SUMMARY:EUROBENCH 2022 SUMMIT
DESCRIPTION:The EU-funded EUROBENCH project will host a “EUROBENCH Final Even” this June 21-22\, 2022 in Madrid\, Spain. The summit will have a digital component through YouTube: \n\nEUROBENCH Summit Tuesday 21\, June 2022: Link to YouTube\nEUROBENCH Summit Tuesday 22\, June 2022: Link to YouTube\n\nThe online component of the summit will be free to access. EUROBENCH is working to create a benchmarking framework for robotic systems in Europe\, including exoskeletons. The summit will bring together all the involved entities and many companies and researchers involved with the project. \nAgenda:\nThere are a total of 17 talks planned for this event. The full agenda can be found on the EROBENCH website (link). The talks focused on exoskeletons and wearable robotics will be mainly during the first day and include a wearable robots session centered around balance while using exoskeletons\, moving through narrow spaces\, measuring upper limbs involvement\, benchmarking exoskeleton-assisted gait\, navigating stairs\, and resilience (presumably of the wearable devices). Additional sessions will include human-robot interactions (which could include cobots and other non-wearable devices)\, regulations\, and performance. Both days will include a 2-hour lunch for networking\, for those attending the event in person. \nAbout EUROBENCH:\nThanks to the collaboration of the funded entities\, EUROBENCH has developed: \n\nTwo Testing Facilities\, one for wearable robots (located in the Hospital Los Madroños\, in Brunete\, Spain) and the other for humanoid robots (located in the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia\, in Genova\, Italy)\, to allow perform standardized tests on robotic prototypes in a unique location\, saving resources and time.\nA unified Benchmarking Software\, which includes: 1) common protocols to execute standardized tests in any lab setting\, 2) computational tools to compute performance scores according to quantitative Performance Indicators\, and 3) a unified database to compare the performance results with other systems.\n\nThis final event aims to bring together all the entities that have participated in the development of EUROBENCH. All companies and researchers in the field of robotics are also welcome! It is an essential meeting for robotics benchmarking in Europe. \nFor more information\, follow this link to the EUROBENCH Summit website. \n

SUMMARY:Summer Webinar Series: Standardization and Benchmarking
DESCRIPTION:The EUROBENCH Project and COST – Action Wearable Robots (CA 16116) will host their fourth and final webinar on exoskeletons and wearable robotics for 2021. The final webinar will be held on September 28 from 10:00 – 11:30 CET. For those residing in North or South America\, the webinars are usually recorded and the links can be found here: https://eurobench2020.eu/summer-webinar-series/. \nAgenda:\n\nFacilitating standardisation for cobots by COVR – Gerdienke Pranke\, COVR project (20’)\nCertification of wearable exoskeletons under new medical device regulation (MDR 2017/745) – Anna Mas\, ABLE Quality and Regulatory Director (20’)\nHarnessing robot experimentation to optimize the regulatory framing of emerging robot technologies – Eduard Fosch-Villaronga and Carlos J. Calleja\, eLaw Center for Law and Digital Technologies at Leiden University (20’)\nRound Table (30’)\n\nRegistration:\n\nAnna Mas Vinyals\, Ph.D. is the Head of Quality Assurance and Regulatory Affairs at ABLE Human Motion S.L. She received her Ph.D. in Bioengineering from IQS – URL (Barcelona) in 2018\, for the development of a tissue-engineered implant for knee osteoarthritis.\nGerdienke Pranke\, Ph.D.  With maximizing patients’ performance in daily life at heart\, I coordinate the research line Active Therapeutic Devices. With my ATD-colleagues and Ph.D. students\, I focus on clinical application and evaluation of rehabilitation technology to support the functional performance of people with movement limitations. Rehabilitation robots\, soft exoskeletons\, and serious games are the main focus points nowadays. My main research interests lie in understanding the impact of rehabilitation technology on neurophysiological\, biomechanical\, and clinical levels (including the safety of human-robot interaction)\, and supporting its application in clinical practice.\nDr. Fosch-Villaronga is an Assistant Professor at the eLaw Center for Law and Digital Technologies at Leiden University (NL) where he investigates legal and regulatory aspects of robot and AI technologies\, with a special focus on healthcare. Eduard recently published the book ‘Robots\, Healthcare\, and the Law. Regulating Automation in Personal Care’ with Routledge and is interested in human-robot interaction\, responsible innovation\, and the future of law.\nCarlos J. Calleja is a Research Assistant at the eLaw Center for Law and Digital Technologies at Leiden University (NL). Carlos is currently working within PROPELLING\, which stands for “Pushing Robot Development for Policymaking” and is an FSTP (financial support to third parties) from the Horizon 2020 Eurobench project. Carlos investigates the potential for using robot testbeds as data generators for speeding the creation\, revision\, or discontinuation of standards for lower-limb exoskeletons.\n\nStandards and certification is an important topic for the growth of the exoskeleton industry. Potential buyers shouldn’t be the ones that are downselecting devices and solutions based purely on marketing material. For example\, imagine having to purchase a car without an independent safety rating. This webinar could be a window into the efforts by EUROBENCH and how they compare and contrast to those of ASTM International and other organizations.
