OBJECTIVE: We introduced a humanoid robot for the use of techno-psychological distraction techniques in children aged 4-10 to reduce their anxiety and improve their behaviour during dental treatment.
This research presents a control structure for an omni-wheel mobile robot (OWMR). The control structure includes the path planning module and the motion control module. In order to secure the robustness and fast control performance required in the op...
BACKGROUND: Although sex toys representing human body parts are widely accepted and normalized, human-like full-body sex dolls and sex robots have elicited highly controversial debates.

To date, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has infected millions of people worldwide. Ultrasound plays an indispensable role in the diagnosis, monitoring, and follow-up of patients with COVID-19. In this study, we used a robotic tele-echography sys...
BACKGROUND: Overground lower-limb robotic exoskeletons are assistive devices used to facilitate ambulation and gait rehabilitation. Our understanding of how closely they resemble comfortable and slow walking is limited. This information is important ...
BACKGROUND: Although the Gait Exercise Assist Robot (GEAR) has been reported to effectively improve gait of hemiplegic patients, no study has investigated its use in chronic stroke patients. It is possible to facilitate gait reorganization by gait tr...
Radiation therapy (RT) is widely used to treat cancer. Technological advances in RT have occurred in the past 30 years. These advances, such as three-dimensional image guidance, intensity modulation, and robotics, created challenges and opportunities...
Gram-scale insects, such as cockroaches, take advantage of the mechanical properties of the musculoskeletal system to enable rapid and robust running. Engineering gram-scale robots, much like their biological counterparts, comes with inherent constra...
Ideally, robots may be designed to adapt to different tasks such as heavy lifting and handling delicate objects, in which the requirements in force compliance and position accuracy vary dramatically. While conventional rigid actuators are usually cha...
