Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Robotics in rehabilitation provide considerable opportunities to improve the quality of life for physically disabled people. However, practical results limited, mainly due to the need for developing new robotics concepts where people are where they are working in separeted areas. This paper reveals some of the developments needed and presents two projects currently underway at Lund University. The first one is concerned with end-effector design for a robotic workstation for officebased tasks, while the second is concerned with a mobile robotic system for use in medical an chemical laboratories by disabled people. Both projects show promising results. There is also a need for further research in developing new robotic systems for use in rehabilitation with new mechanical features, as well as programming and control suitable for any user.

- We present the robot developed within the Hobbit project, a socially assistive service robot aiming at the challenge of enabling prolonged independent living of elderly people in their own homes. We present the second prototype (Hobbit PT2) in terms of hardware and functionality improvements following first user studies. Our main contribution lies within the description of all components developed within the Hobbit project, leading to autonomous operation of 371 days during field trials in Austria, Greece, and Sweden. In these field trials, we studied how 18 elderly users (aged 75 years and older) lived with the autonomously interacting service robot over multiple weeks. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time a multifunctional, low-cost service robot equipped with a manipulator was studied and evaluated for several weeks under real-world conditions. We show that Hobbit’s adaptive approach towards the user increasingly eased the interaction between the users and Hobbit. We provide lessons learned regarding the need for adaptive behavior coordination, support during emergency situations, and clear communication of robotic actions and their consequences for fellow researchers who are developing an autonomous, low-cost service robot designed to interact with their users in domestic contexts. Our trials show the necessity to move out into actual user homes, as only there can we encounter issues such as misinterpretation of actions during unscripted human-robot interaction.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this article, we present results obtained from field trials with the Hobbit robotic platform, an assistive, social service robot aiming at enabling prolonged independent living of older adults in their own homes. Our main contribution lies within the detailed results on perceived safety, usability, and acceptance from field trials with autonomous robots in real homes of older users. In these field trials, we studied how 16 older adults (75 plus) lived with autonomously interacting service robots over multiple weeks. Robots have been employed for periods of months previously in home environments for older people, and some have been tested with manipulation abilities, but this is the first time a study has tested a robot in private homes that provided the combination of manipulation abilities, autonomous navigation, and nonscheduled interaction for an extended period of time. This article aims to explore how older adults interact with such a robot in their private homes. Our results show that all users interacted with Hobbit daily, rated most functions as well working, and reported that they believe that Hobbit will be part of future elderly care. We show that Hobbit's adaptive behavior approach towards the user increasingly eased the interaction between the users and the robot. Our trials reveal the necessity to move into actual users' homes, as only there, we encounter real-world challenges and demonstrate issues such as misinterpretation of actions during non-scripted human-robot interaction.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Persons with stress-related disorders, mental disorders and neuropsychiatric disabilities are in particular vulnerable to cognitive challenges at the workplace. The barriers faced by persons with communicative, social and cognitive disabilities are most often invisible to persons in the environment. The objective of the study presented in this paper is to develop and test a tool that increases awareness by inviting persons without disabilities to experience how cognitive barriers can look like in the workplace. Three 360-degree films were developed iteratively in close collaboration with users. Each film has one part highlighting difficulties and one part highlighting solutions. The films were evaluated with employers, employment experts, special support persons, HR staff and students. The results show that the films were realistic and useful for both supporting employment and for general awareness and insight.

A model for an inclusive healthcare information system
- 2011
-
Ingår i: Include 2011 proceedings. - 9781907342295
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Healthcare organisations such as hospitals communicate both public and personal information to citizens. Accessible websites are suited for public information, but personal information (e.g. medical appointment notices) is still sent out by ordinary post in the form of text on a paper. Sometimes a person has to ask repeatedly for accessible information and is forced to adapt to the information system, rather than the other way around. This paper presents a model for adapting information automatically to each individual’s preferences and a list of such preferences resulting from interviews with persons with disabilities. The model facilitates an innovative process where a healthcare organisation and citizens work together in four steps: 1) A person’s information preferences are stored in a database in the hospital’s improved information system and can be updated at any time. 2) When the caregiver sends out information, a notification module retrieves the personal preferences from the database and adapts the information. 3) The person receives individualised information. 4) Preferences stored by citizens, but not yet implemented, can be used for further development of the inclusive information system. A prototype web form was then developed and evaluated by people from disability and elderly organisations.

Capturing better data: The potential for better insight into user's requirements through iterative prototyping
- 1995
-
Ingår i: UserTalk. ; :6, s. 4-5
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article aims at introducing to a wider circle a complementary research approach in user oriented work. Its most fundamental part is the use of technology as a tool for capturing the needs, wishes and dreams of a user. The incitement for us to start developing this method was an experience based, serious, questioning of conventional methods such as interviews, questionnaires, etc, and their capability of revealing user requirements without the users and the researchers being familiar with the technology in question. Mental models developed through iterative prototyping is a key factor in our approach. We consider it necessary to focus on the mental models of the user as well as of the researcher, and on the interference between these models. Unless they produce similar predictions and observable results, their value is limited.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Parents often have a busy time sorting out their life puzzles, including getting information about their children's activities in school. More and more communication between teachers and parents take place via digital school systems. It can be hard for parents to find the information they are looking for and the teacher decides when information is sent and what communication method to use. All parents, but especially parents with disabilities, might have individual preferences on how to receive information and how to adapt meetings at school. In this paper we present a project where we involved parents and teachers in focus groups, an idea workshop and iterative user trials of a digital prototype. The goal was to elicit parents' individual requirements for an inclusive digital school system, where they can store their individual preferences about how and when to receive information from school and what requirements they have on meetings at school. Preliminary results show that we managed to create open and focused discussions among parents and teachers. The parents reacted very positively on an onboarding page with the possibility to quickly and easily enter preferences after their first log in, but more work needs to be done on how preferences are categorized on the onboarding page. Finally, parents need to get clear feedback from teachers and school when they have entered or updated preferences, so they can trust that their preferences will be met.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The TINEL Project is running a series of camps for staff at higher education institution to support them in developing inclusive eLearning. The first camp was conducted face-to-face, but the coronavirus pandemic meant that the second camp was conducted online. This created a case study in inclusive eLearning in itself and allowed us to experience and reflect on the challenges and opportunities of inclusive online teaching and learning. This paper presents the structure and content of the two camps, our reflections on moving from a face-to-face to an online situation and our elaboration how the UDL principles apply to eLearning to create Universal Design for eLearning (UDeL). We found that because we already had a syllabus for the camp prepared, transferring it to an online camp did not present a great number of challenges. Some aspects of the online situation were actually advantageous (e.g. presenting all materials digitally and making them fully accessible) while others were difficult to overcome (e.g. engaging all participants in online activities and discussions). We provide a set of recommendations of how to implement the three principles of UDL in eLearning situations.

RAID - a Robotic Workstation for the Disabled
- 1993
-
Ingår i: Proceedings of the 2nd European Conference on the Advancement of Rehabilitation Technology (ECART 2).
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The aim of the RAID project (Robot for Assisting the Integration of the Disabled) is to develop and demonstrate a prototype robotic workstation for use by disabled people. The RAID project is part of the European Community TIDE program (Technology for the socio-economic Integration of disabled and Elderly people). The robotized system is intended primarily for vocational use in an office environment. The selected application for the demonstration in March 1993 is CAD (Computer Aided Design), which is an application full of handling tasks for the robot. If the robot is capable of doing all these tasks satisfactory, a number of other applications can be extracted form the CAD application. A key feature of RAID is the emphasis on user requirements.

Technical results from Manus user trials
- 1999

Ingår i: ICORR '99: International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics, Stanford, CA, USA.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Eight users have tried the Manus arm at the Department of Rehabilitation at Lund University Hospital. The user trials were carried out in close co-operation with Certec at Lund University. After the trials one of the users, Ms Eva Gerdé, decided to buy a Manus arm, and she received her Manus arm in November 1998. The main objective of the user trials was to find out how robot technology could support the early rehabilitation of people with spinal cord injuries. Another objective was to increase the knowledge of user needs and what make robots worth using. This paper presents technical comments received during the user trials and from Ms Eva Gerdé. The results could be used for improvements to the Manus arm, to other wheelchair-mounted manipulators and to robots in general. One of the most commented issues is the physical size of the Manus arm, preventing the user from driving the wheelchair close to a table or maneuvering the wheelchair through narrow passages. Two of the users immediately stated that it was awkward to have the Manus arm mounted on the left side of the wheelchair, since they are right-handed.

The Useworthiness of Robots for People with Physical Disabilities
- 1999
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This thesis deals with robotics and the new possibilities it offers people with physical disabilities. I focus on the user and the use of the technology and, in particular, on what makes robotic aids worth using - useworthiness as distinguished from usability. User experience of the wheelchair-mounted Manus manipulator shows that robotic arms must meet technical requirements in terms of acceleration, speed, and pattern of movement. Easy horizontal and vertical adjustment of the end-effector is another requirement which must be met to enable a user to carry out the most common movements faster with less concentration. Experience of the useworthiness of robots was first obtained through the development of page-turning end-effectors for the RAID workstation. The principles of separating pages and the page-turning movements are analyzed and described in this thesis. End-effectors are essential to the functionality and useworthiness of robots. The performance requirements for the automatic grasping function for simplified robot use have been brought out through user trials. The thesis demonstrates that user trials with robots as assistive devices can result in new knowledge about both the use of the technology itself and the personal characteristics - needs, abilities, wishes, and dreams - of the user. Parts of the thesis have already been published or will be published in the form of articles and conference papers: - Robotics in rehabilitation.

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- All people are different. All teachers are different. All students are different. They have different life situations, different study situations, and different preferences, conditions, and abilities. How can we take this diversity into account when we plan our teaching and exams? What situations should we prepare for? How can we help students focus on their learning and not on unnecessary obstacles we unconsciously introduce? If we make small efforts upfront, this lets us avoid much larger efforts later on when we are confronted with the reality of students in our class and their different needs.At this round table, let us discuss diversity in teaching and learning. During fall 2023, a pilot of the course “The Inclusive Classroom” was run at LTH, the Faculty of Engineering at Lund University. We present the compiled, most important take-aways of participants and instructors, in addition to individual case-studies. In a nutshell: There are a lot of easy things you can do that can already have large effects, and you are not alone: LTH has many resources to support you. Please join a supportive, engaged community and learn from and with us!

Capturing seniors' requirements for assistive robots by the use of attention cards

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper describes and reflects upon a senior-oriented participatory design methodology that facilitates communication, attention and creativity. Previous research indicates that seniors tend to lose focus and start cross talking during workshops, which results in broad and superficial findings. However, our workshop methodology indicates that the use of attention cards helps the seniors to stay focused by visualizing concrete first person narrative scenarios. This paper does not describe the findings of the workshop. Instead, we use our experience to propose ways in which the process of eliciting user requirements for novel technologies from old users with no prior experience of the technology in question can be made.

Case report : Implications of Doing Research on Socially Assistive Robots in real Homes

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The current paper addresses the implications of doing research on socially assistive robots in real homes. In contrast to laboratory studies, studies of robots in their intended natural environments can provide insights into people’s experiences of robots, and if and how a robot becomes embedded and used in people’s everyday life. However, moving robots out of the lab and into real life environments poses several challenges. Laboratory methods mainly focus on cause-and-effect relations between independent and dependent variables, while researchers who are conducting studies in real homes have much less control. In home trials, researchers need to decide what kind of data is obtainable and available. In real homes, researchers face unique challenges that require unique and pragmatic approaches. Any single study conducted in a real home is likely to have methodological limitations. Therefore, several different studies using different robots and methods are needed before the results can be converged in order to reach conclusions that are convincingly supported. This paper is an effort to provide such a report on a specific empirical case and converging findings from other studies. The goal is to provide an account of the research challenges and opportunities encountered when introducing a robot into its intended practice: the homes of older people. The aim is to give enough details for other researchers to critically examine and systematically build on the insights and findings presented.

Older people's involvement in the development of a social assistive robot

Ingår i: Social Robotics. - Cham : Springer International Publishing. - 9783319026749 ; 8239, s. 8-18

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The introduction of social assistive robots is a promising approach to enable a growing number of elderly people to continue to live in their own homes as long as possible. Older people are often an excluded group in product development; however this age group is the fastest growing segment in most developed societies. We present a participatory design approach as a methodology to create a dialogue with older people in order to understand the values embodied in robots. We present the results of designing and deploying three participatory workshops and implementing a subsequent robot mock-up study. The results indicate that robot mock-ups can be used as a tool to broaden the knowledge-base of the users' personal goals and device needs in a variety of ways, including supporting age-related changes, supporting social interaction and regarding robot aesthetic. Concerns that robots may foster inactivity and laziness as well as loss of human contact were repeatedly raised and must be addressed in the development of assistive domestic robots.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Engaging old users in the exploration of future product concepts can be challenging. It is of great value to find ways to actively involve them in the design of novel technologies intended for them, particularly when they have no prior experience of the technology in question. One obstacle in this process is that many old people do not identify themselves as being old or they think that it (the technology) would be good for others but not themselves. This paper presents a card method to overcome this obstacle. A full-day workshop with three internal focus groups was run with 14 participants. Based on our experience, we propose a way in which active participation in the process of eliciting user requirements for assistive robots from old users with no prior experience of assistive robots can be carried out.

What older people expect of robots : A mixed methods approach
- 2013
-
Ingår i: Social Robotics. - Cham : Springer International Publishing. - 9783319026749 ; 8239, s. 19-29
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper focuses on how older people in Sweden imagine the potential role of robots in their lives. The data collection involved mixed methods, including focus groups, a workshop, a questionnaire and interviews. The findings obtained and lessons learnt from one method fed into another. In total, 88 older people were involved. The results indicate that the expectations and preconceptions about robots are multi-dimensional and ambivalent. Ambivalence can been seen in the tension between the benefits of having a robot looking after the older people, helping with or carrying out tasks they no longer are able to do, and the parallel attitudes, resilience and relational inequalities that accompany these benefits. The participants perceived that having a robot might be "good for others but not themselves", "good as a machine not a friend" while their relatives and informal caregivers perceived a robot as "not for my relative but for other older people".

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Assistive robots have received considerable research attention due to the increase of the senior population around the world and the shortage of caregivers. However, limited attention has been paid to involving seniors in the design process in order to elicit their attitudes and perception of having their own robot. This study addresses this issue. We conducted a workshop with 14 Swedish seniors age 65 to 86. The findings indicate that: (1) the functionality of the robot is far more important than the appearance; (2) the usefulness will determine the acceptance of a robot; (3) seniors feel it is important to keep up to date with new technological developments; (4) assistive robots were not perceived as intrusive and having a robotic presence in the seniors' bathrooms and bedrooms was considered acceptable. These findings suggest that seniors are prepared to give assistive robots a try if the robot is perceived as useful.

Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Det mesta i den här boken tar sin utgångspunkt i människor med funktionsnedsättningar. Situationer med stora svårigheter behöver en stark prioritering, både för sin egen del och för att det särskilda förr eller senare brukar komma det gemensamma till godo. Boken har två delar. Den första består av tio minst sagt spretiga kapitel som alla visar på att hur svår en situation än är, finns det alltid något man kan göra. Dessa kapitel är nog så innehållsrika men samtidigt lättlästa. De är helt enkelt avsedda att berätta sina historier, rakt upp och ner, varje kapitel för sig. Fullt så lättläst är inte del 2. I den försöker vi visa på teori- och metodbildning som kan underlätta, hålla samman och vidareutveckla. Den delen har också en rikhaltig referenslista för vidare studier.

- In this paper we discuss the dynamic nature of mobile usage, and how this impacts on design and evaluation, particularly in an industrial setting. We argue that current industry oriented design tools need to be extended to cater more effectively to the highly dynamic and context-dependent nature of mobile usage -- we suggest more focus should be put on doing instead of on being. In order to achieve this we suggest a lightweight design/insight tool developed to suit industrial practice: context cards. These cards allow designers, developers, and usability experts to perform lightweight explorations of the consequences of a range of mobile situations.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Skalan Tydliga mål (TM) i Course Evaluation Questionnaire (CEQ, en kursutvärderingsenkät som ges vid Lunds Tekniska Högskola), mäter hur väl lärarna kommunicerar kursens lärandemål och vad de förväntar sig att studenterna ska prestera för att uppfylla lärandemålen. Projektbaserade kurser har en form av examination – pro- jektet – som inte är vanlig för studenterna och där tydlighet har en särskild vikt. Projektbaserade kurser har ofta ett sämre betyg för TM-skalan än andra kurser, vilket indikerar att stu- denterna oftare känner sig osäkra på vad de förväntas leverera och hur deras projekt kommer att bedömas.Flera orsaker till dessa osäkerheter har tidigare identifierats och i denna studie har sambandet mellan dessa orsaker och omdömena på TM-skalan undersökt. För detta syfte byggdes en ”osäkerhetsskala” (OS); ett aggregerat mått av osäkerheten studenterna upplever p.g.a. dessa orsaker. Resultaten visar att det finns en stark korrelation mellan OS och TM-skalan för de tre kurser som ingick i studien.I studien undersöktes även om studenternas individuella at tityd mot och hantering av osäkerhet påverkar deras svar till TM-skalan. För detta användes en kort version av instrumen- tet Uncertainty Response Scale (URS). Ingen korrelation mel- lan URS och TM-skalan och mellan URS och OS hittades.

Tydligare mål och förväntningar i projektbaserade kurser
- 2018

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- CEQ-resultaten för en del projektbaserade kurser visar att studenterna upplever att kursens mål inte är tydliga (skalan "Tydliga mål", TM, i CEQ). Studenterna verkar således vara ganska osäkra på vad lärarna förväntar sig av dem. Detta är ett problem som kräver uppmärksamhet, eftersom otydliga mål och förväntningar kan vara en anledning till frustration, oro och onödig stress hos studenterna, även om de är i övrigt ganska nöjda med projektkurser i efterhand.En intervjuundersökning med studenter från olika projektbaserade LTH-kurser har genomförts och en orsak-verkanmodell som förtydligar osäkerheterna som studenterna känner kring projektarbete har utvecklats.Några lärare har redan lyckats förbättra sina kurser så att studenterna upplever att de vet vad som förväntas av dem, vilket speglas i resultatet som kurserna får i skalan TM i CEQenkäten. Baserat på dessa kurser och orsak-verkan-modellen presenteras ett angreppssätt och tre exempel.

Proceedings of the 5th Nordic Conference on Human-Computer Interaction - Using Bridges
- 2008
-
Proceedings (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- NordiCHI is the main forum for human-computer interaction research in the Nordic countries. It is a biannual event. The first four were held in Stockholm (2000), Aarhus (2002), Tampere (2004) and Oslo (2006). This year's conference in Lund is hosted by Lund University in affiliation with Malmö University and IT University of Copenhagen.The theme is Using Bridges: A key challenge that our everyday culture raises is to find better ways to combine theory and practice. Bridging needs to take place on many levels: individual-to- individual, many-to-many, culture-to-culture, region-to-region, human-to-artefact, mankind-to- technology, and artefact-to-artefact. The vision is that the conference will enable the meeting of cultures within HCI --- geographically distinct ones as well as those of academia, industry and public life.The broad call for participation elicited an excellent response, and we are happy to offer a high-quality technical programme that combines the best of the NordiCHI tradition with emerging trends in interaction design. The technical programme combines five different categories of submissions: full papers, short papers, design cases, industrial experience reports and interactive events (demonstrations). The industrial experience report category follows the initiative from NordiCHI 2006, whereas the design case category is new this year. The intention of design cases is twofold: to open a venue for the growing community of design researchers in HCI, interaction design and related fields, and to experiment with a format for knowledge production in which the significance of critics and criticism is acknowledged.We received 139 full papers, 112 short papers, 3 design cases and 9 industrial experience reports. An international committee comprising 161 reviewers helped in the selection process. In the end we accepted 42 full papers, 39 short papers (12 for plenum presentation and 27 as poster presentations), 2 design cases each with two critiques, and 8 industrial experience reports. The acceptance rate for full papers was 30.2% and 34.8% for short papers. The submitted full papers represent 20 countries, with the accepted ones representing 9, whereof 5 are outside the Nordic region.
