Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A multimodal quad‐finger soft robotic hand (QDO hand) uses dual‐chamber straight–curved origami prismatic (SCOP) origami actuators. By coordinating positive and negative pressurization in the two chambers, each finger produces axial extension, contraction and bidirectional bending.

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Evidence on developmental milestones in children with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) under the age of five is scarce. This multisite cross‐sectional study described developmental status and examined factors associated with milestone attainment in 143 children aged 0–66 months from a pediatric AMC Registry.

An inverse kinematics algorithm for a highly redundant variable-geometry-truss manipulator [PDF]
A new class of robotic arm consists of a periodic sequence of truss substructures, each of which has several variable-length members. Such variable-geometry-truss manipulator (VGTMs) are inherently highly redundant and promise a significant increase in ...

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Objective The objective of this study was to examine whether machine learning has the capacity to prospectively identify and predict the emergence of Fragile X‐associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) among male fragile X premutation carriers (PCs). Methods We explored neuropsychological and motor evaluation metrics, brain magnetic resonance imaging ...
