids and medical robotics, in the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, and to meet with the researchers, administrators and government officials there to discuss future research collaborations. Rehabilitation and assistive robotics are active research fields that can significantly change the lives of the elderly and individuals with physical disabilities. A U.S. team of 4 faculty members has been assembled. The team is well qualified to address the objective and has expertise in broad robotics areas including rehabilitation robotics, assistive technology, kinematic and dynamic synthesis, smart and intelligent systems, computer vision and sensing, robotic control, and mechanism design. Immediate outcome of this Planning Visit will be a report summarizing the findings and recommendations for potential collaborations. We anticipate proposal submissions (e.g. NSF PIRE) aimed toward long-term goals to continue international collaborations. Our visit is expected to be "ambassador-like" and not just purely academic. It is a ?fact finding" mission to potentially pave the way for increased US-Gulf collaborations in areas of NSF CISE interest. This planning visit is funded jointly by IIS and the Office of International Science and Engineering (OISE).

此次计划访问的目的是探索和确定在阿拉伯联合酋长国，沙特阿拉伯和卡塔尔的机器人技术方面的潜在合作，特别是康复机器人，人形机器人和医疗机器人，并与研究人员，管理人员和政府官员会面，讨论未来的研究合作。 康复和辅助机器人是活跃的研究领域，可以显著改变老年人和身体残疾者的生活。 一个由4名教师组成的美国团队已经成立。 该团队完全有资格实现这一目标，并在广泛的机器人领域拥有专业知识，包括康复机器人，辅助技术，运动学和动力学合成，智能和智能系统，计算机视觉和传感，机器人控制和机械设计。 这次规划访问的直接结果将是一份报告，总结调查结果和潜在合作的建议。 我们预计提交的提案（例如NSF PIRE）旨在实现长期目标，以继续国际合作。我们的访问预计将是“大使式的”，而不仅仅是纯粹的学术访问。 它是一个？事实调查”的使命，以潜在地铺平了道路，增加美国海湾合作委员会在NSF CISE利益领域的合作。这次规划访问由IIS和国际科学与工程办公室（OISE）共同资助。
