Scenarios: Uncharted Waters Ahead

Autonomous Computer Vision-Assisted Robotic Vehicle

Autonomous robotic vehicle are robots which can perform certain desired tasks in a dynamic environment without human guidance to a certain degree. Most autonomous robots rely heavily on readily available off-the-shelf sensors to perform navigation. The research published here shows a glimpse of an innovative application of image processing in future robotic vehicles, which are capable of making...

Digital Health Innovation: A Toolkit to Navigate From Concept to Clinical Testing

Digital health technologies such as smartphone apps, Web-based platforms, and wearable devices are rapidly emerging as promising interventions for acute and chronic disease management, particularly in the field of cardiovascular medicine. However, there is limited guidance on how to effectively develop and rigorously test digital health interventions (DHIs). Through our experience with innovati...

Addressing Global Data Sharing Challenges

This issue of the Journal of Empirical Research on Human Research Ethics highlights the ethical issues that arise when researchers conducting projects in low- and middle-income countries seek to share the data they produce. Although sharing data is considered a best practice, the barriers to doing so are considerable and there is a need for guidance and examples. To that end, the authors of thi...
