Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is our pleasure to launch this Special Issue and call for original papers that describe recent technological developments in wearable mobile machines. From smart monitoring systems to exoskeletons, wearable devices are being introduced in our daily lives as powerful tools to monitor the user’s healthcare and assist us in physically demanding tasks. Contributions from all fields related to the subject are welcome, such as, but not limited to, the following topics:
- Novel wearable mobile machines;
- Novel exoskeleton actuators, passive and active, for healthcare and industry;
- Novel exoskeleton monitoring, benchmark, and control techniques;
- Soft wearable robots and technology;
- Safety and regulatory aspects of wearable technology.
