Towards quantifying dynamic human-human physical interactions for robot assisted stroke therapy.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Human-Robot Interaction is a prominent field of robotics today. Knowledge of human-human physical interaction can prove vital in creating dynamic physical interactions between human and robots. Most of the current work in studying this interaction ha...

Robotic learning from demonstration of therapist's time-varying assistance to a patient in trajectory-following tasks.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
The number of people with physical disabilities and impaired motion control is increasing. Consequently, there is a growing demand for intelligent assistive robotic systems to cooperate with people with disability and help them carry out different ta...

Soft brain-machine interfaces for assistive robotics: A novel control approach.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Robotic systems offer the possibility of improving the life quality of people with severe motor disabilities, enhancing the individual's degree of independence and interaction with the external environment. In this direction, the operator's residual ...

Simulation-based design for robotic care device: Optimizing trajectory of transfer support robot.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
This paper presents a framework of simulation-based design for robotic care devices developed to reduce the burden of caregiver and care receivers. First, physical interaction between the user and device is quantitatively estimated by using a digital...

Probabilistic vs linear blending approaches to shared control for wheelchair driving.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Some people with severe mobility impairments are unable to operate powered wheelchairs reliably and effectively, using commercially available interfaces. This has sparked a body of research into "smart wheelchairs", which assist users to drive safely...

Compensating for telecommunication delays during robotic telerehabilitation.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Rehabilitation robotic systems may afford better care and telerehabilitation may extend the use and benefits of robotic therapy to the home. Data transmissions over distance are bound by intrinsic communication delays which can be significant enough ...

Adding navigation, artificial audition and vital sign monitoring capabilities to a telepresence mobile robot for remote home care applications.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
A telepresence mobile robot is a remote-controlled, wheeled device with wireless internet connectivity for bidirectional audio, video and data transmission. In health care, a telepresence robot could be used to have a clinician or a caregiver assist ...

Intuitive adaptive orientation control of assistive robots for people living with upper limb disabilities.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Robotic assistive devices enhance the autonomy of individuals living with physical disabilities in their day-to-day life. Although the first priority for such devices is safety, they must also be intuitive and efficient from an engineering point of v...

VIBROfocus: Design of a focal vibro-tactile robotic-assistive system for spasticity rehabilitation.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
The main focus of spasticity treatment is to alleviate pain, improve function and reduce risk of additional complications. In this paper the design of a robotic system with enhanced focal vibro-tactile stimulation for the treatment of spasticity in t...

EMU: A transparent 3D robotic manipulandum for upper-limb rehabilitation.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
This paper introduces the EMU, a three-dimensional robotic manipulandum for rehabilitation of the upper extremity for patients with neurological injury. The device has been designed to be highly transparent, have a large workspace, and allow the use ...
