Obstacle Avoidance of Multi-Sensor Intelligent Robot Based on Road Sign Detection.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The existing ultrasonic obstacle avoidance robot only uses an ultrasonic sensor in the process of obstacle avoidance, which can only be avoided according to the fixed obstacle avoidance route. Obstacle avoidance cannot follow additional information. ...

Wearable Assistive Robotics: A Perspective on Current Challenges and Future Trends.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Wearable assistive robotics is an emerging technology with the potential to assist humans with sensorimotor impairments to perform daily activities. This assistance enables individuals to be physically and socially active, perform activities independ...

Designing Acceptable Robots for Assisting Older Adults: A Pilot Study on the Willingness to Interact.

International journal of environmental research and public health
The aim of this paper was to explore the psychosocial determinants that lead to acceptability and willingness to interact with a service robot, starting with an analysis of older users' behaviors toward the Robot-Era platform, in order to provide str...

Modelling dielectric elastomer circuit networks for soft biomimetics.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
In order to obtain entirely soft bio-inspired robots, fully soft electronic circuits are needed. Dielectric elastomers (DEs) are electroactive polymers that have demonstrated multifunctionality. The same material can achieve different tasks like actu...

Robotic Surgery: At the Crossroads of a Data Explosion.

World journal of surgery
BACKGROUND: For the last 20 years, controversies in robotic surgery focused on cost reduction, development of new platforms and technologies, creation and validation of curriculum and virtual simulators, and conduction of randomized clinical trials t...

Reconfigurable Micro- and Nano-Structured Camouflage Surfaces Inspired by Cephalopods.

ACS nano
Wrinkled surfaces and materials are found throughout the natural world in various plants and animals and are known to improve the performance of emerging optical and electrical technologies. Despite much progress, the reversible post-fabrication tuni...

Systemic inflammatory response in robot-assisted and laparoscopic surgery for colon cancer (SIRIRALS): study protocol of a randomized controlled trial.

BMC surgery
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted surgery is being increasingly adopted in treating colorectal cancer, and the transition from laparoscopic surgery to robot-assisted surgery is a trend. The evidence of the benefits of robot-assisted surgery is sparse. Howev...
