Precision object handling and manipulation require the accurate positioning of industrial robots. A common practice for performing end effector positioning is to read joint angles and use industrial robot forward kinematics (FKs). However, industrial...
The invention of inertial measurement units allowed the construction of sensors suitable for human motion tracking that are more affordable than expensive optical motion capture systems, but there are a few factors influencing their accuracy, such as...
Robot-assisted therapy can effectively treat upper extremity (UE) paralysis in patients who experience a stroke. Presently, UE, as a training item, is selected according to the severity of the paralysis based on a clinician's experience. The possibil...
Brain abscess is rare in clinic, the reported incidence is only 0.4 to 0.90 per 100,000 population, and most of them have a history of prodromal infection. Headache and fever are the most common clinical symptoms, and only a few are accompanied by ne...
We report the world's first case series of ten robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) procedures performed with the Dexter robotic system (Distalmotion SA, Épalinges, Switzerland). The Dexter system is an open robotic platform that integrates in...
To investigate the perioperative outcomes of patients who underwent robot-assisted thoracoscopic (RATS) segmentectomy for identifying the intersegmental plane (ISP) by improved modified inflation-deflation (MID) combined with near-infrared fluorescen...
PURPOSE: To report the trends, predictors, and patient outcomes of same-day discharge (SDD) versus non-SDD for robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP).

What is required to allow an artificial agent to engage in rich, human-like interactions with people? I argue that this will require capturing the process by which humans continually create and renegotiate 'bargains' with each other. These hidden neg...

Liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) are active soft matter-based materials with strong stimulus responsiveness and reversible, large-shape morphing capabilities. LCEs have demonstrated broad and growing applications in soft robotics, wearable devices, a...
