dc.description.abstractWith the rapid advancement of technology, assistive robotic entities have arisen as indispensable instruments within diverse Human-Robot Interaction (HRI)-based health-care applications. By integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) into these assistive robotic entities, they gain the capacity to autonomously perceive, engage in sophisticated reasoning, and execute actions within highly dynamic and complex environments. In light of these impressive achievements, this paper highlights a three-stage exploratory overview of the literature on the remarkable advancement of assistive robotics in HRI-based health-care applications. The first stage initiates an assessment of assistive robotics spanning historical epochs from ancient to modern times. Following this, the second stage comprehensively explores assistive robotics investigations in the realm of HRI-based health-care with its four sub-fields including rehabilitation, geriatric-care, pediatric-care, and nursing. Finally, the third stage entails a thorough analysis of the common challenges encountered in these pertinent investigations and provides a set of recommendations. This comprehensive paper not only provides an abundance of studies for each concept, method, and application in HRI, but it also presents their theoretical foundations, strengths, gaps, critical challenges, and recommendations. The results of the conducted exploratory overview shed light on the noteworthy prominence of assistive robotic entities within the HRI-based health-care field. The acquired findings emphasize the positive impact of such entities on human health, affirming their pivotal role in contributing to the advancement and effectiveness of health-care interventions. Furthermore, this paper provides an opportunity for scholars and researchers actively engaged in the pertinent field to obtain comprehensive additional insights, serving as a guiding resource for their academic endeavors.
