Powered exoskeleton with palm degrees of freedom for hand rehabilitation (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2015 IEEE. Robotic rehabilitation is a currently underutilised field with the potential to allow huge cost savings within healthcare. Existing rehabilitation exoskeletons oversimplify the importance of movement of the hand while undertaking everyda...

Development of an EMG controlled hand exoskeleton for post-stroke rehabilitation (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2015 ACM. Rehabilitation after stroke is of crucial importance since patients often have severe motor impairments that affect their daily activities. In the past decades, a number of robotic systems have been proposed for stroke rehabilitation but... Read More about Development of an EMG controlled hand exoskeleton for post-stroke rehabilitation.

Vision-based real-time position control of a semi-automated system for robot-assisted joint fracture surgery (2015)
Journal Article

Purpose: Joint fracture surgery quality can be improved by robotic system with high-accuracy and high-repeatability fracture fragment manipulation. A new real-time vision-based system for fragment manipulation during robot-assisted fracture surgery w...

Safety in Medical Robotics: Hazard Analysis for a Robot-Assisted Fracture Surgery System (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Towards robot assisted fracture surgery for intra-articular joint fractures (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Design and real-time control of a robotic system for fracture manipulation (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper presents the design, development and control of a new robotic system for fracture manipulation. The objective is to improve the precision, ergonomics and safety of the traditional surgical procedure to treat joint fractures. The achievemen...

Towards model-based robot behaviour adaptation: Successful human-robot collaboration in tense and stressful situations (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2015 IEEE. In a demanding environment such as search and rescue, where human-robot collaboration provides potential benefits, understanding complex human behaviour will promote greater success. We propose that robots need to be equipped with embodi... Read More about Towards model-based robot behaviour adaptation: Successful human-robot collaboration in tense and stressful situations.

Robot-assisted system for joint fracture surgery (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Incidence of fractures is steadily increasing and is expected that in 2025, Germany will have the largest number of fractures per year in Europe (≈928,000), followed by the UK (≈682,000) (Hernlund 2013). This work is concerned with distal-femur-fract... Read More about Robot-assisted system for joint fracture surgery.

Force-torque measurement system For fracture surgery (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Many surgical procedures are now performed using the techniques of minimally invasive surgery (MIS), in which the surgeon manipulates instruments inserted into the patients through small incisions. In MIS, the surgeon has no direct contact with inter... Read More about Force-torque measurement system For fracture surgery.

Systematic review of thermoplastic masks versus alternative immobilisation methods in head and neck irradiation (2014)
Journal Article

Is a thermoplastic mask versus an alternative immobilisation effective in increasing reproducibility and comfort in head and neck patients receiving radiotherapy?
