Cloud-integrated robotics: transforming healthcare and rehabilitation for individuals with disabilities

This paper explores the intersection of assistive technologies and cloud robotics, elucidating their transformative impact on healthcare, rehabilitation, and inclusivity for individuals with disabilities. By seamlessly integrating cloud computing and robotic systems, this convergence empowers personalized and data-driven interventions. The applications encompass a spectrum, ranging from cloud-connected prosthetics and robotic exoskeletons to communication devices and smart mobility aids. Benefits include real-time data analysis, remote customization, and adaptive learning, enhancing accessibility and collaboration among healthcare professionals. However, challenges such as data security and latency necessitate robust solutions. Looking ahead, the future promises enhanced personalization, cognitive interaction, and augmented reality integration, along with ethical considerations. This dynamic synergy augments user empowerment, redefines rehabilitation, and advances societal inclusion, advocating for a collaborative and ethical approach to reshape the landscape of assistive technologies through cloud robotics.
