For about 10 years, researchers at the University of Washington’s Personal Robotics Lab have been developing a robotic arm that can help people with motor impairments, such as quadriplegics, feed ...
Up until recently, this work has mostly been evaluated in the lab. But last year, researchers deployed the assistive feeding ...
A team led by researchers at the University of Washington created a set of 11 actions a robotic arm can make to pick up nearly any food attainable by fork. This allows the system to learn to pick up ...

BabyBot: Robotic infant replicates feeding behaviors, can lead to medical breakthroughs
Researchers have developed BabyBot, a groundbreaking soft robotic infant designed to mimic early feeding behaviors and oral motor development. Engineered with a sensorized mouth, soft robotic tongue, ...
(WTNH) — Independence can mean different things to different people. When it comes to those with disabilities, assistive technology means everything. November is Assistive Technology Awareness Month.
Two robotic arms – a fork in one hand, a knife in the other – flank a seated man, who sits in front of a table, with a piece of cake on a plate. A computerized voice announces each action: "moving ...
In brief: Brain-computer interfaces have recently seen promising advancements, often intersecting with prostheses. Tests have shown patients controlling computers with their minds and regaining lost ...
A new study published in Frontiers in Neurorobotics demonstrates how a brain-computer interface enabled a quadriplegic man to feed himself for the first time in three decades by operating two robotic ...
