Visit to Developmental Disabilities Association (DDA) Camsell group home

Our lab members did our first site visit today at the Developmental Disabilities Association (DDA) Camsell group home in Richmond for the AETHER Collaborative Service Robot Project. You might wonder: what is the AETHER robot for?

Aether is a collaborative service robot, designed for staff and residents working and living in care homes to support independence, safety, privacy and happiness. This project will build on previous work accomplished by JDQ Systems Inc. and the Developmental Disabilities Association (DDA), and academic partners under previous Mitacs Accelerate and NSERC Engage programs.
