Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Internet of Things enables devices to communicate with each other, facilitating data flow across conventional networks. The millions of gadgets connected to this network generate massive quantities of data, while also still allowing access to items themselves. The IoT has found applications in various areas over the last few years, including transportation, manufacturing, healthcare, and agriculture. One of the most promising domains within the Internet of Things is robotic applications, also known as the Internet of Robotic Things (IoRT). The ability of the Internet of Things to offer linked robots remote control and context sharing has spurred new research in robotics.
The goal of this Special Issue is to bring together recent works on a wide range of topics concerning the application of learning and evolution in robotics.
The scope of the Special Issue includes but is not limited:
- IoRT in in assistive robotics;
- Cloud robotic intelligence;
- IoR in manufacturing;
- IoR for human–robot interaction;
- Cloud robotics;
- Biologically motivated IoR;
- Remote control of robotic systems;
- Learning and evolution in IoR systems.
