Socially Assistive Robot Support to Aid Recovery After Critical Illness

这个博士将开发机器人飞行员，旨在支持危重疾病后正在康复的患者。他们将与HWU的主管一起工作，并在辅助生活实验室和医院由机器人进行少量的技术飞行员(例如物理治疗练习)。他们还将进行一系列案例研究，从患者和工作人员那里获得定性反馈，以评估SARS服务实施的潜力。这些研究也将在博士学位的第一年和第四年进行，第二年和第三年的重点是机器人飞行员。

This PhD will develop robot pilots that aim to support patients who are rehabilitating after a critical illness. They will work with their supervisor at HWU and pilot in the assistive living lab and in the hospital a small number of technical pilots (e.g. physiotherapy exercise) by the robot. They will also undertake a series of case studies with qualitative feedback from patients and staff to evaluate the potential for service implementation of SARs these studies will also take place in years 1 and 4 of the PhD, with years 2 & 3 focused on the robot pilots.
