Use of Robotic Platforms as a Tool to Support STEM and Physical Education in Developed Countries: A Descriptive Analysis.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The lack of interest of children at school is one of the biggest problems that Mexican education faces. Two important factors causing this lack of interest are the predominant methodology used in Mexican schools and the technology as a barrier for at...

A Case Study of Upper Limb Robotic-Assisted Therapy Using the Track-Hold Device.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The Track-Hold System (THS) project, developed in a healthcare facility and therefore in a controlled and protected healthcare environment, contributes to the more general and broad context of Robotic-Assisted Therapy (RAT). RAT represents an advance...

Effects of Balance Exercise Assist Robot training for patients with hemiparetic stroke: a randomized controlled trial.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted rehabilitation for patients with stroke is promising. However, it is unclear whether additional balance training using a balance-focused robot combined with conventional rehabilitation programs supplements the balance funct...

Real-time motion onset recognition for robot-assisted gait rehabilitation.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Many patients with neurological movement disorders fear to fall while performing postural transitions without assistance, which prevents them from participating in daily life. To overcome this limitation, multi-directional Body Weight Sup...

Motor Ability Evaluation of the Upper Extremity with Point-To-Point Training Movement Based on End-Effector Robot-Assisted Training System.

Journal of healthcare engineering
Assessment is critical during the procedure of stroke rehabilitation. However, traditional assessment methods are time-consuming, laborious, and dependent on the skillfulness of the therapist. Moreover, they cannot distinguish whether the improvement...

The Role of Decision Authority and Stated Social Intent as Predictors of Trust in Autonomous Robots.

Topics in cognitive science
Prior research has demonstrated that trust in robots and performance of robots are two important factors that influence human-autonomy teaming. However, other factors may influence users' perceptions and use of autonomous systems, such as perceived i...

A simulation study to investigate the use of concentric tube robots for epilepsy surgery.

Child's nervous system : ChNS : official journal of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery
PURPOSE: Patients with pharmacoresistant refractory epilepsy may require epilepsy surgery to prevent future seizure occurrences. Conventional surgery consists of a large craniotomy with straight rigid tools with associated outcomes of morbidity, larg...

A Self-Powered Triboelectric Hybrid Coder for Human-Machine Interaction.

Small methods
Human-machine interfaces have penetrated various academia and industry fields such as smartphones, robotic, virtual reality, and wearable electronics, due to their abundant functional sensors and information interaction methods. Nevertheless, most se...

Frameless robot-assisted stereotactic biopsies for lesions of the brainstem-a series of 103 consecutive biopsies.

Journal of neuro-oncology
PURPOSE: Targeted treatment for brainstem lesions requires above all a precise histopathological and molecular diagnosis. In the current technological era, robot-assisted stereotactic biopsies represent an accurate and safe procedure for tissue diagn...

A Preliminary Study on Realizing Human-Robot Mental Comforting Dialogue via Sharing Experience Emotionally.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Mental health issues are receiving more and more attention in society. In this paper, we introduce a preliminary study on human-robot mental comforting conversation, to make an android robot (ERICA) present an understanding of the user's situation by...
