Social Robots in Education
This book focuses on recent advances in the field of social robots and their integration in education. It elaborates on the progressive evolution of human-robot interaction and educational robotics, the emergence of digital pedagogy, and the implementation of personalized learning methodologies. The book also examines the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in education through the lenses of social robots. Hence, the book offers an overview of recent research into the adoption, integration, advancements, and impact of social robots and AI in education and presents guidelines and suggestions on how to integrate them in classrooms. Specifically, the book: Provides an in-depth overview of social robots and their use in education. Presents the advances of social robots and AI in education. Showcases innovative solutions and outcomes of integrating social robots in classrooms. Discusses the challenges, benefits, and future research directions of using social robots and AI in education.
Smart Intelligent Computing and Communication Technology
Recent developments in the fields of intelligent computing and communication have paved the way for the handling of current and upcoming problems and brought about significant technological advancements. This book presents the proceedings of IConIC 2021, the 4th International Conference on Intelligent Computing, held on 26 and 27 March 2021 in Chennai, India. The principle objective of the annual IConIC conference is to provide an international scientific forum where participants can exchange innovative ideas in relevant fields and interact in depth through discussion with their peer group. The theme of the 2021 conference and this book is ‘Smart Intelligent Computing and Communication Tec...
Robots in Education
Robots in Education is an accessible introduction to the use of robotics in formal learning, encompassing pedagogical and psychological theories as well as implementation in curricula. Today, a variety of communities across education are increasingly using robots as general classroom tutors, tools in STEM projects, and subjects of study. This volume explores how the unique physical and social-interactive capabilities of educational robots can generate bonds with students while freeing instructors to focus on their individualized approaches to teaching and learning. Authored by a uniquely interdisciplinary team of scholars, the book covers the basics of robotics and their supporting technologies; attitudes toward and ethical implications of robots in learning; research methods relevant to extending our knowledge of the field; and more.
Smart Learning with Educational Robotics
This book will offer ideas on how robots can be used as teachers' assistants to scaffold learning outcomes, where the robot is a learning agent in self-directed learning who can contribute to the development of key competences for today's world through targeted learning - such as engineering thinking, math, physics, computational thinking, etc. starting from pre-school and continuing to a higher education level. Robotization is speeding up at the moment in a variety of dimensions, both through the automation of work, by performing intellectual duties, and by providing support for people in everyday situations. There is increasing political attention, especially in Europe, on educational systems not being able to keep up with such emerging technologies, and efforts to rectify this. This edited volume responds to this attention, and seeks to explore which pedagogical and educational concepts should be included in the learning process so that the use of robots is meaningful from the pointof view of knowledge construction, and so that it is safe from the technological and cybersecurity perspective.
Humanizing Artificial Touch
Humanlike Touch for Prosthetics and Social Robotics: Skin, Sensing, and Structures contains recent advances in artificial skin modelling and robotic tactile sensing technologies, integrating these in the structure of an artificial hand mimicking its important features. This book will give special treatment to the relationship between the artificial skin material and embedded tactile sensors, describing how artificial skin and embedded sensors can be designed and constructed using 3D printing technologies with case examples on how these were created for amputees achieve a more a natural and rich human-robot tactile interaction. This book is oriented towards students, researchers, and clinical practitioners who are working in the design and construction of artificial hands for prosthetics and social robotics. - Presents simulation and experimental analyses of artificial skin materials with lifelike features - Introduces bio-inspired tactile sensors and neuromorphic tactile sensing methodologies - Explores the construction of patient-specific artificial hands through 3D printing technologies
Robot Ethics 2.0
The robot population is rising on Earth and other planets. (Mars is inhabited entirely by robots.) As robots slip into more domains of human life--from the operating room to the bedroom--they take on our morally important tasks and decisions, as well as create new risks from psychological to physical. This makes it all the more urgent to study their ethical, legal, and policy impacts. To help the robotics industry and broader society, we need to not only press ahead on a wide range of issues, but also identify new ones emerging as quickly as the field is evolving. For instance, where military robots had received much attention in the past (and are still controversial today), this volume look...

13th International Conference on Biomedical Engineering
th On behalf of the organizing committee of the 13 International Conference on Biomedical Engineering, I extend our w- mest welcome to you. This series of conference began in 1983 and is jointly organized by the YLL School of Medicine and Faculty of Engineering of the National University of Singapore and the Biomedical Engineering Society (Singapore). First of all, I want to thank Mr Lim Chuan Poh, Chairman A*STAR who kindly agreed to be our Guest of Honour to give th the Opening Address amidst his busy schedule. I am delighted to report that the 13 ICBME has more than 600 participants from 40 countries. We have received very high quality papers and inevitably we had to turndown some papers....
