  • Abstract
    The editors are very pleased to introduce this Special Issue of IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering (TBME) Letters on Biomedical Robotics and Biomechatronics. The TBME Leters publication is aimed at quick turnaround publishing of breakthrough research at the leading edge of rapidly emerging technologies. TBME Letters are short papers (up to 4 printed pages) that are well focused on highly novel and time sensitive scientific and technological advances that have high potential impact in biomedical applications and health care. Our intent is to highlight ideas that have just progressed so as to have shown strong preliminary evidence of feasibility but likely before lengthier validation studies have been performed.
