Quebec’s increasing aging population will represent a major challenge for our health system. This project proposes creating a human-robot simulator to accelerate the development of technologies for elderly assistance. More precisely, this project focuses on in silico simulation and in vivo validation of collaborative object manipulation between a robot manipulator and a human.
