| Abstract | This paper proposes a new method for excretion care by use of robot technology. Excretion care is one of the most burdensome tasks in care, along with bathing care. Among the problems related to excretion care, transfer of the care recipient between a wheelchair and a toilet is the most acute problem. Therefore, we proposed a new transfer method for getting rid of twisting the coupled bodies of both a caregiver and a care recipient by replacing a wheelchair and a toilet automatically while the care recipient is keeping his/her standing position. Experimental results showed that the proposed method was expected to reduce the physical burden of the caregiver during excretion care. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
