The world is experiencing a silver tsunami: rapid population aging. Robots will have a significant impact on society to meet the urgent needs of an aging population. In this research program, we address the challenge of incorporating intelligent robots as long-term assistants to manage and perform multiple assistive activities in human-centred environments. The research will make immediate breakthroughs to overcome the single task restriction of current robots by providing them with the perception and cognition needed to perform complex interactive behaviours to assist multiple non-expert human users in numerous tasks in varying real-world settings.

世界正在经历一场银海啸：人口迅速老龄化。机器人将对社会产生重大影响，以满足人口老龄化的迫切需求。在这项研究计划中，我们解决了将智能机器人作为长期助手在以人为中心的环境中管理和执行多种辅助活动的挑战。该研究将立即取得突破，克服当前机器人的单一任务限制，为它们提供执行复杂交互行为所需的感知和认知，以帮助多个非专家人类用户在不同的现实世界环境中完成众多任务。
