The application of XR in mental health care
The past two decades have witnessed the emergence of extended reality as a tool for investigation, assessment, and management in mental healthcare.
Simulator helps robots sharpen their cutting skills
A simulation engine predicts the forces acting on a knife as it cuts through soft materials, a capability that could have applications for safer surgical robotics.
Bionic eye: Computer model fosters improvements
Researchers develop signals that could bring color vision and improved clarity to prosthesis for the blind.
Robot toys provide clues about infant development
New research shows that using robots could help detect early signs of autism or ADHD in infants.
Augmented reality glasses as low vision aid
Researchers found that adapted augmented reality glasses can improve patients’ mobility by 50% and grasp performance by 70%.
AI used to screen for FASD
Scientists have developed a new tool that can screen children for fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) quickly and affordably.
Robotic partial nephrectomy benefits patients with kidney cancer
Robotic partial nephrectomy results in better outcomes than either open or laparoscopic partial nephrectomy for patients with early kidney cancer.
Smart insole could detect an infection
Researchers are working on a smart insole that flags changes in a patient’s gait, activity level and balance, as well as monitors for the localized increase in heat that can reveal a building infection before the human eye can spot it.
