910 <li>Using manipulability as an indicator for this planning, the system plans the position of the goods relative to the base position.</li>

943 <ol>
944 <li>The system maps the manipulability that corresponds to the robots and each person on the local coordinate system.</li>
945 <li>Both manipulability maps are integrated, and the position of goods is determined.</li>

969 <li>As shown in Fig. 16a, we take the maximum manipulability value according to each height, and retain the XY coordinates of each local coordinate system.</li>

981 <li>The position of the person that will receive the delivered goods is managed through TMS_SS and TMS_DB, and it is also possible to use this position as a reference point to request the position of the goods by fitting the relative coordinates.</li>

1002 <li>Consequently, at the time of delivery, points on the circumference of the position of the object are determined to be candidate points on the absolute coordinate system of the base position.</li>
1003 <li>Considering all of the prospect points of the circumference, the following action planning, for which the system extracts multiple candidate points, is redundant.</li>

1014 <li>Here, View is a Boolean value that represents whether the robot enters the field of vision of the target person. If it is inside the field of vision, then View is 1, otherwise View is 0.</li>
1015 <li>This calculation is necessary because if the robot can enter the field of vision of the target person, then the robot can be operated more easily and the risk of unexpected contact with the robot is also reduced.</li>

1037 <li>Path planning for robots that serve in a general living environment requires a high degree of safety, which can be achieved by lowering the probability of contact with persons.</li>
1038 <li>However, for robots that push wagons, the parameter space that uniquely defines this state has a maximum of six dimensions, that is, position (x,y) and posture (θ) of a robot and a wagon, and planning a path that represents the highest safety values in such a space is time consuming.</li>

1190 <li>We consider six pieces of target furniture, including two tables, two shelves, one chair, and one bed.</li>
1191 <li>For each piece of furniture, we prepared 10 sets of previously stored data and newly acquired data of kinds of goods including books, snacks, cups, etc., and performed point change detection separately for each set.</li>

1363 <li>In the present paper, we have introduced a service robot system with an informationally structured environment named ROS–TMS that is designed to support daily activities of elderly individuals.</li>
1364 <li>The room considered herein contains several sensors to monitor the environment and a person.</li>
1365 <li>The person is assisted by a humanoid robot that uses information about the environment to support various activities.</li>

1373 <ul>
1374 <li>In the present study, we concentrated on detection and fetch-and-give tasks, which we believe will be among most commonly requested tasks by the elderly in their daily lives.</li>
1375 <li>We have presented the various subsystems that are necessary for completing this task and have conducted several independent short-term experiments to demonstrate the suitability of these subsystems, such as a detection task using a sensing system and a fetch-and-give task using a robot motion planning system of the ROS–TMS.</li>

1382 <h1 id="conclusions-2">7. Conclusions</h1>
1383 <ul>
1384 <li>Currently, we adopt a deterministic approach for choosing proper data from redundant sensory information based on the reliability pre-defined manually.</li>
1385 <li>Our future work will include the extension to the probabilistic approach for fusing redundant sensory information.</li>
1386 <li>Also, we intend to design and prepare a long-term experiment in which we can test the complete system for a longer period of time</li>
