□ The need for access to high-tech technologies based on the 4th industrial revolution, such as robot technology, is growing for people and caregivers who need care.
○ In particular, with the rapid aging of the population, from the perspective of “technology-based care”, care using robot technology is being attempted in Europe, Japan, and the United States.
□ At the National Rehabilitation Center, based on caring robot technology, in order to reduce the burden of care, such as creating a foundation for the spread of life-closed care robots and improving the care environment, the National Rehabilitation Center conducts research and development that considers service model development for caring robots, intermediary research, and system linkage. have.
□ This symposium consists of 4 sessions and panel discussions, starting with 'Caring Robot Intermediation Research and Service Model Development Project', Director Song Won-kyung, Rehabilitation Assistive Technology Research Division, National Rehabilitation Center. Care-related experts are planning to make announcements.
○ In the first session, the current status of the project group policy implementation was discussed by Professor Lee Wan-jeong of Korea University on the 'Caring Robot Service Model' and Professor Gwi-ryeong Hong of Hanyang University on 'The Level of Physical Function and Disability Factors Related to the Use of Care Equipment for the Severely Disabled and the Elderly with Mobility Disorders' It will be presented on the topic of
○ In the second session, care burden analysis and social value of caring robots are discussed.
