INTRODUCTION: Robotic inguinal hernia repair (RIHR) is becoming increasingly common and is the minimally invasive alternative to laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair (LIHR). Thus far, there is little data directly comparing LIHR and RIHR. The purpose ...
The widely used stability parameter, the zero moment point (ZMP), which is usually defined on the ground, is redefined, in this paper, in two different ways to acquire a more general form that allows its application to systems that are not supported ...
This paper proposes an algorithm that provides operational strategies for multiple heterogeneous mobile robot systems utilized in many real-world applications, such as deliveries, surveillance, search and rescue, monitoring, and transportation. Speci...
OBJECTIVES: Robotic systems are moving toward more interaction with the environment, which requires improving environmental perception methods. The concept of primitive objects simplified the perception of the environment and is frequently used in va...
Variability is a property of biological systems, and in animals (including humans), behavioral variability is characterized by certain features, such as the range of variability and the shape of its distribution. Nevertheless, only a few studies have...
Biomimetic machines able to integrate with natural and social environments will find ubiquitous applications, from biodiversity conservation to elderly daily care. Although artificial actuators have reached the contraction performances of muscles, th...
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Our study was aimed at comparing the outcomes of laparoscopic and robot-assisted laparoscopic suture-based hysteropexy (SutureH) versus sacral hysteropexy using mesh (MeshH) for bothersome uterine prolapse. Our hypothesis...
