Abstract:
Human-Centered Robotics aims to use robotic devices to improve our life. In Europe alone, around 650.000 people live with limb amputations, 40 Mio. have jobs with high of lumbar injuries, and 40 Mio. are 80+ years. Worldwide, active prostheses, exoskeletons, and service robots could help improve these people’s lives. However, their adoption is unfortunately strongly hindered by technological limitations in the actuators powering these devices. Backdrivability characterizes an actuator’s ability to be driven from the load side, and it is a crucial property to enabling capable human-centered rob

Abstract:
Over the last years, capabilities of robotic systems have quantitatively and qualitatively improved. But going beyond isolated robotic systems, the integration and interoperability of robotic capabilities in complex work processes remains a major challenge. This lack of tools to integrate robots needs to be addressed on technical, semantic and organizational level. In the ROBxTASK research project, we developed an approach to support cooperation between different types of users in order to enable domain experts, with no robotic know-how, to work with robot-assisted workflows.

Abstract:
SUMMARYWe present a review of recent activities in swarm robotic research, and analyse existing literature in the field to determine how to get closer to a practical swarm robotic system for real world applications. We begin with a discussion of the importance of swarm robotics by illustrating the wide applicability of robot swarms in various tasks. Then a brief overview of various robotic devices that can be incorporated into swarm robotic systems is presented. We identify and describe the challenges that should be resolved when designing swarm robotic systems for real world applications. Fin

Abstract:
AbstractSagittal deformity of the knee is commonly corrected to neutral biomechanical axis (±3 degrees) during total knee arthroplasty (TKA), which is a widely accepted goal. Recent advances in surgical technology have made it possible to accurately plan and fulfill these goals. One of these is robotic-assisted TKA, which has been noted to help increase accuracy and precision of restoring a neutral mechanical axis. While there are data confirming the ability of robotic devices to better correct knee alignment than the manual technique, there is a lack of data concerning the use of the robotic

Abstract:
Current robotic systems have achieved great sophistication in kinematic motion, control, and neural processing. One of the most challenging limitations imposed on modern robotics is the portable power source needed to sustain tether-free operation. Energy storage devices such as batteries and combustion engines may be heavy, require a great deal of space, and invariably have a finite energy capacity. Methods to control such devices may also impose limitations as most robotic systems rely on either tethered or radiative communication. The unavoidable repercussion of these limitations is the ult

Innovation in industry is the organization of the principles of operation of robotic devices in accordance with the new challenges of modern times. This is due to the distortion and noise contamination of signals during the transmission of information in the control systems of robotic devices operating in conditions of uncertainty. Therefore, one of the main requirements of the industry is to build innovative robotic systems with high robustness, adaptability and stability that can adapt to any conditions.

This address will briefly consider the challenges and opportunities that arise from the integration of affect into robotic systems. Six challenge areas are identified as of particular relevance to robotics engineers. The first challenge is to sufficiently refine the display of affect by mechanical devices to give the impression or appearance of emotional engagement. The second challenge is to recognise affect as displayed by others, most particularly by human users. These two challenges relate primarily to the presentation of affect, there are related questions about how to best use it. It is

Abstract Varying device stiffness on purpose can provide safety and performance improvements in interventions involving flexible minimal-invasive surgical robotic devices. For example, when flexible robotic devices are used for inserting minimal-invasive tools along curved paths into the knee joint for arthroscopy, a high device stiffness can allow precise path following where desirable. In contrast, when the minimalinvasive flexible device has reached its desired location inside the patient’s body, decoupling the surgical tool (end-effector) from the flexible robotic insertion device can be b

The application of robotic devices in providing physiotherapies to post-stroke patients and people suffering from incomplete spinal cord injuries is rapidly expanding. It is crucial to provide valid rehabilitation for people who are experiencing abnormality in their gait performance; therefore, design and development of newer robotic devices for the purpose of facilitating patients’ recovery is being actively researched. In order to advance the traditional gait treatment among patients, exoskeletons and orthoses were introduced over the last two decades. This article presents a thorough review

Devices such as canes and wheelchairs, used to assist locomotion, have remained mostly unchanged for centuries. Recent advances in robotics have the potential to develop smart versions of these devices that can offer better support and living conditions to their users. This is the underlying objective of this project. The existing devices, used during recovery and rehabilitation phases where gait stability is key, are often bulky and cannot be easily migrated from hospital to domestic environments, where maneuvering space tends to be restricted.

Record-replay testing is widely used in mobile app testing as an automated testing method. However, the current record-replay methods are closely dependent on the internal information of the device or app under test. Due to the diversity of mobile devices and system platforms, their practical use is limited. To break this limitation, this paper proposes an entirely black-box learning-replay testing approach by combining robotics and vision technology to achieve a record-replay testing that can support cross-device and cross-platform.
