Two n e w modes of real-t ime collision avoidance are presented wh.ich aid in the e.ffectiveness of remote tele-operation. S t i cky coll ision mode improves s y s t e m safety by disallowing contact wi th modelled obstacles. Slippery mode is used t o improve the eff iciency of -the process by reducing t h e required level of operator skill. B o t h modes execute an real-t ime and have been amp...

Effectiveness of rehabilitation process is undeniable in many musculoskeletal and joint conditions. There are increasing evidences that elecronic visits and tele-rehabalition programs are useful. When social distancing policies limit orthopedic surgeons to use hospital or clinic-based rehabilitation, developing of Home-based & Tele-rehabilitation modalities are highly recommended by Orthopedic ...

BACKGROUND Australia's health disparity, combined with evolving technologies, has evoked increasing interest and funding in health services that could address inequities. One such emerging service is tele-medicine. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this report is to discuss and evaluate the current literature regarding patient and practitioner satisfaction with tele-medicine, and more specifically tel...

We propose a new framework for Internet-based telepresence, in which the participants collaboratively experience and effect events at a remote site.. The system combines a remote agent (the “Tele-Actor”) with distributed audience control (the “Tele-Directors”). This framework allows the remote group of Tele-Directors not only to view but to vote on commands and thereby to participate in the Tel...

OBJECTIVE We report our experience with tele-echocardiography and echocardiograms recorded digitally or on videotape (recorded-echos) at The University of Arizona from August 2006 to December 2010 and compare their quality and diagnostic accuracy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Tele-echocardiograms (tele-echos) were transmitted from the Yuma Regional Medical Center to The University of Arizona via a T...

Su objetivo es el estudio de procesos que tienen restricción en tiempo para su ejecución y los cuales típicamente se asocian a dispositivos autónomos. En este laboratorio se usa la computadora para medir, observar, monitorear, controlar y optimizar procesos, así como el trabajo que tiene restricciones de tiempo para su finalización o ejecución. Incluye tele-monitoreo, tele-adquisición de datos ...
