The effect of facial features on facial anthropomorphic trustworthiness in social robots.

Applied ergonomics
As the nature of human-robot relationships have become increasingly bound to shift from supervisor-machine to friend-companion, people have exhibited an increasing interest in making social judgments toward such anthropomorphic objects, such as trust...

A Review of Robotic and OCT-Aided Systems for Vitreoretinal Surgery.

Advances in therapy
The introduction of the intraocular vitrectomy instrument by Machemer et al. has led to remarkable advancements in vitreoretinal surgery enabling the limitations of human physiologic capabilities to be reached. To overcome the barriers of perception,...

Comparison of plasma neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) levels after robot-assisted laparoscopic and retropubic radical prostatectomy: an observational study.

Brazilian journal of anesthesiology (Elsevier)
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Patients undergoing radical prostatectomy are at increased risk of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) because of intraoperative bleeding, obstructive uropathy, and older age. Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin (NGAL) may bec...

Development and feasibility of a soft pneumatic-robotic glove to assist impaired hand function in quadriplegia patients: A pilot study.

Journal of bodywork and movement therapies
One of the common disorders in people with quadriplegia is having a weak grip strength that can affect activities of daily living (ADL). This study presents the design of a soft robotic glove via pneumatic actuators and feasibility according to a ran...

Differential mapping spiking neural network for sensor-based robot control.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
In this work, a spiking neural network (SNN) is proposed for approximating differential sensorimotor maps of robotic systems. The computed model is used as a local Jacobian-like projection that relates changes in sensor space to changes in motor spac...

Vision and RTLS Safety Implementation in an Experimental Human-Robot Collaboration Scenario.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Human-robot collaboration is becoming ever more widespread in industry because of its adaptability. Conventional safety elements are used when converting a workplace into a collaborative one, although new technologies are becoming more widespread. Th...

Effects of robot-assisted training on balance function in patients with stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Journal of rehabilitation medicine
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effectiveness of robot-assisted therapy on balance function in stroke survivors.
