Co-design methodology for rapid prototyping of modular robots in care settings by Alexandre Colle, Alexandre Colle, Alexandre Colle, Alexandre Colle, Alexandre Colle, Karen Donaldson, Karen Donaldson, Mauro Dragone, Mauro Dragone, Mauro Dragone

“…The methodology employs Design Research (DR) methods combined with Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM) principles, enabling rapid prototyping and iterative refinement based on continuous user feedback. The proposed approach was applied in the development of Robobrico, a modular robot created collaboratively with care home users.ResultsOutcomes from this study demonstrate that this structured process effectively aligns robot functionality with user expectations, enhances adaptability, and facilitates practical integration of modular robotic platforms in real-world care environments.DiscussionThis paper details the proposed methodology, the tools developed to support it, and key insights derived from its implementation.…”
