Abstract
How can older adults actively participate in the design processes of assistive robots designed for their homes? We have organized workshops with a group of older adults who worked actively with materials and physical prototyping to design a fetch robot for the home. We present the basics of the workshop materials, how the workshop was performed, and findings on the role of physical prototyping from the workshops.
