Face mediated human-robot interaction for remote medical examination.

Scientific reports
Realtime visual feedback from consequences of actions is useful for future safety-critical human-robot interaction applications such as remote physical examination of patients. Given multiple formats to present visual feedback, using face as feedback...

Contact Compliance Based Visual Feedback for Tool Alignment in Robot Assisted Bone Drilling.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In recent decades, robot-assisted surgery has been proven superior at providing more accurate outcomes than the conventional one, particularly in minimally invasive procedures. However, there are still limitations to these kinds of surgical robots. A...

Increasing motor cortex activation during grasping via novel robotic mirror hand therapy: a pilot fNIRS study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Mirror therapy (MT) has been used for functional recovery of the affected hand by providing the mirrored image of the unaffected hand movement, which induces neural activation of the cortical hemisphere contralateral to the affected hand....

Mechanosensory Hairs and Hair-like Structures in the Animal Kingdom: Specializations and Shared Functions Serve to Inspire Technology Applications.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Biological mechanosensation has been a source of inspiration for advancements in artificial sensory systems. Animals rely on sensory feedback to guide and adapt their behaviors and are equipped with a wide variety of sensors that carry stimulus infor...

Semi-Remote Gait Assistance Interface: A Joystick with Visual Feedback Capabilities for Therapists.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The constant growth of pathologies affecting human mobility has led to developing of different assistive devices to provide physical and cognitive assistance. Smart walkers are a particular type of these devices since they integrate navigation system...

Haptic and Visual Feedback Assistance for Dual-Arm Robot Teleoperation in Surface Conditioning Tasks.

IEEE transactions on haptics
Contact driven tasks, such as surface conditioning operations (wiping, polishing, sanding, etc.), are difficult to program in advance to be performed autonomously by a robotic system, specially when the objects involved are moving. In many applicatio...

Development of a Real-Time Human-Robot Collaborative System Based on 1 kHz Visual Feedback Control and Its Application to a Peg-in-Hole Task.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In this research, we focused on Human-Robot collaboration. There were two goals: (1) to develop and evaluate a real-time Human-Robot collaborative system, and (2) to achieve concrete tasks such as collaborative peg-in-hole using the developed system....

Ultra-sensitive and resilient compliant strain gauges for soft machines.

Nature
Soft machines are a promising design paradigm for human-centric devices and systems required to interact gently with their environment. To enable soft machines to respond intelligently to their surroundings, compliant sensory feedback mechanisms are ...

Neurodynamic modeling of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
This manuscript describes neuromechanical modeling of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster in the form of a hexapod robot, Drosophibot, and an accompanying dynamic simulation. Drosophibot is a testbed for real-time dynamical neural controllers model...

Robotic Light Touch Assists Human Balance Control During Maximum Forward Reaching.

Human factors
OBJECTIVE: We investigated how light interpersonal touch (IPT) provided by a robotic system supports human individuals performing a challenging balance task compared to IPT provided by a human partner.
