StairNet: visual recognition of stairs for human-robot locomotion.

Biomedical engineering online
Human-robot walking with prosthetic legs and exoskeletons, especially over complex terrains, such as stairs, remains a significant challenge. Egocentric vision has the unique potential to detect the walking environment prior to physical interactions,...

Effectiveness and safety of robot-assisted versus fluoroscopy-assisted cortical bone trajectory screw instrumentation in spinal surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Journal of robotic surgery
Robot-assisted (RA) technology has been shown to be a safe aid in spine surgery, this meta-analysis aims to compare surgical parameters and clinical indexes between robot-assisted cortical bone trajectory (CBT) and fluoroscopy-assisted (FA) cortical ...

Immersive participatory design of assistive robots to support older adults.

Ergonomics
Assistive robots have the potential to support independence, enhance safety, and lower healthcare costs for older adults, as well as alleviate the demands of their care partners. However, ensuring that these robots will effectively and reliably addre...

Dexterous helical magnetic robot for improved endovascular access.

Science robotics
Treating vascular diseases in the brain requires access to the affected region inside the body. This is usually accomplished through a minimally invasive technique that involves the use of long, thin devices, such as wires and tubes, that are manuall...

Human-scale navigation of magnetic microrobots in hepatic arteries.

Science robotics
Using external actuation sources to navigate untethered drug-eluting microrobots in the bloodstream offers great promise in improving the selectivity of drug delivery, especially in oncology, but the current field forces are difficult to maintain wit...

The weight of BMI in impacting postoperative and oncologic outcomes in pancreaticoduodenectomy is attenuated by a robotic approach.

Journal of robotic surgery
This study was undertaken to observe the effect of body mass index (BMI) on perioperative outcomes and survival when comparing robotic vs 'open' pancreaticoduodenectomy. With IRB approval, we prospectively followed 505 consecutive patients who underw...

Stabilization and tracking control of underactuated ball and beam system using metaheuristic optimization based TID-F and PIDD2-PI control schemes.

PloS one
In this paper, we propose two different control strategies for the position control of the ball of the ball and beam system (BBS). The first control strategy uses the proportional integral derivative-second derivative with a proportional integrator P...

Updating design guidelines for cognitive ergonomics in human-centred collaborative robotics applications: An expert survey.

Applied ergonomics
Within the framework of Industry 5.0, human factors are essential for enhancing the work conditions and well-being of operators interacting with even more advanced and smart manufacturing systems and machines and increasing production performances. N...

Unlocking human-robot synergy: The power of intent communication in warehouse robotics.

Applied ergonomics
As autonomous mobile robots (AMR) are introduced into workspace environments shared with people, effective human-robot communication is critical to the prevention of injury while maintaining a high level of productivity. This research presents an emp...

Single-Port Multiport Robot-Assisted Partial Nephrectomy: A Meta-Analysis.

Journal of endourology
Several centers have reported their experience with single-port robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (SP-RAPN); however, it is uncertain if utilization of this platform represents an improvement in outcomes compared to multiport robot-assisted partial...
