Telerehabilitation robotics: Bright lights, big future?

Telerehabilitation robotics: bright lights, big future?

The potential for remote diagnosis and treatment over the Internet using robotics is now a reality. The state of the art is exemplified by several Internet applications, and we explore the current trends in developing new systems. We review the technical challenges that lie ahead, along with some potential solutions. Some promising results for a new bilateral system involving two InMotion2 robo...

How Dark Is Dark? Bright Lights, Big City, Racial Profiling

Grogger and Ridgeway (2006) develop a feasible test for racial profiling "behind a veil of darkness" that exploits the exogenous variability in the visibility of driver race caused by the daylight savings time shift.
