Contreras-Vidal, Herman van der Kooij, José Luis Pons1st ed. 2017.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2017.1 online resource (XII, 449 p. 147 illus.) Biosystems & Biorobotics,2195-3562 ;163-319-46531-7 3-319-46532-5 Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters.The book reports on advanced topics in the areas of wearable robotics research and practice. It focuses on new technologies, including neural interfaces, soft wearable robots, sensors and actuators technologies, and discusses important regulatory challenges, as well as clinical and ethical issues. Based on the 2nd International Symposium on Wearable Robotics, WeRob2016, held October 18-21, 2016, in Segovia, Spain, the book addresses a large audience of academics and professionals working in government, industry, and medical centers, and end-users alike. It provides them with specialized information and with a source of inspiration for new ideas and collaborations. It discusses exemplary case studies highlighting practical challenges related to the implementation of wearable robots in a number of fields. One of the focus is on clinical applications, which was encouraged by the colocation of WeRob2016 with the International Conference on Neurorehabilitation, INCR2016. Additional topics include space applications and assistive technologies in the industry. The book merges together the engineering, medical, ethical and political perspectives, thus offering a multidisciplinary, timely snapshot of the field of wearable technologies. .Biosystems & Biorobotics,2195-3562 ;16Biomedical engineeringRoboticsAutomationUser interfaces (Computer systems)Rehabilitation medicineManagementIndustrial managementBiomedical Engineering and Bioengineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T2700XRobotics and Automationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T19020User Interfaces and Human Computer Interactionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I18067Rehabilitation Medicinehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H55030Innovation/Technology Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/518000Biomedical engineering.Robotics.Automation.User interfaces (Computer systems).Rehabilitation medicine.Management.Industrial management.Biomedical Engineering and Bioengineering.Robotics and Automation.User Interfaces and Human Computer Interaction.Rehabilitation Medicine.Innovation/Technology Management.610.28González-Vargas Joséedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtIbáñez Jaimeedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtContreras-Vidal Jose Ledthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtvan der Kooij Hermanedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtPons José Luisedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910254354503321Wearable Robotics: Challenges and Trends2138060UNINA
