Soluble Polymer Pneumatic Networks and a Single-Pour System for Improved Accessibility and Durability of Soft Robotic Actuators.

Soft robotics
Soft robotic devices can be used to demonstrate mechanics, robotics, and health care devices in classrooms. The complexity of soft robotic actuator fabrication has limited its classroom use. We propose a single-mold method of fabricating soluble inse...

Time-Driven activity-based costing identifies opportunities for process efficiency and cost optimization for robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty.

Journal of pediatric urology
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty (RALP) is a commonly performed procedure in children, but its actual cost implications on the healthcare ecosystem have not been adequately defined. Time-driven activity-based costing (TDABC) is a n...

Lomboaortic Lymphadenectomy in Gynecological Oncology: Laparotomy, Laparoscopy or Robot-Assisted Laparoscopy?

Annals of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: The outcomes of paraaortic lymphadenectomy were compared for the treatment of gynecological malignancies to identify the most appropriate surgical approach.

Effectiveness of robot-assisted gait training on patients with burns: a preliminary study.

Computer methods in biomechanics and biomedical engineering
Gait enables individuals to move forward and is considered a natural skill. However, gait disturbances are very common in patients with burn injury. Recent studies have emphasized the role of robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) in rehabilitation. Thi...

An Open-Source 7-DOF Wireless Human Arm Motion-Tracking System for Use in Robotics Research.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
To extend the choice of inertial motion-tracking systems freely available to researchers and educators, this paper presents an alternative open-source design of a wearable 7-DOF wireless human arm motion-tracking system. Unlike traditional inertial m...

Environmental influences on evolvable robots.

PloS one
The field of Evolutionary Robotics addresses the challenge of automatically designing robotic systems. Furthermore, the field can also support biological investigations related to evolution. In this paper, we evolve (simulated) modular robots under d...

Adaptive robot mediated upper limb training using electromyogram-based muscle fatigue indicators.

PloS one
Studies on improving the adaptability of upper limb rehabilitation training do not often consider the implications of muscle fatigue sufficiently. In this study, electromyogram features were used as fatigue indicators in the context of human-robot in...
