Force-Sensorless Identification and Classification of Tissue Biomechanical Parameters for Robot-Assisted Palpation.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The implementation of robotic systems for minimally invasive surgery and medical procedures is an active topic of research in recent years. One of the most common procedures is the palpation of soft tissues to identify their mechanical characteristic...

Body weight-supported gait training for patients with spinal cord injury: a network meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials.

Scientific reports
Different body weight-supported gait-training strategies are available for improving ambulation in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). These include body weight-supported overground training (BWSOGT), body weight-supported treadmill training (...

Biosensors in Rehabilitation and Assistance Robotics.

Biosensors
Robotic developments in the field of rehabilitation and assistance have seen a significant increase in the last few years [...].

A robot for overground physical human-robot interaction experiments.

PloS one
Many anticipated physical human-robot interaction (pHRI) applications in the near future are overground tasks such as walking assistance. For investigating the biomechanics of human movement during pHRI, this work presents Ophrie, a novel interactive...

Manta Ray Inspired Soft Robot Fish with Tough Hydrogels as Structural Elements.

ACS applied materials & interfaces
The design of soft robots capable of navigation underwater has received tremendous research interest due to the robots' versatile applications in marine explorations. Inspired by marine animals such as jellyfish, scientists have developed various sof...

Structural Optimisation and Design of a Cable-Driven Hyper-Redundant Manipulator for Confined Semi-Structured Environments.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Structural optimisation of robotic manipulators is critical for any manipulator used in confined semi-structured environments, such as in agriculture. Many robotic manipulators utilised in semi-structured environments retain the same characteristics ...

Historical evolution and new trends for soil-intruder interaction modeling.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Soil is a crucial resource for life on Earth. Every activity, whether natural or man-made, that interacts with the sub or deep soil can affect the land at large scales (e.g. geological risks). Understanding such interactions can help identify more su...

Ferrobotic swarms enable accessible and adaptable automated viral testing.

Nature
Expanding our global testing capacity is critical to preventing and containing pandemics. Accordingly, accessible and adaptable automated platforms that in decentralized settings perform nucleic acid amplification tests resource-efficiently are requi...

DIY liquid handling robots for integrated STEM education and life science research.

PloS one
Automation has played a key role in improving the safety, accuracy, and efficiency of manufacturing and industrial processes and has the potential to greatly increase throughput in the life sciences. However, the lack of accessible entry-point automa...
