Eligibility and Requirements
This paper presents a gesture-controlled robotic arm system designed for agricultural harvesting, utilizing a data glove equipped with bending sensors and OptiTrack systems. The system aims to address the challenges of labor-intensive fruit harvestin...
Vibration-assisted micro milling is a promising technique for fabricating engineered mi-cro-scaled surface textures. This paper presents a novel approach for theoretical modeling of three-dimensional (3D) surface textures produced by vibration-assist...
The microvasculature, which makes up the majority of the cardiovascular system, plays a crucial role in the process of thrombosis, with the pathological formation of blood clots inside blood vessels. Since blood microflow conditions significantly inf...
For the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients, the regular assessment of the immune status is indispensable. The quantification of CD4+ T lymphocytes in blood by gold standard optical flow cytometry is not point-of-care te...
Magnetic microgrippers, with their miniaturized size, flexible movement, untethered actuation, and programmable deformation, can perform tasks such as cell manipulation, targeted drug delivery, biopsy, and minimally invasive surgery in hard-to-reach...
