Abstract
In this paper, the recent advances of sensors incorporated in assistive technologies are presented. Features of conventional sensors are largely electromechanical. However, the last two decades has, due to the move towards digital scholarship, witnessed the emergence of contemporary sensors that incorporate information technology (IT) component. Hence the term mechatronic or mechatronised sensors. Based on the function and of modern assistive devices, a variety of sensors are described with their features and applications. Further improvements and future trends are pointed out and discussed.
