The VUB AI-lab team is mainly interested in the two loosely linked aspects of on-board control and heterogeneity. One major effort for forstering both aspects within RoboCup’s small robots league is our development of a so-to-say robot constructionkit, allowing to implement a wide range of players with onboard control. For the ’99 competition, the existing RoboCube controller-hardware has been ...

In conjunction with BBC Lab UK, the present study developed 12 brief psychological skill interventions for online delivery. A protocol was designed that captured data via self-report measures, used video recordings to deliver interventions, involved a competitive concentration task against an individually matched computer opponent, and provided feedback on the effects of the interventions. Thre...

PURPOSE The percutaneous renal access (PRA) is the most critical step of percutaneous renal surgery (PRS). For the training of PRA in the lab, a novel non-biological bench model was developed and set for validation test. MATERIALS AND METHODS Experts in PRS (> 60 cases) and novices were included to perform fluoroscopy guided PRA on the model. Overall time, X-ray exposure time and puncture att...
