Abstract
This Special Issue is focused on breakthrough developments in the field of assistive and rehabilitation robotics. The selected contributions include current scientific progress from biomedical signal processing and cover applications to myoelectric prostheses, lower-limb and upper-limb exoskeletons and assistive robotics.
Highlights
In recent years, the use of robotics to help motor-disabled people has experienced a significant growth, mostly based on the development and improvement of biosensor technology and the increasing interest in solving accessibility and rehabilitation limitations in a more natural and effective way
Biomedical signal processing has been combined with robotic technology, such as exoskeletons or assistive robotic arms or hands
Efforts are still needed to make these technologies affordable and useful for end users, as current biomedical devices are still mostly present in rehabilitation centers, hospitals and research facilities. This Special Issue covers several of the recent advances in robotic devices applied to motor rehabilitation and assistance
