Robotic manipulation, especially of fragile and irregularly shaped objects, remains a significant challenge due to the need for both adaptability and precise tactile feedback. In this work, we introduce INTACT-GRIP, a robotic gripper that combines soft manipulation and high-resolution tactile sensin…
In this study, we introduce a new concept for reconstruction of Volumetric Muscle Loss (VML) injuries and propose the spatial robotic embedded bioprinting technique. As opposed to the traditional layer-by-layer printing, we leverage the support-free nature of embedded bioprinting to print spatial an
To address the screw loosening and pullout limitations of rigid pedicle screws in spinal fixation procedures, and to leverage our recently developed Concentric Tube Steerable Drilling Robot (CT-SDR) and Flexible Pedicle Screw (FPS), in this paper, we introduce the concept of Augmented Bridge Spinal

Aiming at developing a safe, intuitive, and collaborative steerable drilling robotic system for pedicle screw fixation procedures, in this paper, we leverage our recently developed steerable drilling robotic framework, and developed a collaborative drilling mode to control this system. In this contr
Tissue engineering techniques and particularly <i>in situ</i> bioprinting using handheld devices and robotic systems have recently demonstrated promising outcomes to address volumetric muscle loss injuries. Nevertheless, these approaches suffer from insufficient printing precision and/or lack of qua
