A transverse ledge brachiation robot is designed to move transversely along a ledge on a vertical wall by generating energy from the swinging motion of its lower limbs. This method reduces the force required by the upper limbs to propel the robot for...
Assistive robots can be developed to restore or provide more autonomy for individuals with motor impairments. In particular, power wheelchairs can compensate lower-limb impairments, while robotic manipulators can compensate upper-limbs impairments. R...
In the field of robotic arm trajectory imitation learning, Gaussian Mixture Models are widely used for their ability to capture the characteristics of complex trajectories. However, one major challenge in utilizing these models lies in the initializa...

Endowing robots with human-like emotional and cognitive abilities has garnered widespread attention, driving deep investigations into the complexities of these processes. However, few studies have examined the intricate circuits that govern the inter...
The patch clamp technique has become the gold standard for neuron electrophysiology research in brain science. Brain slices have been widely utilized as the targets of the patch clamp technique due to their higher optical transparency compared to a l...
PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) in older patients with neurological gait disorder accompanied by various comorbidities.
We propose a robot-assisted method to generate spherical thermal lesions by high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation. Typically, HIFU-induced thermal lesions are cigar-shaped because the acoustic field in the focal area has a similar elongat...
In biomimetic design, researchers recreate existing biological structures to form functional devices. For biohybrid robotic swimmers assembled with tissue engineering, this is problematic because most devices operate at different length scales than t...
Cultured muscle tissue serves as a power source in biohybrid robots that demonstrate diverse motions. However, current designs typically only drive simple substrates on a small scale, limiting flexibility and controllability. To address this, we prop...
The study proposes a multi-sensor localization and real-timeble mapping method based on the fusion of 3D LiDAR point clouds and visual-inertial data, which addresses the issue of decreased localization accuracy and mapping in complex environments tha...
