Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Robotic technologies have been widely applied over recent decades. As innovations and new research ideas rapidly accelerate in the field, biologically inspired techniques signify new possibilities to overcome the limitations of conventional robots for medical applications. Combined with the emerging development of artificial intelligence, sensing and imaging technologies, bio-inspired robotic and mechatronic systems will have a bright future to reach their ultimate potential for medical applications.
Along with the recent enormous research gains, bio-inspired technologies offer novel opportunities for intelligent medical diagnostics and therapeutic systems. We hope to establish a collection of papers that will be of interest to scholars in the field.
This Special Issue seeks to collect recent research on bio-inspired medical robotics, which is a fruitful domain experiencing tremendous levels of research activity and interest. We look forward to the participation of researchers who are conducting research in this field. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Surgical robotics and instrumentation;
- Rehabilitation robotics and instrumentation;
- Medical robotics.
