Couverture / Jaquette

Human-Machine Interfaces in Medical Robotics presents essential and advanced information on developing intuitive human-machine interfaces (HMI) for robotic surgery and rehabilitation. This book provides extensive coverage of multidisciplinary information needed to develop efficient HMI, discussing core technologies of the field, including hand-free control strategies, sensory feedback, data-driven approaches, human-robot shared control, autonomous control, human motor adaption, training, and learning.

Arranged in three parts, including interfaces in medical robotics, intelligent machines, and human users, this book provides potential solutions to open questions like what the optimal interface and efficient interaction mode is to facilitate a surgeon’s operation, a patient’s motor control, or human augmentation.
