The Need for Assistive Technologies
Profile of Older Americans
• 65+ population
– 40.4 million: 2010
– Increase of 5.4 million (15.3%) since 2000
– 1 in every 8 Americans
• Average life expectancy for those over 65
– 17.3 years: male
– 20 years: female
• 85+ population
– 5.5 million: 2010
– 6.6 million: 2020
• 20% of Americans have disabilities
Profile of Wounded Warriors

Robotic Applications and
Industrial Automation
• Smart Home Technologies
• Unmanned Systems
• Low Volume / Lean Manufacturing
The University of Texas at Arlington Research Institute
Biomedical Instrumentation
• Preventative and Assistive Medical Devices
• Bioelectronics
• Tissue Regeneration and Wound Care
The University of Texas at Arlington Research Institute
What’s Common?
• Two focus areas
– Unmanned Systems
– Smart Homes and Assistive Technologies
• Focus on Robotic Technologies
– Robots are a solution in a domain space
• Common Technologies
– Sensing
– Manipulation
– Mobility / Navigation
– Interconnectivity
The lessons and benefits in Unmanned Technologies benefit
the needs and objectives of Assistive Technologies
The University of Texas at Arlington Research Institute
See us in Booth 970
• Booth focus on
– Smart Homes
– Unmanned Systems
• More than happy to talk about our other
activities as well
