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...
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...
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...
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...
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) ...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
