Heterogeneity of Attitudes toward Robots in Healthcare among the Chinese Public: A Latent Profile Analysis.

International journal of environmental research and public health
Attitudes are deemed critical psychological variables that can determine end users' acceptance and adoption of robots. This study explored the heterogeneity of the Chinese public's attitudes toward robots in healthcare and examined demographic charac...

Mechanically controlled robotic gripper with bistability for fast and adaptive grasping.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
This paper presents a novel bistable gripper inspired by the closure motion found in the jaw of a hummingbird. With a bistable characteristic, the robotic gripper can grasp objects rapidly without applying continuous external force. The bistable grip...

Towards a simultaneously speaking bilingual robot: Primary study on the effect of gender and pitch of the robot's voice.

PloS one
With fast and reliable international transportation, more people with different language backgrounds can interact now. As a result, the need for communicative agents fluent in several languages to assist those people is highlighted. The high cost of ...

When a Robot Is Your Teammate.

Topics in cognitive science
Creating effective teamwork between humans and robots involves not only addressing their performance as a team but also sustaining the quality and sense of unity among teammates, also known as cohesion. This paper explores the research problem of: ho...

Comparing Thoracoscopic and Robotic Lobectomy Using a Nationally Representative Database.

The American surgeon
BACKGROUND: Studies of robotic lobectomy (Robot-L) have been performed using data from high-volume, specialty centers which may not be generalizable. The purpose of this study was to compare mortality, length of stay (LOS), and cost between Robot-L a...

Bio-Inspired Transparent Soft Jellyfish Robot.

Soft robotics
Jellyfish are among the widely distributed nature creatures that can effectively control the fluidic flow around their transparent soft body, thus achieving movements in the water and camouflage in the surrounding environments. Till now, it remains a...

Older home care clients' experiences of digitalisation: A qualitative study of experiences of the use of robot for medicines management.

Scandinavian journal of caring sciences
BACKGROUND: Home-living older people with multiple medications are a key target group for medication robots. However, our understanding of how robots for medicines management work in older people's daily lives is limited.

Same-Day Discharge After Robot-Assisted Partial Nephrectomy: Is It Worth It?

Journal of endourology
Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) has traditionally been performed as an inpatient procedure; however, recent studies have suggested the feasibility of same-day discharge (SDD) after RAPN. We aimed to evaluate the safety and cost-effectivene...

The efficacy of "TiRobot"orthopaedic robot-assisted VS conventional fluoroscopic percutaneous screw fixation of the sacroiliac joint.

International orthopaedics
PURPOSE: This study is to compare the precision and safety of the orthopaedic robot with conventional fluoroscopy for assisted percutaneous sacroiliac joint screw implantation.
