The HOBBIT project sets out to study a future robot that will make older persons feel safe at home. It will pick up objects from the floor, can learn objects and bring objects, and it is equipped with easy-to-use entertainment functions. HOBBIT will offer tools to stay socially connected, keep active with playing games and exercise, and enjoy your time checking out now films, music and books. HOBBIT will detect emergency situations and trigger an appropriate alarm. The focus of HOBBIT is on the development of the mutual care concept: building a relationship between the human and the robot in which both take care for each other. Like when a person learns what an animal understands and can do; similar to building a bond with a pet. The main task of the robot is fall prevention and detection. To achieve this, the robot will clean the floor from all objects and thus reduce the risk of falling. It will detect emergency situations such that help can be called in time. The purpose of the Mutual Care approach is to increase the acceptance of the home robot.
