Attentional responses in toddlers: A protocol for assessing the impact of a robotic animated animal and a real dog.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Attentional processes in toddlers are characterized by a state of alertness in which they focus their waking state for short periods. It is essential to develop assessment and attention stimulation protocols from an early age to improve t...

An ultralight, tiny, flexible six-axis force/torque sensor enables dexterous fingertip manipulations.

Nature communications
Multi-dimensional mechanoreceptors are crucial for both humans and robots, providing omnidirectional force/torque senses to ensure dexterous and precise manipulations. Current six-axis force/torque sensors are bulky, heavy, and rigid with complicated...

The effects of robot anthropomorphic characteristics on employees' anti-robot sabotage.

Scientific reports
Robot anthropomorphic characteristics have not only been widely manifested in production practices, but their positive effects on human-robot interaction have also been investigated and validated in academic research. Nonetheless, existing research h...

Experimental demonstration of third-order memristor-based artificial sensory nervous system for neuro-inspired robotics.

Nature communications
The sensory nervous system in animals enables the perception of external stimuli. Developing an artificial sensory nervous system has been widely conducted to realize neuro-inspired robots capable of effectively responding to external stimuli. Howeve...

Chemotactic navigation in robotic swimmers via reset-free hierarchical reinforcement learning.

Nature communications
Microorganisms have evolved diverse strategies to propel themselves in viscous fluids, navigate complex environments, and exhibit taxis in response to stimuli. This has inspired the development of miniature robots, where artificial intelligence (AI) ...

Real-time human-robot interaction and service provision using hybrid intelligent computing framework.

PloS one
Human-robot interaction has gained significant attention in various domains, including healthcare, customer service, and industrial automation. High computational cost, inefficient service matching, and elevated failure rates in dynamic service conte...

OpenExo: An open-source modular exoskeleton to augment human function.

Science robotics
Although the field of wearable robotic exoskeletons is rapidly expanding, there are several barriers to entry that discourage many from pursuing research in this area, ultimately hindering growth. Chief among these is the lengthy and costly developme...

Photocatalytic microrobots for treating bacterial infections deep within sinuses.

Science robotics
Microrobotic techniques are promising for treating biofilm infections located deep within the human body. However, the presence of highly viscous pus presents a formidable biological barrier, severely restricting targeted and minimally invasive treat...

Adaptive fixed-time fault-tolerant trajectory tracking control for disturbed robotic manipulator.

PloS one
This article introduces a fixed-time trajectory control method for robotic manipulators, aimed at improving trajectory precision despite external disturbances, actuator faults, and uncertainties. Initially, a fast fixed-time nonsingular terminal slid...

Emerging technologies in airway management: a narrative review of intubation robotics and anatomical structure recognition algorithms.

Biomedical engineering online
In recent years, the medical field has seen significant advancements in the field of robotics and artificial intelligence (AI). However, many healthcare professionals still find these technologies unfamiliar and complex, especially regarding their us...
