Time Sharing Between Robotics and Process Control: Validating a Model of Attention Switching.

Human factors
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to validate the strategic task overload management (STOM) model that predicts task switching when concurrence is impossible.

Robot-assisted excision of seminal vesicle cyst associated with ipsilateral renal agenesis.

Archivio italiano di urologia, andrologia : organo ufficiale [di] Societa italiana di ecografia urologica e nefrologica
Seminal vesicle cysts (SVCs) associated with other genitourologic abnormalities are rare. Often associated with ipsilateral renal agenesis in a symptomatic patient. In symptomatic patients open surgical excision is the treatment of choice. The laparo...

Control of a Robotic Hand Using a Tongue Control System-A Prosthesis Application.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of using an inductive tongue control system (ITCS) for controlling robotic/prosthetic hands and arms.

RoboFish: increased acceptance of interactive robotic fish with realistic eyes and natural motion patterns by live Trinidadian guppies.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
In recent years, simple biomimetic robots have been increasingly used in biological studies to investigate social behavior, for example collective movement. Nevertheless, a big challenge in developing biomimetic robots is the acceptance of the roboti...

Robot-assisted automatic ultrasound calibration.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Ultrasound (US) calibration is the process of determining the unknown transformation from a coordinate frame such as the robot's tooltip to the US image frame and is a necessary task for any robotic or tracked US system. US calibration requi...

A patient-specific EMG-driven neuromuscular model for the potential use of human-inspired gait rehabilitation robots.

Computers in biology and medicine
A patient-specific electromyography (EMG)-driven neuromuscular model (PENm) is developed for the potential use of human-inspired gait rehabilitation robots. The PENm is modified based on the current EMG-driven models by decreasing the calculation tim...

Seeing Minds in Others - Can Agents with Robotic Appearance Have Human-Like Preferences?

PloS one
Ascribing mental states to non-human agents has been shown to increase their likeability and lead to better joint-task performance in human-robot interaction (HRI). However, it is currently unclear what physical features non-human agents need to poss...

Robotic Quantification of Position Sense in Children With Perinatal Stroke.

Neurorehabilitation and neural repair
Background Perinatal stroke is the leading cause of hemiparetic cerebral palsy. Motor deficits and their treatment are commonly emphasized in the literature. Sensory dysfunction may be an important contributor to disability, but it is difficult to me...
