MARSBot: A Bristle-Bot Microrobot with Augmented Reality Steering Control for Wireless Structural Health Monitoring.
Article in Micromachines, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Microrobots are effective for monitoring infrastructure in narrow spaces. However, they have limited computing power, and most of them are not wireless and stable enough for accessing infrastructure in difficult-to-reach areas. In this paper, we describe the fabrication of a microrobot with bristle-bot locomotion using a novel centrifugal yaw-steering control scheme. The microrobot operates in a network consisting of an augmented reality headset and an access point to monitor infrastructures using augmented reality (AR) haptic controllers for human-robot collaboration. For the development of the microrobot, the dynamics of bristle-bots in several conditions were studied, and multiple additive manufacturing processes were investigated to develop the most suitable prototype for structural health monitoring. Using the proposed network, visual data are sent in real time to a hub connected to an AR headset upon request, which can be utilized by the operator to monitor and make decisions in the field. This allows the operators wearing an AR headset to inspect the exterior of a structure with their eyes, while controlling the surveying robot to monitor the interior side of the structure.
