Autonomous Low-Reynolds-Number Soft Robots with Structurally Encoded Motion and Their Thermodynamic Efficiency.

Langmuir : the ACS journal of surfaces and colloids
Soft low-Reynolds-number robotics hold the potential to significantly impact numerous fields including drug delivery, sensing, and diagnostics. Realizing this potential is predicated upon the ability to design soft robots tailored to their intended f...

Two degree-of-freedom robotic eye: design, modeling, and learning-based control in foveation and smooth pursuit.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
With increasing ocular motility disorders affecting human eye movement, the need to understand the biomechanics of the human eye rises constantly. A robotic eye system that physically mimics the human eye can serve as a useful tool for biomedical res...

A hybrid feature-based patient-to-image registration method for robot-assisted long bone osteotomy.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to provide a simple, feasible and effective patient-to-image registration method for robot-assisted long bone osteotomy, which has rarely been systematically reported. The practical requirement is to meet the acc...

Path Planning for Mobile Robot Based on Improved Bat Algorithm.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Bat algorithm has disadvantages of slow convergence rate, low convergence precision and weak stability. In this paper, we designed an improved bat algorithm with a logarithmic decreasing strategy and Cauchy disturbance. In order to meet the requireme...

Robust Multimodal Indirect Sensing for Soft Robots Via Neural Network-Aided Filter-Based Estimation.

Soft robotics
Sensory data are critical for soft robot perception. However, integrating sensors to soft robots remains challenging due to their inherent softness. An alternative approach is indirect sensing through an estimation scheme, which uses robot dynamics a...

[DeRAS I-German situation of robotic-assisted surgery-an online survey].

Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen
BACKGROUND: Robotic assistance has become established in surgery but is not yet a standard procedure. The current status of clinical dissemination in Germany remains unclear. Industry independent sources are scarce.

Video recognition of simple mastoidectomy using convolutional neural networks: Detection and segmentation of surgical tools and anatomical regions.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
A simple mastoidectomy is used to remove inflammation of the mastoid cavity and to create a route to the skull base and middle ear. However, due to the complexity and difficulty of the simple mastoidectomy, implementing robot vision for assisted surg...

Evaluation of external contamination on the vial surfaces of some hazardous drugs that commonly used in Chinese hospitals and comparison between environmental contamination generated during robotic compounding by IV: Dispensing robot vs. manual compounding in biological safety cabinet.

Journal of oncology pharmacy practice : official publication of the International Society of Oncology Pharmacy Practitioners
OBJECTIVES: The aims of the study were to evaluate the external contamination of hazardous drug vials used in Chinese hospitals and to compare environmental contamination generated by a robotic intelligent dispensing system (WEINAS) and a manual comp...

V-Shape Pneumatic Torsional Actuator: A Building Block for Soft Grasper and Manipulator.

Soft robotics
Robotic joints are fundamental components in artificial graspers and manipulators, and they are designed to achieve high dexterity to carry out various tasks. Traditional robotic hands are often driven by rigid joints, such as tendons and electric mo...
