Rehabilitation Robotics

Robotics in shoulder rehabilitation.

In the last few decades, several researches have been conducted in the field of robotic rehabilitation to meet the intensive, repetitive and task-oriented training, with the goal to recover the motor function. Up to now, robotic rehabilitation studies of the upper extremity have generally focused on stroke survivors leaving less explored the field of orthopaedic shoulder rehabilitation. In this...

Trends in Evolutionary Robotics

A review is given on the use of evolutionary techniques for the automatic design of adaptive robots. The focus is on methods which use neural networks and have been tested on actual physical robots. The chapter also examines the role of simulation and the use of domain knowledge in the evolutionary process. It concludes with some predictions about future directions in robotics.
