Make to Care è nato nel 2016 proprio dalla collaborazione con Maker Faire Rome che da subito ha accolto con entusiasmo la nostra volontà di raccogliere idee che potessero migliorare il quotidiano di chi con coraggio affronta una qualche forma di disabilità. Idee che nascono fuori dai contesti classici dell’innovazione. Negli anni, insieme, abbiamo raccolto centinaia di progetti e prototipi, abbiamo dato voce a spunti davvero rivoluzionari, intercettando, mappando e alimentando l’ecosistema della Patient-driven-Innovation.

Revolutionising Healthcare Delivery With Cobots
We present a telehealth system where a robotic system to perform non invasive examinations on a the patient and is remotely controlled or supervised by a physician. The robotic arm at the patient's side is teleoperated by a physician using a haptic interface with force feedback that controls the motion of the tool mounted on the robot. The physician supervise the examination through a Virtual Reality interface which replicates the patient scenario. Example applications of this system are lung ultrasound for bronchopulmonary diseases and palpation screening for cancer detection.

The Interdepartmental Robotics Lab (IDRA) team is a heterogeneous mix of students and researchers of different ages and experiences currently belonging to the Departments of Information Engineering and Computer Science (DISI) and Industrial Engineering (DII) at the University of Trento, with backgrounds mainly in mechatronics and computer science. Among the past and current projects, we can mention the development of a smart assistive walker and collaborative robotic industrial applications and the technology transfer to establish start-ups, e.g., Polytec Intralogistics Srl.
