The AWARE CARE Robotic System
Project Summary
AWARE CARE is a next-generation intelligent flexible care robotic system designed to transform long-term healthcare for elderly, bedridden, and high-risk patients. The system integrates adaptive robotic nursing hardware, multi-modal sensing, AI-driven perception computing, and digital twin modeling into a unified care ecosystem that enables continuous, predictive, and personalized patient care.
Current long-term care solutions are largely device-centric and fragmented, focusing on isolated equipment such as beds or monitoring systems without intelligent coordination or predictive capability. Care delivery remains heavily dependent on manual intervention and individual caregiver experience, limiting standardization, personalization, and scalability.
AWARE CARE addresses these limitations by shifting long-term care from manual, reactive workflows to a data-driven, adaptive, and system-level care model, enabling safer, more consistent, and more efficient care across diverse healthcare environments.
Long-term
patient care requires intensive human labor, rapid response times, and carries a high risk of medical accidents.
Common risks include pressure ulcers, cardiac events, sleep apnea, airway obstruction from phlegm, and asthma-related complications.
As a result, the care process becomes complex, labor-intensive, and highly unpredictable.
