BACKGROUND: Existing assistive technologies attempt to mimic biological functions through advanced mechatronic designs. In some occasions, the information processing demands for such systems require substantial information bandwidth and convoluted co...
We present a 3D deep learning framework that can generate a complete cranial model using a defective one. The Boolean subtraction between these two models generates the geometry of the implant required for surgical reconstruction. There is little or ...
Robotics is a forward-looking discipline. Attention is focused on identifying the next grand challenges. In an applied field such as medical robotics, however, it is important to plan the future based on a clear understanding of what the research com...

Machine learning and deep learning frameworks have been presented as a substitute for lengthy computational analysis, such as finite element analysis, computational fluid dynamics, and fluid-structure interaction. In this study, our objective was to ...
Individuals who have lost the use of their hands because of amputation or spinal cord injury can use prosthetic hands to restore their independence. A dexterous prosthesis requires the acquisition of control signals that drive the movements of the ro...
Transhumeral percutaneous osseointegrated prostheses provide upper-extremity amputees with increased range of motion, more natural movement patterns, and enhanced proprioception. However, direct skeletal attachment of the endoprosthesis elevates the ...
In order to increase the probability of having a successful cataract post-surgery, the customisation of the haptic design of the intraocular lens (IOL) according to the characteristics of the patient is recommended. In this study, we present two pred...
