Rehabilitation engineering uses engineering sciences to develop technological solutions and devices to assist individuals with disabilities and also supports the rehabilitation of those who have lost their physical and cognitive functions. Systems can be designed and built to meet a wide range of needs in order to help those with impaired mobility, communication, vision, hearing and cognition. And these tools and devices assist the disabled in their daily activities such as, for example, attending school or working.

Intelligent systems have a wide range of technological developments which will enhance research in the field of rehabilitation engineering. The growing list of these developments, such as machine learning, deep learning, robotics, virtual intelligence, etc., plays an important role in rehabilitation engineering.

The material collected in this book has been edited to provide information on current research achievements and challenges in the area of rehabilitation engineering and intelligent systems. The target audience of this book includes senior and junior engineers, undergraduate and postgraduate students, researchers, and anyone else interested in the trends, developments, and opportunities of rehabilitation engineering and intelligent system concepts. Research trends in the design and development of innovative technologies are highlighted along with the techniques involved. And even though it is impossible to include all current aspects of the research being conducted in targeted areas, the book is a useful resource in terms of presenting the various possible methodologies that can be applied to achieve results in the field. Presented below is a brief description of the topics covered in the 10 chapters of the book.
