Sensors

Recent advances in machine learning, deep learning techniques, and sensors are greatly impacting how humans and computers and robots interact. For instance, surface electromyography sensors combined with deep-learning-based algorithms are currently being used to operate robotic prosthetic limbs or 3D pose estimation methods to control an avatar in Virtual Reality. Thus, the combination of sensors and machine learning techniques is enabling a range of novel and interesting applications. This Special Issue is intended to cover cutting-edge applications and research on new sensors, machine learning methods or their combination to perform human–computer and human–robot interaction. We strongly encourage the submission of papers focusing on the keywords below, but works on related topics will also be considered.
