IKTPLUSS-IKT og digital innovasjon

Research Project on RAPHAEL: Robotic Assistance in Personal Hygiene for ActivE Living

Awarded: NOK 0.40 mill.

The ambition with IKTPLUSS is to improve quality and increase the boldness and relevance in Norwegian research related to ICT. This pre-project intends to develop a research proposal in IKT-VEKST which is specially aimed at applying research in public sector. The pre-project aims at developing a research proposal in innovative use of technology in situations that is traditionally carried out by humans. We want to do research on use of robotic shower in situations where people are dependent of assistance when taking their showers. Through literature review and exploring relevant available technology we will address the knowledge gap to establish a research proposal in IKTPLUSS to increase the productivity in the public sector. We also aim at submitting a proposal to the EU Horizon 2020 framework programme for research and innovation.
