What's up?-Resolving interaction ambiguity through non-visual cues for a robotic dressing assistant (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2017 IEEE. Robots that can assist in activities of daily living (ADL) such as dressing assistance, need to be capable of intuitive and safe interaction. Vision systems are often used to provide information on the position and movement of the robot...

Intra-operative fiducial-based CT/fluoroscope image registration framework for image-guided robot-assisted joint fracture surgery (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017, The Author(s). Purpose: Joint fractures must be accurately reduced minimising soft tissue damages to avoid negative surgical outcomes. To this regard, we have developed the RAFS surgical system, which allows the percutaneous reduction of intr...

A quantitative analysis of dressing dynamics for robotic dressing assistance (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 Chance, Jevtić, Caleb-Solly and Dogramadzi. Assistive robots have a great potential to address issues related to an aging population and an increased demand for caregiving. Successful deployment of robots working in close proximity with people... Read More about A quantitative analysis of dressing dynamics for robotic dressing assistance.

Safe human–robot interaction in medical robotics: A case study on robotic fracture surgery system (2017)
Journal Article

This paper presents a safety analysis of a Robotic Fracture Surgery System using the Systems-Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA). It focuses particularly on hazards caused by the human in the loop. The robotic system and operating staff are modeled inc... Read More about Safe human–robot interaction in medical robotics: A case study on robotic fracture surgery system.

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...
