Robotic platforms to help people with disabilities are being developed with the aim of providing both rehabilitation treatment and assistance to improve their quality of life. A high demand for robotic platforms that provide assistance during rehabilitation is expected because of the health status of the world due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic has resulted in countries facing major challenges to ensure the health and autonomy of their disabled population. Robotic platforms are necessary to ensure assistance and rehabilitation for disabled people in the current global situation. The capacity of robotic platforms in this area must be continuously improved to benefit the healthcare sector in terms of chronic disease prevention, assistance, and autonomy. For this reason, research about human?robot interaction in these robotic assistance environments must grow and advance because this topic demands sensitive and intelligent robotic platforms that are equipped with complex sensory systems, high handling functionalities, safe control strategies, and intelligent computer vision algorithms. This Special Issue has published eight papers covering recent advances in the field of robotic platforms to assist disabled people in daily or clinical environments. The papers address innovative solutions in this field, including affordable assistive robotics devices, new techniques in computer vision for intelligent and safe human?robot interaction, and advances in mobile manipulators for assistive tasks. 606 $aHumanities$2bicssc 606 $aSocial interaction$2bicssc 610 $asensors 610 $aelectronic platform 610 $amachine learning 610 $awearables 610 $ahand motor rehabilitation 610 $asEMG 610 $ahand pose 610 $asocial robot 610 $aphysical human-robot interaction 610 $aassistive robotics 610 $acollaborative robots 610 $abrain-machine interfaces 610 $aEEG 610 $aexoskeleton 610 $amotor imagery 610 $ahuman-robot interaction 610 $ahuman pose estimation 610 $arobotic rehabilitation 610 $avisually impaired assistance 610 $anavigation system 610 $aknowledge graph 610 $adialogue system 610 $aNLP 610 $areasoning 610 $amultimodal interfaces 610 $arobotic exoskeleton 615 7$aHumanities 615 7$aSocial interaction 700 $aJara$b Carlos A$4edt$01309568 702 $aCorrales Ramo?n$b Juan Antonio$4edt 702 $aJara$b Carlos A$4oth 702 $aCorrales Ramo?n$b Juan Antonio$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910566465803321 996 $aRobotic Platforms for Assistance to People with Disabilities$93029399 997 $aUNINA
