Skin-like planar tactile sensors have achieved adaptive gripping, in-hand manipulation, and human-machine interaction but remain limited in tasks requiring active environmental interaction and robustness against large mechanical perturbations. Inspir...
AIM: Orthopedic surgery patients frequently delay early rehabilitation due to postoperative discomfort. This is especially true for younger patients with anterior cruciate ligament injuries who are eager to return to sports after discharge. Despite t...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence-powered conversational agents have immense potential to provide social companionship and support for older adults. However, the deployment of large language model (LLM)-based conversational robots for seniors faces...

We report the first 2 cases of fully robotic recipient left graft living donor liver transplants, demonstrating the technical feasibility of using left grafts, accompanied by a video. We anticipate that making the donor selection criteria more libera...
Sensorimotor functions, the seamless integration of sensing, decision-making, and actuation, are fundamental for robots to interact with their environments. Inspired by biological systems, the incorporation of soft materials and devices into robotics...
Synthetic cells (SCs), developed through bottom-up synthetic biology, hold great potential for biomedical applications, with the promise of replacing malfunctioning natural cells and treating diseases with spatiotemporal control. Currently, most SC s...

In poultry farming, robotics is represented by robotic models which perform different functions. Among these functions, ambience is one of the most critical, as the aviary is an artificial environment which needs to present all the necessary conditio...
Service robots commonly deliver objects through direct handovers, assuming users are fully attentive. However, in real-world scenarios, users are often occupied with other tasks. This paper investigates how user attentiveness affects preferences betw...
In this paper, we present the Colonial Bacterial Memetic Algorithm (CBMA), an advanced evolutionary optimization approach for robotic applications. CBMA extends the Bacterial Memetic Algorithm by integrating Cultural Algorithms and co-evolutionary dy...
