Change in quality of life in older people with dementia participating in Paro-activity: a cluster-randomized controlled trial.

Journal of advanced nursing
AIM: The aim of this study was to investigate effects of robot-assisted group activity with Paro on quality of life in older people with dementia.

The body of knowledge: On the role of the living body in grounding embodied cognition.

Bio Systems
Embodied cognition is a hot topic in both cognitive science and AI, despite the fact that there still is relatively little consensus regarding what exactly constitutes 'embodiment'. While most embodied AI and cognitive robotics research views the bod...

Robotic Mirror Therapy System for Functional Recovery of Hemiplegic Arms.

Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE
Mirror therapy has been performed as effective occupational therapy in a clinical setting for functional recovery of a hemiplegic arm after stroke. It is conducted by eliciting an illusion through use of a mirror as if the hemiplegic arm is moving in...

Thought-Controlled Nanoscale Robots in a Living Host.

PloS one
We report a new type of brain-machine interface enabling a human operator to control nanometer-size robots inside a living animal by brain activity. Recorded EEG patterns are recognized online by an algorithm, which in turn controls the state of an e...

Ability of electrical stimulation therapy to improve the effectiveness of robotic training for paretic upper limbs in patients with stroke.

Medical engineering & physics
We investigated whether untriggered neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) can increase the effectiveness of shoulder and elbow robotic training in patients with hemiparesis. Thirty subacute stroke patients were randomly equally allocated to rob...

Iliac Limb Perigraft Access with Robotic Catheter Assistance for Type 2 Endoleak Embolization.

Annals of vascular surgery
Retrograde perigraft access to the aneurysmal sac for type 2 endoleak embolization is a relevant alternative to standard transarterial and translumbar approaches. Entering the space between the graft and the iliac artery requires support and pushabil...

Medical telerobotic systems: current status and future trends.

Biomedical engineering online
Teleoperated medical robotic systems allow procedures such as surgeries, treatments, and diagnoses to be conducted across short or long distances while utilizing wired and/or wireless communication networks. This study presents a systematic review of...

A Multi-Robot Sense-Act Approach to Lead to a Proper Acting in Environmental Incidents.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Many environmental incidents affect large areas, often in rough terrain constrained by natural obstacles, which makes intervention difficult. New technologies, such as unmanned aerial vehicles, may help address this issue due to their suitability to ...
