An All‐Fabric Wearable System for Human‐Machine Interaction

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
An all‐fabric sensing system enables wearable human–machine interaction through a breathable, stretchable, and scalable design. The all‐fabric capacitive sensor achieves a gauge factor of 2.03 over 72% strain and supports body‐motion tracking, 90.5% hand gesture recognition, and real‐time prosthetic hand control, demonstrating a promising pathway ...

Soft Robotic Excretory Care Simulator for Nursing Education: Functional and Perceptual Biomimetics Approach

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A soft robotic simulator is developed to replicate the digital removal of feces (DRF), a sensitive yet essential nursing procedure. Integrating soft actuators, sensors, and a realistic rectal model, the simulator balances functional fidelity with perceptual realism. Engineering evaluations and nurse feedback confirm its potential to enhance training in

From Rigid to Soft Robotic Approaches for Neuroendoscopy

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robotic assistance has had minimal impact on deep intraventricular surgeries, where small‐scale, precision, and reduced invasiveness can contribute to improved patient outcomes. Emerging technologies in rigid, soft, and hybrid robotics are reviewed to identify the most promising mechanisms for deep brain navigation in addition to an attempt to identify

The Relationship between Postural Stability and Lower-Limb Muscle Activity Using an Entropy-Based Similarity Index

Entropy, 2018
The aim of this study is to see if the centre of pressure (COP) measurements on the postural stability can be used to represent the electromyography (EMG) measurement on the activity data of lower limb muscles.
