As robots increasingly integrate into collaborative and assistive environments, interpretation of natural gesture becomes crucial for effective and efficient human-robot interaction. While vision-based gesture recognition systems face privacy concerns and performance limitations under occlusion and
Collaborative robotics have the potential to advance the new era of industry by optimizing systems through effective human-robot interaction. Reliable, real-time human detection is essential in this context. In this letter, the authors present a computationally-efficient transformer-based deep learn
Soft robots have been leveraged in considerable areas like surgery, rehabilitation, and bionics due to their softness, flexibility, and safety. However, it is challenging to produce two same soft robots even with the same mold and manufacturing process owing to the complexity of soft materials. Mean
Screening of the lower gastrointestinal (GI) tract is of paramount importance for the early detection of precancerous lesions in the intestine, with an impact on reducing the high death rate of patients affected by cancer worldwide. Colonoscopy, i.e. standard procedure for screening the colon, is ef…
Flexible Endoscopes (FEs) for colonoscopy present several limitations due to their inherent complexity, resulting in patient discomfort and lack of intuitiveness for clinicians. Robotic FEs with autonomous control represent a viable solution to reduce the workload of endoscopists and the training ti…
Minimally invasive wireless devices, allowing the sampling of gut’s bacteria, are needed for a longitudinal understanding of the role of the microbiota on the human health. Herein, we present a novel magnetic actuation system fitting inside a 11.5 × 30.5 mm wireless ingestible capsule. Lacking any e…
