Fabric integrated wearable glove with a twisted string actuator for manual handling tasks.

Scientific reports
Wearable robotic gloves with grip-assistive functionality offer a promising solution for high-intensity manual tasks. However, achieving a balance among lightweight design, adequate force generation, and dexterous hand movement in wearable robotic gl...

Sticking the landing: Insect-inspired strategies for safely landing flapping-wing aerial microrobots.

Science robotics
For flying insects, the transition from flight to surface locomotion requires effective touchdown maneuvers that allow stable landings on a variety of surfaces. Landing behaviors of insects are diverse, with some using more controlled flight approach...

Explaining disparities in robot applications among nations and regions: A cross-level lens of cultural tightness-looseness.

PloS one
In this study, we aim to explain the large disparities among countries and regions on industrial robot application in terms of robot density and robot growth. Based on the premise that people in all cultures have the same potential for innovation, we...

Tracking control of robotic manipulator end-effector trajectory based on robust sliding mode method.

PloS one
This paper addresses the precise trajectory tracking of robotic manipulators (RMs) in automation tasks, particularly in hazardous environments. A dynamic model of the end-effector in Cartesian coordinates is developed to represent the system's motion...

Our tools redefine what it means to be us: perceived robotic agency decreases the importance of agency in humanity.

BMC psychology
Past work has primarily focused on how the perception of robotic agency influences human-robot interaction and the evaluation of robotic progress, while overlooking its impact on reconsidering what it means to be human. Drawing on social identity the...

Health Care Social Robots in the Age of Generative AI: Protocol for a Scoping Review.

JMIR research protocols
BACKGROUND: Social robots (SR), sensorimotor machines designed to interact with humans, can help to respond to the increasing demands in the health care sector. To ensure the successful use of this technology, acceptance is paramount. Generative arti...

Review of sEMG for Exoskeleton Robots: Motion Intention Recognition Techniques and Applications.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The global aging trend is becoming increasingly severe, and the demand for life assistance and medical rehabilitation for frail and disabled elderly people is growing. As the best solution for assisting limb movement, guiding limb rehabilitation, and...

The improved extrapolated center of mass enhances the safety of exoskeleton system.

Scientific reports
Maintaining the balance and safety of the exoskeleton human-robot coupling system is a prerequisite for realizing the rehabilitation training function. Therefore, research on the balance of lower limb exoskeleton robots has attracted much attention. ...

Exploring the perceptions and experiences of caregivers with the application of socially assistive robots in dementia care: A systematic review of qualitative studies.

International journal of nursing studies
BACKGROUND: The use of socially assistive robots in dementia care is growing, aimed at improving patient well-being and alleviating caregiver burden. Refining the utilisation of robotic assistance in individuals with dementia is critical, drawing on ...

Exploring cortical excitability in children with cerebral palsy through lower limb robot training based on MI-BCI.

Scientific reports
This study aims to compare brain activity differences under the motor imagery-brain-computer interface (MI-BCI), motor imagery (MI), and resting (REST) paradigms through EEG microstate and functional connectivity (FC) analysis, providing a theoretica...
