Percussion hemoglobinuria - a novel term for hand trauma-induced mechanical hemolysis: a case report

INTRODUCTION Extracorpuscular hemolysis caused by mechanical trauma has been well described in relation to lower extremity use, such as in soldiers and runners. Terms such as "march hemoglobinuria", "foot strike hemolysis" and "runners hemoglobinuria" have previously been coined and are easily recalled. Newer cases, however, are being identified in individuals vigorously using their upper extre...

That Syncing Feeling: Networked Strategies for Enabling Ensemble Creativity in iPad Musicians

The group experience of synchronisation is a key aspect of ensemble musical performance. This paper presents a number of strategies for syncing performance information across networked iPad-instruments to enable creativity among an ensemble of improvising musicians. Acoustic instrumentalists sync without mechanical intervention. Electronic instruments frequently synchronise rhythm using MIDI or...

Surgical Robotic Manipulator Based on Local Magnetic Actuation

Magnetic coupling is a strategy to transmit actuation forces across a physical barrier. This approach can be applied to remotely control and manipulate robotic instruments in minimally invasive surgery (MIS) [1]. Interrupting the mechanical continuity of such system by having surgical instruments and laparoscopic camera magnetically coupled across the abdominal wall greatly enhances both the wo...
