OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study is to establish the feasibility, safety, diagnostic performance, and clinical impact of real-time intraprocedural F-FDG PET/CT-guided automated robotic arm-assisted biopsy of hypermetabolic marrow or bone lesions.
This paper presents a discretization methodology applied to the NBV (Next Best View) problem, which consists of determining the heuristical best position of the next scan. This new methodology is a hybrid process between a homogenous voxelization and...

Cow routines and behavioral responses are altered substantially following the installation of robot milking. The present study was designed to analyze the effect that switching from milking parlor to automatic milking system (AMS) had on the culling ...
Template models of legged locomotion are powerful tools for gait analysis, but can also inspire robot design and control. In this paper, a spring-loaded inverted pendulum (SLIP) model is employed to control vertical hopping of a 2-segmented legged ro...

OBJECTIVE: To assess whether robot-assisted reach training (RART) with an active assistant protocol can improve upper extremity function and kinematic performance in chronic stroke survivors.
We have designed and constructed a Flipping Stage for a light microscope that can view the whole exterior surface of a 2 mm diameter developing axolotl salamander embryo. It works by rapidly inverting the bottom-heavy embryo, imaging it as it rights ...
