Threshold-Based Noise Detection and Reduction for Automatic Speech Recognition System in Human-Robot Interactions.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
This work develops a speech recognition system that uses two procedures of proposed noise detection and combined noise reduction. The system can be used in applications that require interactive robots to recognize the contents of speech that includes...

Modeling of dielectric elastomer oscillators for soft biomimetic applications.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Biomimetic, entirely soft robots with animal-like behavior and integrated artificial nervous systems will open up totally new perspectives and applications. However, until now, most presented studies on soft robots were limited to only partly soft de...

Mimicking Biological Synaptic Functionality with an Indium Phosphide Synaptic Device on Silicon for Scalable Neuromorphic Computing.

ACS nano
Neuromorphic or "brain-like" computation is a leading candidate for efficient, fault-tolerant processing of large-scale data as well as real-time sensing and transduction of complex multivariate systems and networks such as self-driving vehicles or I...

Development and characterization of muscle-based actuators for self-stabilizing swimming biorobots.

Lab on a chip
Biorobots that harness the power generated by living muscle cells have recently gained interest as an alternative to traditional mechanical robots. However, robust and reliable operation of these biorobots still remains a challenge. Toward this end, ...

Effect of actuating cell source on locomotion of organic living machines with electrocompacted collagen skeleton.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
In robotics, there is a need for small scale, compliant actuators for use in medical applications or minimally invasive environmental monitoring. Biohybrid devices offer one solution to this need by using muscle cells to actuate compliant scaffolds. ...

The influence of push-off timing in a robotic ankle-foot prosthesis on the energetics and mechanics of walking.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Robotic ankle-foot prostheses that provide net positive push-off work can reduce the metabolic rate of walking for individuals with amputation, but benefits might be sensitive to push-off timing. Simple walking models suggest that preempt...

Silk Fibroin-Based Biomemristors for Bionic Artificial Intelligence Robot Applications.

ACS nano
In the emerging fields of flexible electronics and bioelectronics, protein-based materials have attracted widespread attention due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and processability. Among these materials, silk fibroin (SF), a protein de...

[Independent innovation research, development and transformation of precise bionic repair technology for oral prosthesis].

Beijing da xue xue bao. Yi xue ban = Journal of Peking University. Health sciences
According to the fourth national oral health epidemiological survey report (2018), billions of teeth are lost or missing in China, inducing chewing dysfunction, which is necessary to build physiological function using restorations. Digital technology...
