Exploring the evolutionary adaptations of the unique seahorse tail's muscle architecture through modelling and robotic prototyping.

Journal of the Royal Society, Interface
Seahorses possess a unique tail muscle architecture that enables efficient grasping and anchoring onto objects. This prehensile ability is crucial for their survival, as it allows them to resist currents, cling to mates during reproduction and remain...

A controller of robot constant force grinding based on proximal policy optimization algorithm.

PloS one
In order to solve the problems of high dependence on the accuracy of environmental model and poor environmental adaptability of traditional control methods, the robot constant force grinding controller that based on proximal policy optimization was p...

Empowering artificial muscles with intelligence: recent advancements in materials, designs, and manufacturing.

Materials horizons
Drawing on foundational knowledge of the structure and function of biological muscles, artificial muscles have made remarkable strides over the past decade, achieving performance levels comparable to those of their natural counterparts. However, they...

Robot-assisted gait training for individuals with severe acquired brain injury: a scoping review.

Brain injury
INTRODUCTION: Early out-of-bed mobilization is recommended for individuals with severe acquired brain injury and impaired consciousness to promote recovery. Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) utilizes robotic assistance to facilitate neuroplastic ch...

Development and Validation of the Novel Exergame-Integrated Robotic Stepper Device for Seated Lower Limb Rehabilitation.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Seated rehabilitation is essential in early-stage recovery for patients who can sit but cannot stand or walk. Robotic-based lower limb rehabilitation provides precise, task-specific training for recovery, but its application in seated exercises remai...

From Sensors to Care: How Robotic Skin Is Transforming Modern Healthcare-A Mini Review.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In recent years, robotics has made notable progress, becoming an essential component of daily life by facilitating complex tasks and enhancing human experiences. While most robots have traditionally featured hard surfaces, the growing demand for more...

Effects of exoskeleton rehabilitation robot training on neuroplasticity and lower limb motor function in patients with stroke.

BMC neurology
BACKGROUND: Lower limb exoskeleton rehabilitation robot is a new technology to improve the lower limb motor function of stroke patients. Recovery of motor function after stroke is closely related to neuroplasticity in the motor cortex and associated ...

Performance Evaluation of Monocular Markerless Pose Estimation Systems for Industrial Exoskeletons.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Industrial exoskeletons (a.k.a. wearable robots) have been developed to reduce musculoskeletal fatigue and work injuries. Human joint kinematics and human-robot alignment are important measurements in understanding the effects of industrial exoskelet...

Visuomotor Navigation for Embodied Robots With Spatial Memory and Semantic Reasoning Cognition.

IEEE transactions on neural networks and learning systems
The fundamental prerequisite for embodied agents to make intelligent decisions lies in autonomous cognition. Typically, agents optimize decision-making by leveraging extensive spatiotemporal information from episodic memory. Concurrently, they utiliz...

The Impact of Telepresence Robots on Family Caregivers and Residents in Long-Term Care.

International journal of environmental research and public health
Telepresence robots can enhance social connection and support person-centered care in long-term care (LTC) homes. This study evaluates their impact in facilitating virtual visits between family caregivers and older residents in Canadian LTC homes. Te...
