INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted spine surgery is increasingly used in clinical work, and the installation of tracers as a key step in robotic surgery has rarely been studied.
OBJECTIVE: Many robotic mitral surgeons utilize right thoracotomy with transthoracic clamping of the aorta, while a smaller number employ a port-only endoscopic approach with endoaortic balloon occlusion of the aorta. We present our technique for a p...

Robot-aided gait training (RAGT) plays a crucial role in providing high-dose and high-intensity task-oriented physical therapy. The human-robot interaction during RAGT remains technically challenging. To achieve this aim, it is necessary to quantify ...
In a partially impaired anthropomorphic hand, maintaining the movement coordination of the robotic digits with the central nervous system (CNS) and natural digits is crucial for robust performance. A challenge in the control perspective of movement c...
The burgeoning complexity of space missions has amplified the research focus on robots that are capable of assisting astronauts in accomplishing tasks within space stations. Nevertheless, these robots grapple with substantial mobility challenges in a...
With the rapid development of origami technology, worm-inspired origami robots have attracted tremendous interest owing to their colourful locomotion behaviours, such as creeping, rolling, climbing and obstacle crossing. In the present study, we aim ...
Recent reports have introduced robotic breast surgery for immediate breast reconstruction with an implant. However, relevant reports of robot-assisted breast reconstruction including capsulectomy are limited. Although capsulectomy lowers risk of caps...

Having to face the challenges posed by a shortage of skilled care workers and an increasing number of older people in need of care, policy makers and economic enterprises perceive care robotics as a promising solution. However, studies have shown tha...
While laparoscopic simulation-based training is a well-established component of general surgery training, no such requirement or standardized curriculum exists for robotic surgery. Furthermore, there is a lack of high-fidelity electrocautery simulati...
