Toward ubiquitous intelligent robotics

This paper proposes a concept of robots called ubiquitous intelligent robot and introduces our research efforts toward establishing its fundamental technology. A ubiquitous intelligent robot is a kind of embodied intelligence that encompasses the sphere of people´s activities, records these activities, and supports people. Under this concept, we have developed an intelligent environment for capturing our experiences and a wearable event recording system for medical care. These developments mainly focus on recording people´s activities along with their environments.
