DroneStick: Flying Joystick as a Novel Type of Interface
Evgeny Tsykunov, Aleksey Fedoseev, Ekaterina Dorzhieva +5
DroneStick is a novel hands-free method for smooth interaction between a human and a robotic system via one of its agents, without training and any additional handheld or wearable…
Can a Tesla Turbine be Utilised as a Non-Magnetic Actuator for MRI-Guided Robotic Interventions?
David Navarro-Alarcon, Luiza Labazanova, Man Kiu Chow +2
This paper introduces a new type of nonmagnetic actuator for MRI interventions. Ultrasonic and piezoelectric motors are one the most commonly used actuators in MRI applications. Ho…
A Novel Approach to Model the Kinematics of Human Fingers Based on an Elliptic Multi-Joint Configuration
Zeyu Wu, Luiza Labazanova, Peng Zhou +1
In this paper, we present a novel kinematic model of the human phalanges based on the elliptical motion of their joints. The presence of the soft elastic tissues and the general an…
Bio-Inspired Design of Artificial Striated Muscles Composed of Sarcomere-Like Contraction Units (preprint)
Luiza Labazanova, Zeyu Wu, Zhengping Gu +1
Biological muscles have always attracted robotics researchers due to their efficient capabilities in compliance, force generation, and mechanical work. Many groups are working on t…
