A major advantage of surgical robots is that they can reduce the invasiveness of a procedure by enabling the clinician to manipulate tools as they would in open surgery but through small incisions in the body. Neurosurgery has yet to benefit from thi...

This article is about vibration-damping robotic eating devices designed for use by people who have difficulty in eating due to hand tremors due to neuromuscular system disorder. The robotic eating device has two degrees of freedom (DoF). It contains ...
The preliminary test results of a novel robotic hand rehabilitation device aimed at treatment for the loss of motor abilities in the fingers and thumb due to stroke are presented. This device has been developed in collaboration with physiotherapists ...
Designing efficient and labor-saving prosthetic hands requires powerful hand gesture recognition algorithms that can achieve high accuracy with limited complexity and latency. In this context, the paper proposes a Compact Transformer-based Hand Gestu...
Bimanual object manipulation involves using both hands to interact with objects in the environment, and the process requires the central nervous system to process sensory feedback and translate it into motor commands. Although there have been signifi...
We present a novel soft exoskeleton providing active support for hand closing and opening. The main novelty is a different tendon routing, folded laterally on both sides of the hand, and adding clenching forces when the exoskeleton is activated. It i...
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the development of robotic systems for improving the quality of life of individuals of all ages. Specifically, humanoid robots offer advantages in terms of friendliness and ease of use in such app...
The ability to reconstruct the kinematic parameters of hand movement using noninvasive electroencephalography (EEG) is essential for strength and endurance augmentation using exoskeleton/exosuit. For system development, the conventional classificatio...
In a partially impaired anthropomorphic hand, maintaining the movement coordination of the robotic digits with the central nervous system (CNS) and natural digits is crucial for robust performance. A challenge in the control perspective of movement c...
