    Special session description

    In this session, we aim to collect original research and review papers on the application of intelligent technologies in smart wearable devices and human-machine collaboration. Recent research in the field of Industry 4.0 and smart wearable devices has led to new approaches, resulting in a more positive impact on human-machine collaboration. The development and application of these technologies have also played a critical role in the transformation of smart manufacturing to more personalised and quantifiable. Human-factored design and human-machine interactions must be essential considerations to design effective systems. However, a major challenge in designing and controlling human-machine collaboration systems is effectively utilising motor assistance while maintaining natural, intuitive, smooth, and harmonious motion. To address this challenge, biomechatronic and user-centred design and control solutions are continuously evolving to improve portability, ergonomics, functionality and effectiveness, as well as acceptability and usability. Novel evaluation methods and protocols are also being developed to analyse human-machine interaction from robotic, biomechanical, and physiological perspectives.

    As the complexity of human working and living environments increases, so does the amount of data generated and the number of influencing factors. This can lead to greater uncertainty in the control process, potentially leading to unexpected situations in human-machine collaboration, rehabilitation, or even human augmentation. New approaches are required to address these new challenges and enable systems to achieve superior performance in more complex environments. Artificial intelligence technology, especially deep learning, can uncover hidden knowledge and associations in feature extraction and has strong data adaptability in adaptation control. Recently, AI-based human intention recognition, analysis, prediction, and control have become a research hotspot and have been widely applied in human rehabilitation, enhancement, and human-machine collaboration.

    This issue aims to collect original research and review articles on Intelligent/Smart Objects & Interaction, Intelligent/Smart Objects & Applications, Intelligent/Smart Systems & Services, and Personalisation and Social Aspects.
