Abstract :
This paper presents a robotic system with the interactive walking support assistance in a home environment. The designed system can perform user-adaptive characteristics to adapt to user´s walking gait while avoiding collisions. Besides, a call-and-come service which incorporates human gesture-based command is developed so that the user convenience and human friendliness can be enhanced.
