Force-Free Control for Direct Teaching of a Surgical Assistant Robot End Effector with Wire-Driven Bidirectional Telescopic Mechanism.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
This paper shows the design and modeling of an end effector with a bidirectional telescopic mechanism to allow a surgical assistant robot to hold and handle surgical instruments. It also presents a force-free control algorithm for the direct teaching...

Asymmetric shape of distal phalanx of human finger improves precision grasping.

Scientific reports
In morphology field, the functions of an asymmetric-shaped distal phalanx in human finger have only been inferred. In this study, we used an engineering approach to empirically examine the effects of the shape of distal phalanx on the ability of prec...

Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery for treatment of urinary tract stones in children: report of a multicenter international experience.

Urolithiasis
This study aimed to report a multi-institutional experience with robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery (RALS) for treatment of urinary tract stones in children. The medical records of 15 patients (12 boys), who underwent RALS for urolithiasis in 4 inte...

Effects of gait training with a voluntary-driven wearable cyborg, Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL), on quality of life in patients with neuromuscular disease, able to walk independently with aids.

Journal of clinical neuroscience : official journal of the Neurosurgical Society of Australasia
Robot-assisted gait training using a voluntary-driven wearable cyborg, Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL), has been shown to improve the mobility of patients with neurological disorders; however, its effect on the quality of life (QOL) of patients is not cl...

Torque Curve Optimization of Ankle Push-Off in Walking Bipedal Robots Using Genetic Algorithm.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Ankle push-off occurs when muscle-tendon units about the ankle joint generate a burst of positive power at the end of stance phase in human walking. Ankle push-off mainly contributes to both leg swing and center of mass (CoM) acceleration. Humans use...

Acceptability of Social Robots and Adaptation of Hybrid-Face Robot for Dementia Care in India: A Qualitative Study.

The American journal of geriatric psychiatry : official journal of the American Association for Geriatric Psychiatry
OBJECTIVES: This study aims to understand the acceptability of social robots and the adaptation of the Hybrid-Face Robot for dementia care in India.

Can robot-assisted kidney transplantation provide higher quality of life than open kidney transplantation during the early postoperative period?

International journal of clinical practice
PURPOSE: Purpose of this study is to investigate the quality of life (QoL) in patients with end-stage renal disease who underwent open or robot-assisted kidney transplantation (OKT and RAKT).

An open-source semi-automated robotics pipeline for embryo immunohistochemistry.

Scientific reports
A significant challenge for developmental systems biology is balancing throughput with controlled conditions that minimize experimental artifacts. Large-scale developmental screens such as unbiased mutagenesis surveys have been limited in their appli...

A comprehensive swarming intelligent method for optimizing deep learning-based object detection by unmanned ground vehicles.

PloS one
Unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) are an important research application of artificial intelligence. In particular, the deep learning-based object detection method is widely used in UGV-based environmental perception. Good experimental results are achie...
