BACKGROUND: In order to meet the kinematic requirements of large range of motion, payload, and stiffness of Intra-Operative Radiation Therapy robots, a 6-degree-of-freedom (DOF) parallel platform (Stewart-Gough mechanism) is introduced and a dimensio...
Gait analysis is crucial for diagnosing and monitoring various healthcare conditions, but traditional marker-based motion capture (MoCap) systems require expensive equipment, extensive setup, and trained personnel, limiting their accessibility in cli...
Accurate description of individual bone kinematics is essential for understanding individual foot and ankle joint function and interactions. While invasive and noninvasive techniques, including robotic simulators, have advanced the direct measurement...
Despite remarkable progress in robotic exoskeletons, exoskeletons are still far from matching human-level guidance and locomotion performance in gait training or movement enhancement. A desirable exoskeleton would first provide a standard gait profil...
The periprosthetic acetabular osteotomy (PAO) is a commonly used technique in orthopedics for treating developmental hip dysplasia and hip dislocation, as the most effective treatment for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). However, performing ...
The design of continuum robots often involves a dilemma between flexibility and stiffness, where increased flexibility may reduce stiffness and control precision. The human hand achieves both power grasp and precision grasp by leveraging different jo...
A human-shaped robotic hand offers unparalleled versatility and fine motor skills, enabling it to perform a broad spectrum of tasks with precision, power, and robustness. Across the paleontological record and animal kingdom, we see a wide range of al...
