BACKGROUND: Papillary fibroelastomas (PFEs) are a rare subtype of benign primary cardiac tumours, which are most commonly found on the aortic valve. Although median sternotomy is still used frequently there has been different attempts to remove the a...
Laparoscopic nephroureterectomy (LNU) has become popular in treating upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) and an emerging trend was observed in robotic approaches. Therefore, we compared robot-assisted radical nephroureterectomy (RANU) an...
Hand detection is a crucial technology for space human-robot interaction (SHRI), and the awareness of hand identities is particularly critical. However, most advanced works have three limitations: 1) the low detection accuracy of small-size objects; ...
How to generate anthropomorphic reaching movement remains a challenging problem in service robots and human motor function repair/reconstruction equipment. However, there is no universally accepted computational model in the literature for reproducin...
The distributed, real-time algorithms for multiple pursuers cooperating to capture an evader are developed in an obstacle-free and an obstacle-cluttered environment, respectively. The developed algorithm is based on the idea of planning the control a...
Human-robot co-transportation allows for a human and a robot to perform an object transportation task cooperatively on a shared environment. This range of applications raises a great number of theoretical and practical challenges arising mainly from ...
The multipoint dynamic aggregation (MPDA) problem of the multirobot system is of great significance for its real-world applications such as bush fire elimination. The problem is to design the optimal plan for a set of heterogeneous robots to complete...
Thanks to their strong maneuverability and high load capacity, car-like robots with non-holonomic constraints are often used in logistics to improve efficiency. However, it is difficult to plan a safe and smooth optimal path in real time on the restr...
The recent advancements in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) as well as increasing demand for vehicular safety has led to significant progressions in Autonomous Vehicle (AV) technology. Perception and Localisation are major operations th...
This paper presents a navigation approach for autonomous agricultural robots based on LiDAR data. This navigation approach is divided into two parts: a line finding algorithm and a control algorithm. The paper proposes several line finding algorithms...
