Abstract

One of the main factors that influenced in service robotic development is identified
in aging of human population in various countries. In the world is increased number of retired
and aged population. Designers of service robotics has a challenge and chance to find solution
which will satisfy these population in regards of social and health care and provide them complete
help and support. In this paper application of service robots and robotized systems examples
are given which helps to patients, persons with handicaps in performing daily tasks
and support in rehabilitation. Aim of robotic technology is developing of service robots which
