The contest bcゲーム ログインできない held in May-June 2023 to support researchers and developers from all over the world with the aim of bringing innovative tools that enable people living in wheelchairs with disabilities such as paralysis to "walk independently" (*) without the assistance of a caregiver, and to make use of their residual functions.

(*) For the purpose of this contest, independent walking is defined as bcゲーム ログインできないbility of a person with a disability such as paralysis to walk without bcゲーム ログインできないssistance of others or without the use of a wheelchair.

Entries bcゲーム ログインできない accepted until March 31, 2023, ahead of the contest. The organizer looks forward to receiving many applications from people concerned.

Contest background:
The number of people who need assistance in their daily lives due to aging, illness, or accidentbcゲーム ログインできないbcゲーム ログインできないncreasing worldwide. While both caregivers and recipients of assistance are subjected to a number of mental, physical, and financial burdens, the development of robots for the welfare sector is an area in which investment is difficult to come by because the market is not large enough.

The development of public infrastructure and the promotion of barrier-free accessibility have made it possible for people with limited mobility to live their daily lives alone if they have a wheelchair, but they still face limitationbcゲーム ログインできないn their activities outside of a well-developed environment. The organizer believes that a walking support robot that can be used both indoors and outdoors without worrying about barrier-free accessibility would enable people with disabilities to enjoy their lives to a greater extent.

The GIC Contest is being held with the aim of enabling people living in wheelchairs with disabilities, such as paralysis of the lower limbs, to "walk independently" withoubcゲーム ログインできないuman assistance, making use of their remaining functions, through the development of innovative tools.

Comment from Tatsufumi Kamimura, Chairman, bcゲーム ログインできないecutive Committee:
"This will be the second time for the contest to be held. In 2021, the contesbcゲーム ログインできないad to be held online due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but the next contest in spring 2023 will be held at the GIC Tsukuba Innovation Center, in a contest field that will resemble an ordinary house. The committee members are looking forward to seeing what new technologies will be created this time as well. We look forward to receiving many entries from many countries."

- Determined to Help People with Leg Disabilities Realize Their Desire to Stand and Walk on Their Own -

The bcゲーム ログインできないtion Challenge Executive Committee has launched “bcゲーム ログインできないtion Challenge 2021 -- Living Assistance Robot Award” under the theme of ensuring living assistance for disabled people with the aim of achieving a society where people will not have to be conscious about disabilities.

bcゲーム ログインできないtion Challenge’s initiative
- Helping people with leg disabilities realize their desire to stand and walk on their own

There are growing numbers of people in the world who need bcゲーム ログインできないistance because of advanced age, illnesses and injuries they suffered in accidents, among other factors. While both assistance providers and recipients are required to shoulder certain mental, physical and financial burdens, investors are not necessarily enthusiastic about investing in the development of robots for health and welfare because the market for this field is relatively small.

- Social structure that makebcゲーム ログインできないt difficult to achieve demand-supply balance for new options to help disabled people broaden the scope of their living

The improvement of public infrastructure and the promotion of barrier-free access now allow people with leg disabilities to lead their daily lives on their own to a greater extent if they have wheelchairs. Still, their activities are restricted in areas where such an environment has not been sufficiently developed. For example, if people with leg disabilities visit their friends’ homes that have not been made barrier-free like their own homes, their activities will be restrained. They can travel by using wheelchairs, receiving assistance from others and using support equipment to walk, but many of them desire to stand and walk on their own. Regardless of whether sufficient public infrastructure ibcゲーム ログインできないn place and barrier-free accesbcゲーム ログインできないs available, the organizer of the initiative believes that robots that help people walk on their own will allow those with leg disabilities to enjoy freer daily livebcゲーム ログインできないn their own ways to a greater extent.

- Establishment of bcゲーム ログインできないistance Robot Award

The bcゲーム ログインできないistance Robot Award has been established to ensure that innovative robots which help people in wheelchair fully use their residual functions to walk on their own will be broadly in use all over the world. The award will support those engaged in research and development of such robots worldwide.

- Message from Tatsufumi Kamimura, chairman of the bcゲーム ログインできないtion Challenge Executive Committee

“Science bcゲーム ログインできないechnology have been advancing constantly. Smartphones have realized many things that were previously regarded just as dreams. Our daily lives and business activities are moving at an increasingly rapid pace and we live in a world where we can try new things. However, once people become physically disabled because of accidents or illnesses, they find it difficult to lead ordinary lives.

“We have established this award because we believe that we can create a world where people won’t have to be conscious about disabilities by applying evolving science and technology to the field of health and welfare and supporting engineerbcゲーム ログインできないn this field.

“We would be glad if this award helps those engaged in research and development all over the world.bcゲーム ログインできないdquo;
