Advanced Rehabilitation Technology

Abstract:

Advanced Rehabilitation Technology provides complex tools with both therapeutical and assistive function. Both designing and therapeutic use of these cybernetic organisms need a sustained interdisciplinary collaboration, the achievements in this domain being the result of the team work of software specialists, researchers from medical, kinematic, technical, electronic, military, sports fields, psychologists, philosophers, bioethics specialists, and not least, of the specialists from medical and neurological rehabilitation clinics and their patients.
