As artificial intelligence becomes more sophisticated and robots approach autonomous decision-making, debates about how to assign moral responsibility have gained importance, urgency, and sophistication. Answering Stenseke's (2022a) call for scaffold...
To improve the force/position control performance of robots in contact with the environment, this paper proposes a control scheme comprising dynamic parameter identification, trajectory scaling, and computed-torque control based on adaptive parameter...
The preliminary test results of a novel robotic hand rehabilitation device aimed at treatment for the loss of motor abilities in the fingers and thumb due to stroke are presented. This device has been developed in collaboration with physiotherapists ...
Given the accelerating powers of artificial intelligence (AI), we must equip artificial agents and robots with empathy to prevent harmful and irreversible decisions. Current approaches to artificial empathy focus on its cognitive or performative proc...
PURPOSE: This work proposes a robot-assisted augmented reality (AR) surgical navigation system for mandibular reconstruction. The system accurately superimposes the preoperative osteotomy plan of the mandible and fibula into a real scene. It assists ...
Targeting aging is the future of twenty-first century preventative medicine. Small molecule interventions that promote healthy longevity are known, but few are well-developed and discovery of novel, robust interventions has stagnated. To accelerate l...
BACKGROUND: Although robotic surgery has rapidly spread in pancreatectomy [1], the procedure is performed by the da Vinci™ Surgical System (Intuitive Surgical Inc., CA), the most common surgical robot in the world [2]. We herein present our first exp...
We compared the effectiveness of conventional total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) against robot-assisted total hysterectomy (RAH) in patients with a large uterus. According to the subtype of minimally invasive hysterectomy performed for benign indi...
Single-port (SP) robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RAPN) is a promising new technique. The aim of this study was to compare surgical and oncological outcomes of SP-RAPN to the multi-port (MP) surgical platform. This is a retrospective,...
