Flying over uneven moving terrain based on optic-flow cues without any need for reference frames or accelerometers.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Feb 26, 2015
Two bio-inspired guidance principles involving no reference frame are presented here and were implemented in a rotorcraft, which was equipped with panoramic optic flow (OF) sensors but (as in flying insects) no accelerometer. To test these two guidan...
A small-scale hyperacute compound eye featuring active eye tremor: application to visual stabilization, target tracking, and short-range odometry.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Feb 25, 2015
In this study, a miniature artificial compound eye (15 mm in diameter) called the curved artificial compound eye (CurvACE) was endowed for the first time with hyperacuity, using similar micro-movements to those occurring in the fly's compound eye. A ...
On extracting design principles from biology: II. Case study-the effect of knee direction on bipedal robot running efficiency.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Feb 2, 2015
Comparing the leg of an ostrich to that of a human suggests an important question to legged robot designers: should a robot's leg joint bend in the direction of running ('forwards') or opposite ('backwards')? Biological studies cannot answer this que...
On extracting design principles from biology: I. Method-General answers to high-level design questions for bioinspired robots.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Feb 2, 2015
When millions of years of evolution suggest a particular design solution, we may be tempted to abandon traditional design methods and copy the biological example. However, biological solutions do not often translate directly into the engineering doma...
Confined swimming of bio-inspired microrobots in rectangular channels.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Feb 2, 2015
Controlled swimming of bio-inspired microrobots in confined spaces needs to be understood well for potential use in medical applications in conduits and vessels inside the body. In this study, experimental and computational studies are performed for ...
A bioinspired multi-modal flying and walking robot.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Jan 19, 2015
With the aim to extend the versatility and adaptability of robots in complex environments, a novel multi-modal flying and walking robot is presented. The robot consists of a flying wing with adaptive morphology that can perform both long distance fli...
A comparative study of family-specific protein-ligand complex affinity prediction based on random forest approach.
Journal of computer-aided molecular design
Dec 20, 2014
The assessment of binding affinity between ligands and the target proteins plays an essential role in drug discovery and design process. As an alternative to widely used scoring approaches, machine learning methods have also been proposed for fast pr...
Active-learning strategies in computer-assisted drug discovery.
Drug discovery today
Dec 9, 2014
High-throughput compound screening is time and resource consuming, and considerable effort is invested into screening compound libraries, profiling, and selecting the most promising candidates for further testing. Active-learning methods assist the s...
Design and control of the MINDWALKER exoskeleton.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Oct 30, 2014
Powered exoskeletons can empower paraplegics to stand and walk. Actively controlled hip ab/adduction (HAA) is needed for weight shift and for lateral foot placement to support dynamic balance control and to counteract disturbances in the frontal plan...
A novel robotic platform for laser-assisted transurethral surgery of the prostate.
IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
Sep 17, 2014
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is the most common pathology afflicting ageing men. The gold standard for the surgical treatment of BPH is transurethral resection of the prostate. The laser-assisted transurethral surgical treatment of BPH is recen...
