- To integrate and to empower: Robots for rehabilitation and assistance
Future assistive technologies will not only compensate for human disability but also drive capacities beyond innate levels.
Focus
- Transparent, explainable, and accountable AI for robotics
Fair, accountable AI and robotics need precise regulation and better methods to certify, explain, and audit inscrutable systems.
- Reducing the metabolic cost of running with a tethered soft exosuit
A tethered exosuit reduces the metabolic cost of running.
Research Article
- On prosthetic control: A regenerative agonist-antagonist myoneural interface
The agonist-antagonist myoneural interface enables bidirectional signaling for enhanced prosthetic control and sensation.
- Robot-induced perturbations of human walking reveal a selective generation of motor adaptation
An exoskeleton reveals that walking humans adapt to changes in step length and height by maximizing locomotor stability.
