Robotic gaming prototype for upper limb exercise: Effects of age and embodiment on user preferences and movement.

Restorative neurology and neuroscience
BACKGROUND: Effective human-robot interactions in rehabilitation necessitates an understanding of how these should be tailored to the needs of the human. We report on a robotic system developed as a partner on a 3-D everyday task, using a gamified ap...

Novel Wearable Seismocardiography and Machine Learning Algorithms Can Assess Clinical Status of Heart Failure Patients.

Circulation. Heart failure
BACKGROUND: Remote monitoring of patients with heart failure (HF) using wearable devices can allow patient-specific adjustments to treatments and thereby potentially reduce hospitalizations. We aimed to assess HF state using wearable measurements of ...

An In-Vitro Study Comparing the GME Handling of Two Contemporary Oxygenators.

The journal of extra-corporeal technology
Gaseous microemboli (GME) are a potential complication of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Though it is difficult to prove that GME is the only major cause of neurological deficits, it may increase the chance of post-operative cognitive dysfunction if n...

Anchoring like octopus: biologically inspired soft artificial sucker.

Journal of the Royal Society, Interface
This paper presents a robotic anchoring module, a sensorized mechanism for attachment to the environment that can be integrated into robots to enable or enhance various functions such as robot mobility, remaining on location or its ability to manipul...

Adaptive Neural Network Control of a Flapping Wing Micro Aerial Vehicle With Disturbance Observer.

IEEE transactions on cybernetics
The research of this paper works out the attitude and position control of the flapping wing micro aerial vehicle (FWMAV). Neural network control with full state and output feedback are designed to deal with uncertainties in this complex nonlinear FWM...

Design and Validation of a Biosensor Implantation Capsule Robot.

Journal of biomechanical engineering
We have proposed a long-term, noninvasive, nonrestrictive method of delivering and implanting a biosensor within the body via a swallowable implantation capsule robot (ICR). The design and preliminary validation of the ICR's primary subsystem-the sen...
