Variable stiffness soft robotic gripper: design, development, and prospects.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
The advent of variable stiffness soft robotic grippers furnishes a conduit for exploration and manipulation within uncharted, non-structured environments. The paper provides a comprehensive review of the necessary technologies for the configuration d...

A Wearable Co-Located Neural-Mechanical Signal Sensing Device for Simultaneous Bimodal Muscular Activity Detection.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
The co-located and concurrent measurement of both muscular neural activity and muscular deformation is considered necessary in many applications, such as medical robotics, assistive exoskeletons and muscle function evaluations. Nevertheless, conventi...

A Semi-Autonomous Stereotactic Brain Biopsy Robotic System With Enhanced Surgical Safety and Surgeon-Robot Collaboration.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Despite benefits brought by recent neurosurgical robots, surgical safety and surgeon-robot collaboration remain significant challenges. In this article, we analyze and address these problems in the context of brain biopsy, by proposing a s...

Clustering Methods for Vibro-Acoustic Sensing Features as a Potential Approach to Tissue Characterisation in Robot-Assisted Interventions.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the feature extraction methods applied to vibro-acoustic signals (VA signals) in the context of robot-assisted interventions. The primary objective is to extract valuable information from these signal...

Full robotic cholecystectomy: first worldwide experiences with HUGO RAS surgical platform.

ANZ journal of surgery
BACKGROUND: The Hugo RAS™ system (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA), approved for gynaecological and urological procedures, has been recently certified for the use in few general surgeries. Only bariatric and colorectal procedures have been described ...

Unavoidable social contagion of false memory from robots to humans.

The American psychologist
Many of us interact with voice- or text-based conversational agents daily, but these conversational agents may unintentionally retrieve misinformation from human knowledge databases, confabulate responses on their own, or purposefully spread disinfor...

Oscillatory Responses to Tactile Stimuli of Different Intensity.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Tactile perception encompasses several submodalities that are realized with distinct sensory subsystems. The processing of those submodalities and their interactions remains understudied. We developed a paradigm consisting of three types of touch tun...

Joint Reconfiguration after Failure for Performing Emblematic Gestures in Humanoid Receptionist Robot.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
This study proposed a strategy for a quick fault recovery response when an actuator failure problem occurred while a humanoid robot with 7-DOF anthropomorphic arms was performing a task with upper body motion. The objective of this study was to devel...

Oncologic outcomes of robot-assisted laparoscopy versus conventional laparoscopy for the treatment of apparent early-stage endometrioid adenocarcinoma of the uterus.

Gynecologic oncology
OBJECTIVE: To compare long-term oncologic outcomes in patients with clinically uterine-confined endometrioid endometrial cancer who underwent surgical staging with robot-assisted (RA) versus conventional laparoscopy.
