Hybrid Articulated Robotic Systems for Safe Human-Robot Collaboration
Research Group:
Intelligent Systems and Robotics
Articulated joints make up much of the conventional robotic systems, however, the rigidity of these systems despite artificially enhanced safety through algorithms remains a safety concern owing to critical algorithmic limitations and failures. Read more
Development of a robotic device for Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery
Research Group:
Intelligent Systems and Robotics
Up to 25% of patients who undergo Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery report unsatisfactory functional outcomes (Lord et al., 2019). Read more
Electrifying Cells! Exploring the role of bioelectronic stimulation and bioelectric signalling, with a focus on influencing stem cell behaviour
Electrical stimulation of cells and tissues has been observed to help with healing processes, for example in bone regeneration. Within the NHS, some fracture clinics use electrical stimulation as a to promote healing, often when other methods fail. Read more
Information retrieval from room acoustic measurements
Acoustic measurements of rooms carry a lot of useful information regarding the room geometry, objects and furnishing, presence and movements of humans, and the atmospheric conditions and stability of the room environment. Read more
Autonomous Robots for Manipulating Hazardous Substances
If you are interested in robotics, and have strong programming and software engineering skills, this could be a project for you. Successful completion of this project could lead to career prospects inside the UKAEA. Supervision will be provided jointly by the Department of Computer Science at the University of York and the UKAEA/RACE. Read more
Automated field testing with Humans in the Loop of an Autonomous UAV for Emergency Relief
Motivation and problem statement. Mobile and autonomous robots have the perspective of relieving humans from dull, dangerous, and dirty activities. Read more
