OBJECTIVE: To describe the first cochlear array insertions using a robot-assisted technique, with different types of straight or precurved electrode arrays, compared with arrays manually inserted into the cochlea.
Robot swarms have, to date, been constructed from artificial materials. Motile biological constructs have been created from muscle cells grown on precisely shaped scaffolds. However, the exploitation of emergent self-organization and functional plast...
The world was unprepared for the COVID-19 pandemic, and recovery is likely to be a long process. Robots have long been heralded to take on dangerous, dull, and dirty jobs, often in environments that are unsuitable for humans. Could robots be used to ...
