In vivo feasibility study of humanoid robots in surgery
Zekai Liang, Nikita Thareja, Peihan Zhang +7
Recent advances in actuation, control and learning have rapidly pushed humanoid robots from a distant vision towards near-term real-world deployment. Healthcare is a particularly p…
ARCSnake V2: Mechanical Adaptations For An Amphibious Multi-Domain Screw-Propelled Snake-Like Robot
Sara Wickenhiser, Lizzie Peiros, Calvin Joyce +8
Robotic exploration in extreme environments, such as caves, oceans, and extraplanetary surfaces, poses significant challenges, specifically locomotion across diverse terrains. Conv…
Humanoids in Hospitals: A Technical Study of Humanoid Robot Surrogates for Dexterous Medical Interventions
Soofiyan Atar, Xiao Liang, Calvin Joyce +5
The increasing demand for healthcare workers, driven by aging populations and labor shortages, presents a significant challenge for hospitals. Humanoid robots have the potential to…
Haptic Shoulder for Rendering Biomechanically Accurate Joint Limits for Human-Robot Physical Interactions
Elizabeth Peiros, Calvin Joyce, Tarun Murugesan +4
Human-robot physical interaction (pHRI) is a rapidly evolving research field with significant implications for physical therapy, search and rescue, and telemedicine. However, a maj…
NASU -- Novel Actuating Screw Unit: Origami-inspired Screw-based Propulsion on Mobile Ground Robots
Calvin Joyce, Jason Lim, Roger Nguyen +5
Screw-based locomotion is a robust method of locomotion across a wide range of media including water, sand, and gravel. A challenge with screws is their significant number of impac…
Mobility Analysis of Screw-Based Locomotion and Propulsion in Various Media
Jason Lim, Calvin Joyce, Elizabeth Peiros +6
Robots "in-the-wild" encounter and must traverse widely varying terrain, ranging from solid ground to granular materials like sand to full liquids. Numerous approaches exist, inclu…
