Crabs are adept at traversing natural terrains that are challenging for mobile robots. Curved dactyls are a characteristic feature that engage terrain in order to resist wave forces in surf zones. Inward gripping motions at the onset of the stance co...
Robots are transforming the nature of human work. Although human-robot collaborations can create new jobs and increase productivity, pundits often warn about how robots might replace humans at work and create mass unemployment. Despite these warnings...
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) training usually takes place in vivo, and methods vary across countries/institutions. No common system exists to objectively assess trainee ability to perform RAPN at predetermined performance lev...
BACKGROUND: Most studies comparing robotic and laparoscopic surgery, show little difference in clinical outcomes to justify the expense. We systematically reviewed and pooled evidence from studies comparing robotic and laparoscopic rectal resection.

BACKGROUND: Since most developed countries are facing an increase in the number of patients per healthcare worker due to a declining birth rate and an ageing population, relatively simple and safe diagnosis tasks may need to be performed using roboti...
The surgical treatment of parastomal hernias is considered complex and is known to be prone to complications. Traditionally, this condition was treated using relocation techniques or local suture repairs. Since then, several mesh-based techniques hav...

Grasping, in both biological and engineered mechanisms, can be highly sensitive to the gripper and object morphology, as well as perception and motion planning. Here, we circumvent the need for feedback or precise planning by using an array of fluidi...
Human-robot interaction technology has contributed to improving sociality for humanoid robots. At scales far from human scales, a microrobot can interact with an environment in a small world. Microsensors have been applied to measurement of forces by...
The solution of complex problems by the collective action of simple agents in both biologically evolved and synthetically engineered systems involves cooperative action. Understanding the resulting emergent solutions requires integrating across the o...
