How do older adults experience and perceive socially assistive robots in aged care: a systematic review of qualitative evidence.

Aging & mental health
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this review was to gain a better understanding of how older adults experience, perceive, think, and feel about the use of socially assistive robots (SARs) in aged care settings.

Effect of body weight support variation on muscle activities during robot assisted gait: a dynamic simulation study.

Computer methods in biomechanics and biomedical engineering
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: While body weight support (BWS) intonation is vital during conventional gait training of neurologically challenged subjects, it is important to evaluate its effect during robot assisted gait training. In the present researc...

Robot-assisted single-site compared with laparoscopic single-incision cholecystectomy for benign gallbladder disease: protocol for a randomized controlled trial.

BMC surgery
BACKGROUND: Recent advances in robotic technology suggest that the utilization of the da Vinci Single-Siteā„¢ platform for cholecystectomy is safe, feasible and results in a shorter learning curve compared to conventional single-incision laparoscopic c...

Finances and returns for robotic dairies.

Journal of dairy science
Automatic milking systems (AMS) became commercially available in the early 1990s. These systems provide flexibility and improve the lifestyle of farmers installing them. Because of the larger capital cost per kilogram of milk produced, observational ...

Sensory tractography and robot-quantified proprioception in hemiparetic children with perinatal stroke.

Human brain mapping
Perinatal stroke causes most hemiparetic cerebral palsy, resulting in lifelong disability. We have demonstrated the ability of robots to quantify sensory dysfunction in hemiparetic children but the relationship between such deficits and sensory tract...

Robotic Arm-Assisted Sonography: Review of Technical Developments and Potential Clinical Applications.

AJR. American journal of roentgenology
OBJECTIVE: Ultrasound imaging requires trained personnel. Advances in robotics and data transmission create the possibility of telesonography. This review introduces clinicians to current technical work in and potential applications of this developin...

Advanced Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control for Robot Manipulator.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
In this paper, advanced interval type-2 fuzzy sliding mode control (AIT2FSMC) for robot manipulator is proposed. The proposed AIT2FSMC is a combination of interval type-2 fuzzy system and sliding mode control. For resembling a feedback linearization ...

Improving therapeutic outcomes in autism spectrum disorders: Enhancing social communication and sensory processing through the use of interactive robots.

Journal of psychiatric research
For children with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs), social robots are increasingly utilized as therapeutic tools in order to enhance social skills and communication. Robots have been shown to generate a number of social and behavioral benefits in chi...
