Economic benefits of microprocessor controlled prosthetic knees: a modeling study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Advanced prosthetic knees allow for more dynamic movements and improved quality of life, but payers have recently started questioning their value. To answer this question, the differential clinical outcomes and cost of microprocessor-cont...

Control within a virtual environment is correlated to functional outcomes when using a physical prosthesis.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Advances such as targeted muscle reinnervation and pattern recognition control may provide improved control of upper limb myoelectric prostheses, but evaluating user function remains challenging. Virtual environments are cost-effective an...

Light-Driven Micro/Nanomotor for Promising Biomedical Tools: Principle, Challenge, and Prospect.

Accounts of chemical research
A micro/nanomotor (MNM), as miniaturized machinery, can potentially bridge the application gap between the traditional macroscale motor and the molecular motor to manipulate materials at the cellular scale. The fascinating biomedical potential applic...

The impact of robotic intervention on joint attention in children with autism spectrum disorders.

Molecular autism
BACKGROUND: A growing body of anecdotal evidence indicates that the use of robots may provide unique opportunities for assisting children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). However, previous studies investigating the effects of interventions using...

Microanalysis of video from a robotic surgical procedure: implications for observational learning in the robotic environment.

Journal of robotic surgery
Without haptic feedback, robotic surgeons rely on visual processing to interpret the operative field. To provide guidance for teaching in this environment, we analyzed intracorporeal actions and behaviors of a robotic surgeon. Six hours of video were...
