Coverage Path Planning Methods Focusing on Energy Efficient and Cooperative Strategies for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The coverage path planning (CPP) algorithms aim to cover the total area of interest with minimum overlapping. The goal of the CPP algorithms is to minimize the total covering path and execution time. Significant research has been done in robotics, pa...

Enzyme-Photocatalyst Tandem Microrobot Powered by Urea for Escherichia coli Biofilm Eradication.

Small (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)
Urinary-based infections affect millions of people worldwide. Such bacterial infections are mainly caused by Escherichia coli (E. coli) biofilm formation in the bladder and/or urinary catheters. Herein, the authors present a hybrid enzyme/photocataly...

Development of a Robot Arm Link System Embedded with a Three-Axis Sensor with a Simple Structure Capable of Excellent External Collision Detection.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In order to effectively detect the contact state between the operator and the collaborative robot, a sensor with excellent external force detection performance is needed. The existing force/torque sensor and joint torque sensor, which are the two mai...

A novel bone registration method using impression molding and structured-light 3D scanning technology.

Journal of orthopaedic research : official publication of the Orthopaedic Research Society
Accurate bone registration is critical for computer navigation and robotic surgery. Existing registration systems are expensive, cumbersome, limited in accuracy and/or require intraoperative radiation. We recently reported a novel method of registrat...

Pragmatic inferences in aging and human-robot communication.

Cognition
Despite the increase in research on older adults' communicative behavior, little work has explored patterns of age-related change in pragmatic inferencing and how these patterns are adapted depending on the situation-specific context. In two eye-trac...

Posterior transperitoneal robot-assisted partial nephrectomy in the treatment of renal tumors: Feasibility of a hybrid approach.

Progres en urologie : journal de l'Association francaise d'urologie et de la Societe francaise d'urologie
PURPOSE: Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) for posterior renal tumors may be performed through anterior (transperitoneal) or posterior (retroperitoneal) approach depending on surgeon's expertise. We propose herein a surgical artifice using da...

Magnetic-Actuated Robot Enables High-Performance Underwater Bubble Maneuvering on Laser-Textured Biomimetic Slippery Surfaces.

Langmuir : the ACS journal of surfaces and colloids
Controllable underwater gas bubble (UGB) transport on a surface is realized by geography-/stimuli-induced wettability gradient force (). Unfortunately, the high-speed maneuvering of UGBs along free routes on planar surfaces remains challenging. Herei...

Multifaceted Engineered Biomimetic Nanorobots Toward Cancer Management.

ACS biomaterials science & engineering
The noteworthy beneficiary to date in nanotechnology is cancer management. Nanorobots are developed as the result of advancements in the nanostructure, robotics, healthcare, and computer systems. These devices at the nanoscale level are beneficial in...

From Perception to Navigation in Environments with Persons: An Indoor Evaluation of the State of the Art.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Research in the field of social robotics is allowing service robots to operate in environments with people. In the aim of realizing the vision of humans and robots coexisting in the same environment, several solutions have been proposed to (1) percei...
