Description:

Biomimetic research is an emerging field that aims to draw inspiration and substances from natural sources and create biological systems in structure, mechanism, and function through robotics. The products have a wide array of application including surgical robots, prosthetics, neurosurgery, and biomedical image analysis.

The Handbook of Research on Biomimetics and Biomedical Robotics provides emerging research on robotics, mechatronics, and the application of biomimetic design. While highlighting mechatronical challenges in today’s society, readers will find new opportunities and innovations in design capabilities in intelligent robotics and interdisciplinary biomedical products. This publication is a vital resource for senior and graduate students, researchers, and scientists in engineering seeking current research on best ways to globally expand online higher education.

Maki Habib obtained his Doctor of Engineering Sciences in Intelligent and Autonomous Robot from the University of Tsukuba, Japan. He was a senior research scientist with GMD, Japan, leading the Telecooperation group, Associate Professor with Monash University and lead the Mechatronics Engineering Programme. He was appointed as a full Professor of Robotics and Mechatronics at Swinburne University. Then, he was an invited Professor at KAIST, Korea, Visiting Professor at Saga University, Japan, and now a full Professor at AUC. His main area of research is focusing on human adaptive and friendly Mechatronics, autonomous navigation, service robots and humanitarian demining, telecooperation, distributed teleoperation and collaborative control, wireless sensor networks and ambient intelligence, biomemtic, bioinspiration and biomedical robots.
