Creating new methods of diagnosing bone disease in children
Sheffield Children's Hospital identified a need to develop new equipment with Sheffield Hallam University to monitor the bone mineral density (BMD) in children less than four years old.
-
Human-Robot Interaction
CARR includes years of experience with direct ('in-the-field') human robot interaction as well as assistive robotics and robotic machines and aids in dangerous or low-visibility conditions
-
Medical Image Processing and Visualisation
A software for automatically segmenting dissimilar regions in medical images acquired with magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography or ultrasonography has been developed and implemented
-
Robotic Evolutionary Self-Programming and Self-Assembling Organisms
The REPLICATOR project started in March 2008 under the European Union's 7th framework programme, in the theme of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)
-
Smart Interactive Technologies
This research group is interested in innovative research and developments investigating all the aspects of modelling and applying physical and intelligent systems, which coexist harmoniously with people and other artificial agents in complex real-world environments
-
The REINS Project
The REINS Project aims to develop a semi-autonomous mobile robot with sensory capabilities that can be shared with humans
