It has been shown that human-like hopping can be achieved by muscle reflex control in neuromechanical simulations. However, it is unclear if this concept is applicable and feasible for controlling a real robot. This paper presents a low-cost two-segm...
After millions of years of evolution, fishes have been endowed with agile swimming ability to accomplish various behaviourally relevant tasks. In comparison, robotic fish are still quite poor swimmers. One of the unique challenges facing robotic fish...
Physical assistant robots improve the user's ability to walk. However, they also potentially affect recovery motion following tripping. The assist algorithm should not interfere with the recovery motion, and should enhance the ability of the user to ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Motion artifacts are a frequent source of image degradation in the clinical application of MR imaging (MRI). Here we implement and validate an MRI motion-artifact correction method using a multiscale fully convolutional neural...
Soft spherical tensegrity robots are novel steerable mobile robotic platforms that are compliant, lightweight, and robust. The geometry of these robots is suitable for rolling locomotion, and they achieve this motion by properly deforming their struc...
Robots based on simplified or abstracted biomechanical concepts can be a useful tool for investigating how and why animals move the way they do. In this paper we present an extremely simple quadruped robot, which is able to walk with no form of softw...
Metal objects in the human heart such as implanted pacemakers frequently lead to heavy artifacts in reconstructed CT image volumes. Due to cardiac motion, common metal artifact reduction methods which assume a static object during CT acquisition are ...
Soft climbing robots have attracted much attention of researchers for their potential applications on the wall or inside the tube. However, making a soft robot climb on the outer surface of a rod or tube by agile and efficient motion has long been a ...
