About This Book

Optical Fiber Sensors for the Next Generation of Rehabilitation Robotics presents development concepts and applications of optical fiber sensors made of compliant materials in rehabilitation robotics. The book provides methods for the instrumentation of novel compliant devices. It presents the development, characterization and application of optical fiber sensors in robotics, ranging from conventional robots with rigid structures to novel wearable systems with soft structures, including smart textiles and intelligent structures for healthcare. Readers can look to this book for help in designing robotic structures for different applications, including problem-solving tactics in soft robotics.

This book will be a great resource for mechanical, electrical and electronics engineers and photonics and optical sensing engineers.

  • Addresses optical fiber sensing solutions in wearable systems and soft robotics
  • Presents developmentsā€”from foundational, to novel and future applicationsā€”of optical fiber sensors in the next generation of robotic devices
  • Provides methods for the instrumentation of novel compliant devices
