A special event was the REACTION Clustering meeting, 28. September 2013, where many related EU projects have been presented:
Alexandra, Schmid, invited talk: "HOBBIT - The Mutual Care Robot"; HOBBIT was presented at the Clustering Meeting at the Foundation for Research & Technology - Hellas in Heraklion. The aim of the clustering event was to bring together European projects for demonstrations, presentations of innovative solutions, and discussions of potential synergies and cooperation. Participants were interested in the HOBBIT project especially because of the user centered approach, ethical issues were discussed and concerning experiences have been shared.
