Abstract

A growing elderly population has created a need for innovative eldercare technologies. The use of a home robot to assist with daily tasks is one such example. In this paper we describe an interface for human-robot interaction, which uses built-in speech recognition in Android phones to control a mobile robot. We discuss benefits of using a smartphone for speech-based robot control and present speech recognition accuracy results for younger and older adults obtained with an Android smartphone.
