Automation of multiplex biochemical assays to enhance productivity and reduce cycle time using a modular robotic platform.

SLAS technology
Pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies are increasingly being challenged to shorten the cycle time between design, make, test, and analyze (DMTA) compounds. Automation of multiplex assays to obtain multiparameter data on the same robotic run is i...

Ambiguous animals, ambivalent carers and arbitrary care collectives: Re-theorizing resistance to social robots in healthcare.

Social science & medicine (1982)
Many countries are under pressure because of lack of healthcare staff to provide care to an increasingly aged population. Potential solutions are often sought through technological innovation, including social robots to cater to the patients' emotion...

Bioinspired design and validation of a soft robotic end-effector with integrated shape memory alloy-driven suction capabilities.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
The exploration of adaptive robotic systems capable of performing complex tasks in unstructured environments, such as underwater salvage operations, presents a significant challenge. Traditional rigid grippers often struggle with adaptability, wherea...

How to identify patient perception of AI voice robots in the follow-up scenario? A multimodal identity perception method based on deep learning.

Journal of biomedical informatics
OBJECTIVES: Post-discharge follow-up stands as a critical component of post-diagnosis management, and the constraints of healthcare resources impede comprehensive manual follow-up. However, patients are less cooperative with AI follow-up calls or may...

Predefined-Time Convergent Kinematic Control of Robotic Manipulators With Unknown Models Based on Hybrid Neural Dynamics and Human Behaviors.

IEEE transactions on neural networks and learning systems
This article proposes a model-free kinematic control method with predefined-time convergence for robotic manipulators with unknown models. The predefined-time convergence property guarantees that the regulation task can be finished by robotic manipul...

High-throughput Kinetics using capillary Electrophoresis and Robotics (HiKER) platform used to study T7, T3, and Sp6 RNA polymerase misincorporation.

PloS one
T7 RNA Polymerase (RNAP) is a widely used enzyme with recent applications in the production of RNA vaccines. For over 50 years denaturing sequencing gels have been used as key analysis tools for probing the nucleotide addition mechanisms of T7 RNAP a...

Extending visual range of bacteria with upconversion nanoparticles and constructing NIR-responsive bio-microrobots.

Journal of colloid and interface science
The motility of bacteria is crucial for navigating competitive environments and is closely linked to physiological activities essential for their survival, such as biofilm development. Precise regulation of bacterial motility enhances our understandi...

Psychosocial effects of a humanoid robot on informal caregivers of people with dementia: A randomised controlled trial with nested interviews.

International journal of nursing studies
BACKGROUND: Dementia rates are rising globally, impacting healthcare systems and society. The care of people with dementia is largely provided by informal caregivers (e.g., family, friends), which can present significant challenges and increase careg...

Barrier function-based prescribed performance trajectory tracking control of wheelchair upper-limb exoskeleton robot under actuator fault and external disturbance: Experimental verification.

ISA transactions
This paper presents an innovative control strategy for the trajectory tracking of wheelchair upper-limb exoskeleton robots, integrating sliding mode control with a barrier function-based prescribed performance approach to handle actuator faults and e...

Development of a visuo-tactile sensor for non-destructive peach firmness and contact force measurement suitable for robotic arm applications.

Food chemistry
Precise measurement of firmness was crucial for determining optimal harvesting times, implementing rational storage strategies and minimizing avoidable waste. Current technologies for assessing peach firmness struggled to balance high precision and n...
