Assistance System

Assistance systems are rapidly evolving to provide personalized support for diverse user needs, ranging from navigation aid for the visually impaired to shared autonomy for wheelchair users and enhanced situational awareness for drivers of partially autonomous vehicles. Current research emphasizes the development of robust models using computer vision, natural language processing, and machine learning techniques, including vision-language models and reactive shared control frameworks, to achieve more effective and adaptable assistance. This field is significant due to its potential to improve the quality of life for individuals with disabilities and enhance human-robot collaboration across various domains, driving advancements in both human-computer interaction and artificial intelligence.
