Real-time electromagnetic tracking of orthopaedic pins for robot-assisted fracture surgery (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Martins, B., Dagnino, G., & Dogramadzi, S. (2018, September). Real-time electromagnetic tracking of orthopaedic pins for robot-assisted fracture surgery. Presented at Computer and Robot Assisted Surgery (CRAS), London, England

Tracking devices are an essential component in image guided surgery particularly when precise treatment or implant positioning are required. In this paper we explore the use of an electromagnetic tracking device (Polaris Aurora, NDI Inc.) as an alter...

Ethical considerations of (contextually) affective robot behaviour (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Van Maris, A., Zook, N., Caleb-Solly, P., Studley, M., Winfield, A., & Dogramadzi, S. (2018). Ethical considerations of (contextually) affective robot behaviour. In Proceedings of the International Conference on Robot Ethics and Standards. https://doi.org/10.13180/icres.2018.20-21.08.002

The use of social robots can bring many benefits, but raises ethical concerns as well. One of these concerns, emotional deception, was investigated in this research. First, affective robot behaviour is validated, followed by a user study to investiga... Read More about Ethical considerations of (contextually) affective robot behaviour.
