An inverted pendulum is a challenging underactuated system characterized by nonlinear behavior. Defining an effective control strategy for such a system is challenging. This paper presents an overview of the IP control system augmented by a comparati...

In this paper, we consider the exponential bipartite synchronization (EBS) problem of fractional-order multilayer signed networks with time-varying delays (FO-MSNT) under random cyber attacks. In contrast to the existing literature, the proposed hybr...
This paper proposes a method for generating dynamic virtual fixtures with real-time 3D image feedback to facilitate human-robot collaboration in medical robotics. Seamless shared control in a dynamic environment, like that of a surgical field, remain...
Robotic surgery started nearly 30 years ago. It has achieved telepresence and the performance of repetitive, precise, and accurate tasks. The "master-slave" robotic system allows control of manipulators by surgeon at distant site. Robotic surgical fi...
Safety during drug administration remains a major concern in nursing, particularly when it comes to calculating doses. The Institut et Haute école de la santé La Source in Lausanne, in partnership with the Avatarion company, has set up a co-developme...
The number of robot-assisted minimally invasive surgeries is increasing annually, together with the need for dedicated and effective training. Surgeons need to learn how to address the novel control modalities of surgical instruments and the loss of ...

The entrustment framework redirects assessment from considering only trainees' competence to decision-making about their readiness to perform clinical tasks independently. Since trainees and supervisors both contribute to entrustment decisions, we ex...
Human instructors fluidly communicate with hand gestures, head and body movements, and facial expressions, but robots rarely leverage these complementary cues. A minimally supervised social robot with such skills could help people exercise and learn ...
This article studies the passive tracking problem of a wearable exoskeleton for lower limb rehabilitation therapy in the face of unmodeled dynamics, interactive friction, disturbance, prescribed performance constraints, and actuator faults. Adaptive ...
