(Invited Paper) Distance Type Fuzzy Reasoning and its Application to Medical Welfare Robots Shuoyu Wang* (Received: May 20th, 2013) School of Systems Engineering, Kochi University of Technology 185 Tosayamadacho-Miyanokuchi, Kami, Kochi, 782-8502, JAPAN * E -mail: wang.shuoyu@kochi-tech.ac.jp Abstract: This paper introduces the distance type fuzzy reasoning method and its application to the intelligent technologies for medical welfare robots. First, the algorithm and properties of the fuzzy reasoning based on the distance between fuzzy sets are explained. Second, a guide robot and a walking support robot are introduced as the examples of medical welfare robots. Furthermore, the intelligent technologies, which have been applied to the guide robot and the walking support robot, using the distance type fuzzy reasoning method are described. Finally, the contribution of medical welfare robots to the aged society is surveyed. 28
