Service Robotics Special Issue (2014/2015) Editorial
Marco Ceccarelli · International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems · 2015
Service robots have attracted attention for more than a couple of decades, but have only recently become widely accepted in experienced markets, at least in some sectors. Thus, an increased interest for developing new service robots and applying robotic systems for new service tasks has emerged. Innovation is expected not only in terms of successful tasks, but even in developing robotic systems for tasks in other new areas.
