OBJECTIVES: To explore factors influencing hospital pharmacy staff acceptance of a pharmacy robotic dispensing system during implementation and over time.
This note describes the development of a mixed-reality assistive robotic wheel chair simulator for testing of Parkinson's tremor mitigation and operator assistance. It consists of a power chair (PCh), roller dynamometer, head mounted virtual reality ...
Human action recognition is an important research area in the field of computer vision that can be applied in surveillance, assisted living, and robotic systems interacting with people. Although various approaches have been widely used, recent studie...
The objective of this study is to integrate biomimetic robots into small groups of zebrafish and to modulate their collective behaviours. A possible approach is to have the robots behave like sheepdogs. In this case, the robots would behave like a di...
Thanks to their sprawled posture and multi-legged support, stability is not as hard to achieve for hexapedal robots as it is for bipeds and quadrupeds. A key engineering challenge with hexapods has been to produce insect-like agility and maneuverabil...
1. Modern broiler production in large sheds holding upwards of 50 000 birds uses indoor climate control based on a handful of fixed-location sensors, often well above the bird-occupied zone. Significant deviations from optimal climate conditions for ...
In physical Human-Robot Interaction (pHRI), forces exerted by humans need to be estimated to accommodate robot commands to human constraints, preferences, and needs. This paper presents a method for the estimation of the interaction forces between a ...
The size of a device and its adaptability to human properties are important factors in developing a wearable device. In wearable robot research, therefore, soft materials and tendon transmissions have been utilized to make robots compact and adaptabl...
Tactile sensing is paramount for robots operating in human-centered environments to help in understanding interaction with objects. To enable robots to have sophisticated tactile sensing capability, researchers have developed different kinds of elect...
