Robotic Surgical Training at Home: A Low-Fidelity Simulation Method.

Journal of surgical education
OBJECTIVE: Laparoscopic box simulators provide surgical residents a cost-effective and accessible learning tool to practice basic laparoscopic skills. Despite effective, high-fidelity simulators used in robotic surgery training, a similar low-fidelit...

Beetle-robot hybrid interaction: sex, lateralization and mating experience modulate behavioural responses to robotic cues in the larger grain borer Prostephanus truncatus (Horn).

Biological cybernetics
Ethorobotics, a new fascinating field of biorobotics, proposes the use of robotic replicas as an advanced method for investigating animal behaviour. This novel research approach can also encourage the development of advanced bioinspired robots. In th...

Prospective Nonrandomized Comparison Between Open and Robot-Assisted Kidney Transplantation: Analysis of Midterm Functional Outcomes.

Journal of endourology
To compare short- and midterm outcomes of the first 55 patients undergoing robot-assisted kidney transplant (RAKT) with patients undergoing open kidney transplant (OKT) during the same period in a tertiary care hospital. Data of all end-stage renal...

The Use of Cumulative Sum Analysis to Derive Institutional and Surgeon-Specific Learning Curves for Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy.

Journal of endourology
The cumulative sum (CUSUM) approach has been adopted to evaluate surgical competence in various contexts. The CUSUM method comprises sequential monitoring of cumulative differences from a target level in performance quality over time, allowing the d...

The ANEMONE: Theoretical Foundations for UX Evaluation of Action and Intention Recognition in Human-Robot Interaction.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The coexistence of robots and humans in shared physical and social spaces is expected to increase. A key enabler of high-quality interaction is a mutual understanding of each other's actions and intentions. In this paper, we motivate and present a sy...

A Gesture-Controlled Rehabilitation Robot to Improve Engagement and Quantify Movement Performance.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Rehabilitation requires repetitive and coordinated movements for effective treatment, which are contingent on patient compliance and motivation. However, the monotony, intensity, and expense of most therapy routines do not promote engagement. Gesture...

MRI-guided lumbar spinal injections with body-mounted robotic system: cadaver studies.

Minimally invasive therapy & allied technologies : MITAT : official journal of the Society for Minimally Invasive Therapy
INTRODUCTION: This paper reports the system integration and cadaveric assessment of a body-mounted robotic system for MRI-guided lumbar spine injections. The system is developed to enable MR-guided interventions in closed bore magnet and avoid proble...

Self-initiations in young children with autism during Pivotal Response Treatment with and without robot assistance.

Autism : the international journal of research and practice
The initiation of social interaction is often defined as a core deficit of autism spectrum disorder. Optimizing these self-initiations is therefore a key component of Pivotal Response Treatment, an established intervention for children with autism sp...

Deep learning using preoperative magnetic resonance imaging information to predict early recovery of urinary continence after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether a deep learning model from magnetic resonance imaging information is an accurate method to predict the risk of urinary incontinence after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

Changes in technology acceptance among older people with dementia: the role of social robot engagement.

International journal of medical informatics
OBJECTIVE: Emerging technologies such as social robots have shown to be effective in reducing loneliness and agitation for older people with dementia. However, the acceptance of technology (specifically social robots) was found to be low for older pe...
