Robotic single-port surgery: Preliminary experience in general surgery.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: We aim to analyse the safety and feasibility of the DaVinci Single Port (SP) platform in general surgery.

Robot-assisted modified radical hysterectomy with removal of lymphatic vessel using indocyanine green: A new method.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: The sentinel lymph node (SLN) procedures using indocyanine green (ICG) have recently been performed worldwide. The aim of this study was to emphasise the safety of robot-assisted modified radical hysterectomy (RAMRH) with removal of the l...

Multi-Degree-of-Freedom Robots Powered and Controlled by Microwaves.

Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany)
Microwaves have become a promising wireless driving strategy due to the advantages of transmissivity through obstacles, fast energy targeting, and selective heating. Although there are some studies on microwave powered artificial muscles based on dif...

A Continuum Robotic Cannula With Tip Following Capability and Distal Dexterity for Intracerebral Hemorrhage Evacuation.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: This paper aims to investigate a new continuum robot design and its motion implementation methods appropriate for a minimally invasive intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) evacuation.

Design and Control of a Magnetically-Actuated Capsule Robot With Biopsy Function.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Wireless capsule endoscopy has been well used for gastrointestinal (GI) tract diagnosis. However, it can only obtain images and cannot take samples of GI tract tissues. In this study, we designed a magnetically-actuated biopsy capsule (MAB...

Simulating Ideal Assistive Strategies to Reduce the Metabolic Cost of Walking in the Elderly.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Development of walking assist exoskeletons is a growing area of study, offering a solution to restore, maintain, and enhance mobility. However, applying this technology to the elderly is challenging and there is currently no consensus as t...

SLAM on the Hexagonal Grid.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Hexagonal grids have many advantages over square grids and could be successfully used in mobile robotics as a map representation. However, there is a lack of an essential algorithm, namely, SLAM (simultaneous localization and mapping), that would gen...

Automated optimization of multilevel models of collective behaviour: application to mixed society of animals and robots.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Animal societies exhibit complex dynamics that require multi-level descriptions. They are difficult to model, as they encompass information at different levels of description, such as individual physiology, individual behaviour, group behaviour and f...

Path planning for autonomous mobile robots using multi-objective evolutionary particle swarm optimization.

PloS one
In this article, a new path planning algorithm is proposed. The algorithm is developed on the basis of the algorithm for finding the best value using multi-objective evolutionary particle swarm optimization, known as the MOEPSO. The proposed algorith...
