Intelligent Micro/Nanorobots for Targeted Interventional Therapy: From Bench to Clinic

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Zirui Zhang et al. reviewed the application and challenges of mobile nanomachines in interventional therapy. By converting exogenous energy, including chemical, magnetic, optical, and ultrasonic sources, into mechanical forces, micro/nanorobots (MNRs) enable precise actuation at unprecedented scales. Evolving far beyond traditional drug delivery, these

The Influence of Pelvic Tilt on the Anteversion Angle of the Acetabular Prosthesis

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, 2019
The concept of the “safe area” of the acetabular prosthesis has a long history and has been recognized by many scholars. It is generally believed that postoperative hip dislocation rate is low, when the acetabular anteversion angle is placed in the range

Data-Mined Continuous Hip-Knee Coordination Mapping With Motion Lag for Lower-Limb Prosthesis Control

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2022
Trajectory planning of the knee joint plays an essential role in controlling the lower limb prosthesis. Nowadays, the idea of mapping the trajectory of the healthy limb to the motion trajectory of the prosthetic joint has begun to emerge.

Time History Gaussian Process Regression for Modeling the Dynamics of Ankle Exoskeleton User Comfort

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Exoskeletons need to be comfortable, but the perception of comfort may change over time. This study investigated if short‐term time history directly influences comfort. No previous trials’ input features were predictive of comfort. Including the previous trial's comfort score marginally improved model accuracy compared to a model using only the current
