Neural networks and robotic microneedles enable autonomous extraction of plant metabolites.

Plant physiology
Plant metabolites comprise a wide range of extremely important chemicals. In many cases, like savory spices, they combine distinctive functional properties-deterrence against herbivory-with an unmistakable flavor. Others have remarkable therapeutic q...

Research on automatic preprocessing equipment of salivary analyte for PCR inspection of coronavirus.

Science progress
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) inspection of salivary analyte is performed by pretreatment, RNA extraction setup, RNA extraction, PCR setup, and the PCR process. However, the pretreatment process is conducted manually, and it is a bottleneck to the ...

Reducing Metabolic Cost During Planetary Ambulation Using Robotic Actuation.

Aerospace medicine and human performance
Current spacesuits are cumbersome and metabolically expensive. The use of robotic actuators could improve extravehicular activity performance. We propose a novel method to quantify the benefit of robotic actuators during planetary ambulation. Using ...

Robotics in Teaching-Learning: But in Nursing?

Nursing science quarterly
In this teaching-learning column, the use of robotic technology is explored as a possible adjunctive assistant to faculty. Given the advances in technology and the imposed restrictions of the recent COVID-19 pandemic, a discussion of using robotic te...

Robotics: Considerations for Practice.

Nursing science quarterly
The term robotics traditionally refers to the utilization of machines to perform a mechanized task or series of tasks automatically. The author in this article traces some ethical precepts from the literature and proposes that future developments inc...

How Could We Know When a Robot was a Moral Patient?

Cambridge quarterly of healthcare ethics : CQ : the international journal of healthcare ethics committees
There is growing interest in machine ethics in the question of whether and under what circumstances an artificial intelligence would deserve moral consideration. This paper explores a particular type of moral status that the author terms psychologica...

The Mandatory Ontology of Robot Responsibility.

Artificial Agents in Natural Moral Communities: A Brief Clarification.

Cambridge quarterly of healthcare ethics : CQ : the international journal of healthcare ethics committees
What exactly is it that makes one morally responsible? Is it a set of facts which can be objectively discerned, or is it something more subjective, a reaction to the agent or context-sensitive interaction? This debate gets raised anew when we encount...

Brief Report: Neuroimaging Endophenotypes of Social Robotic Applications in Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Journal of autism and developmental disorders
A plethora of neuroimaging studies have focused on the discovery of potential neuroendophenotypes useful to understand the etiopathogenesis of autism and predict treatment response. Social robotics has recently been proposed as an effective tool to s...
