Biofabrication of Living Actuators.

Annual review of biomedical engineering
The impact of tissue engineering has extended beyond a traditional focus in medicine to the rapidly growing realm of biohybrid robotics. Leveraging living actuators as functional components in machines has been a central focus of this field, generati...

HDR vision sensor with neuro-memristive skin detection for edge computing.

Journal of the Optical Society of America. A, Optics, image science, and vision
Human skin classification is an essential task for several machine vision applications such as human-machine interfaces, people/object tracking, and classification. In this paper, we describe a hybrid CMOS/memristor vision sensor architecture embeddi...

Force/position tracking control of fracture reduction robot based on nonlinear disturbance observer and neural network.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: For the fracture reduction robot, the position tracking accuracy and compliance are affected by dynamic loads from muscle stretching, uncertainties in robot dynamics models, and various internal and external disturbances.

ERegPose: An explicit regression based 6D pose estimation for snake-like wrist-type surgical instruments.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Accurately estimating the 6D pose of snake-like wrist-type surgical instruments is challenging due to their complex kinematics and flexible design.

Design and Stability Analysis of an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS)-Based Pacemaker Controller in MATLAB Simulink.

Journal of long-term effects of medical implants
We present the design and stability analysis of an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS)-based controller of a pacemaker in MATLAB Simulink. ANFIS uses learning and speed properties of fuzzy and neural networks. Based on body states and prepr...

Customized Series Elastic Actuator for a Safe and Compliant Human-Robot Interaction: Design and Characterization.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
When it comes to robotic-mediated rehabilitation it is mandatory to design a system that guarantees a safe and compliant human-machine interaction. Dealing with rehabilitative upper limb exoskeletons, Series Elastic Actuators offer a potential soluti...

Assessing Mode-Switching Strategies for Assistive Robotic Manipulators Using a Preliminary Version of the Novel Non-invasive Tongue-Computer Interface.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The inductive tongue-computer interface allows individuals with tetraplegia to control assistive devices. However, controlling assistive robotic arms often requires more than 14 different commands, which cannot always fit into a single control layout...

228 × 304 200-mW lidar based on a single-point global-depth d-ToF sensor and RGB-guided super-resolution neural network.

Optics letters
The cutting-edge imaging system exhibits low output resolution and high power consumption, presenting challenges for the RGB-D fusion algorithm. In practical scenarios, aligning the depth map resolution with the RGB image sensor is a crucial requirem...

Dentronics: tooth cleaning with a tactile collaborative robot - an in vitro proof of concept.

International journal of computerized dentistry
AIM: The aim of the present study was to compare the performance of a tactile collaborative robot programmed by a dental professional (DP) with that of a DP in the removal of surrogate plaque in vitro.

A novel method for conformity assessment testing of mechanical ventilators for post-market surveillance purposes.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
BACKGROUND: Mechanical ventilators are medical devices used in intensive care units when patients are in need of mechanical aid to facilitate the process of breathing. As the function of breathing is the exchange of gases, the mechanical ventilator t...
