A pack hunting strategy for heterogeneous robots in rescue operations.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
This study focuses on improving coordination among teams of heterogeneous robots, including unmanned aerial vehicles and unmanned ground vehicles, drawing inspiration from natural pack-hunting strategies. The goal is to increase the effectiveness of ...

Research on boundary control of vehicle-mounted flexible manipulator based on partial differential equations.

PloS one
Vehicle-mounted flexible robotic arms (VFRAs) are crucial in enhancing operational capabilities in sectors where human intervention is limited due to accessibility or safety concerns, such as hazardous environments or precision surgery. This paper in...

A hierarchy category of socially assistive robots' functions: Insights from older adults.

Assistive technology : the official journal of RESNA
Socially assistive robots (SARs) are increasingly recognized for their potential in helping older adults age in place. Effectively meeting the diverse needs of older adults requires a proper classification of SARs' functions. However, existing functi...

Research on the movement pattern and kinematic model of the hindlegs of the water boatman.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
The special hindleg structure and swimming setae of a water boatman give it a high degree of maneuverability, which plays an important role in swimming. This paper used a high-speed photography platform to extract key points from videos, obtaining th...

Examining sustainable hospitality practices and employee turnover in Pakistan: The interplay of robotics awareness, mutual trust, and technical skills development in the age of artificial intelligence.

Journal of environmental management
Integrating robots and artificial intelligence (AI) into workplaces is becoming increasingly prevalent across various sectors, including hospitality. This trend has raised concerns regarding employee anxiety and the potential for higher turnover inte...

Real-time isolation of physiological tremor using recursive singular spectrum analysis and random vector functional link for surgical robotics.

ISA transactions
Hand-held robotic instruments enhance precision in microsurgery by mitigating physiological tremor in real time. Current tremor filtering algorithms in these instruments often employ nonlinear phase prefilters to isolate the tremor signal. However, t...

Effectiveness of robot-assisted task-oriented training intervention for upper limb and daily living skills in stroke patients: A meta-analysis.

PloS one
PURPOSE: Stroke is one of the leading causes of acquired disability in adults in high-income countries. This study aims to determine the intervention effects of robot-assisted task-oriented training on enhancing the upper limb function and daily livi...

Active Microrobots for Dual Removal of Biofilms via Chemical and Physical Mechanisms.

ACS applied materials & interfaces
Bacterial biofilms are complex multicellular communities that adhere firmly to solid surfaces. They are widely recognized as major threats to human health, contributing to issues such as persistent infections on medical implants and severe contaminat...

Exploring cultural imaginaries of robots with children with brittle bone disease: a participatory design study.

Medical humanities
A symbiotic relationship exists between narrative imaginaries of and real-life advancements in technology. Such cultural imaginings have a powerful influence on our understanding of the potential that technology has to affect our lives; as a result, ...

Why robot embodiment matters: questions of disability, race and intersectionality in the design of social robots.

Medical humanities
A growing minority of those with disabilities are people of color (POC), with, for example, autism diagnosis rates now higher for children of color than for white children in the USA. This trend underscores the need for assistive technologies, especi...
