A revolutionary shift in healthcare has been sparked by the development of 3D printing, propelling us into an era replete with boundless opportunities for personalized DDS (Drug Delivery Systems). Precise control of the kinetics of drug release can b...
5D & 4D printings are an advanced version of 3D printing class and are one of the most revolutionary and powerful fabrication methods used for preparing innovative structures and solid substances using precise additive manufacturing technology. It ca...
RATIONALE: The anterior transpedicular screw (ATPS) fixation in the cervical spine provides the advantages of both anterior and posterior cervical surgery; however, it poses a high risk of screw insertion. In addition, a 3D printed implant can match ...

Small-scale soft robots are attracting increasing interest for visible and potential applications owing to their safety and tolerance resulting from their intrinsic soft bodies or compliant structures. However, it is not sufficient that the soft bodi...
Soft actuators and their sensors have always been separate entities with two distinct roles. The omnidirectional compliance of soft robots thus means that multiple sensors have to be used to sense different modalities in the respective planes of moti...
The stiffness of a soft robot with structural cavities can be regulated by controlling the pressure of a fluid to render predictable changes in mechanical properties. When the soft robot interacts with the environment, the mediating fluid can also be...
The development of highly compliant materials and actuators has enabled the design of soft robots that can be applied in rescue operations, in secure human-robot interactions, to manipulate fragile devices or objects, and for robot locomotion within ...
We report automated fabrication of solid-contact sodium-selective (Na-ISEs) and potassium-selective electrodes (K-ISEs) using a 3D printed liquid handling robot controlled with Internet of Things (IoT) technology. The printing system is affordable an...
Material extrusion is the most widespread additive manufacturing method but its application in end-use products is limited by vulnerability to errors. Humans can detect errors but cannot provide continuous monitoring or real-time correction. Existing...
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) poses challenges for operators in training, with limited robot access on a platform requiring distinct surgical skills. Few simulators exist, and current virtual reality training modules exclude...
