Toward Bio-Inspired Tactile Sensing Capsule Endoscopy for Detection of Submucosal Tumors (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 IEEE. Here, we present a method for lump characterization using a bio-inspired remote tactile sensing capsule endoscopy system. While current capsule endoscopy utilizes cameras to diagnose lesions on the surface of the gastrointestinal tract l...

Navigation system for robot-assisted intra-articular lower-limb fracture surgery (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016, The Author(s). Purpose: In the surgical treatment for lower-leg intra-articular fractures, the fragments have to be positioned and aligned to reconstruct the fractured bone as precisely as possible, to allow the joint to function correctly ag...

Development of a novel functional electrical stimulation system for hand rehabilitation using feedback control (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2016 IEEE. Worldwide stroke is a leading cause for disability and the demand for rehabilitation devices and everyday life assistance is still high. To address this demand, we consider a combination of Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) of the...

An assistive robot to support dressing-strategies for planning and error handling (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2016 IEEE. Assistive robots are emerging to address a social need due to changing demographic trends such as an ageing population. The main emphasis is to offer independence to those in need and to fill a potential labour gap in response to the inc...

Single motor actuated peristaltic wave generator for a soft bodied worm robot (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper presents the design and development of a single motor actuated peristaltic worm robot with three segments using a bio-inspired method of locomotion with one actuator that achieves optimised worm like peristaltic motion. Each segment consis... Read More about Single motor actuated peristaltic wave generator for a soft bodied worm robot.

Design of a multi-DOF cable-driven mechanism of a miniature serial manipulator for robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

While multi-fingered robotic hands have been developed for decades, none has been used for surgical operations. MicroAngelo is an anthropomorphic master-slave system for tele-operated robot-assisted surgery. As part of this system, this paper focuses...

Image-based robotic system for enhanced minimally invasive intra-articular fracture surgeries (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Robotic assistance can bring significant improvements to orthopedic fracture surgery: facilitate more accurate fracture fragment repositioning without open access and obviate problems related to the current minimally invasive
fracture surgery techni... Read More about Image-based robotic system for enhanced minimally invasive intra-articular fracture surgeries.
