Sensing small interaction forces through proprioception.

Scientific reports
Understanding the human motor control strategy during physical interaction tasks is crucial for developing future robots for physical human-robot interaction (pHRI). In physical human-human interaction (pHHI), small interaction forces are known to co...

Combined Feedback Feedforward Control of a 3-Link Musculoskeletal System Based on the Iterative Training Method.

BioMed research international
The investigation and study of the limbs, especially the human arm, have inspired a wide range of humanoid robots, such as movement and muscle redundancy, as a human motor system. One of the main issues related to musculoskeletal systems is the joint...

Cardiorespiratory and metabolic demand of the 6-minute pegboard and ring test in healthy young adults.

Journal of bodywork and movement therapies
OBJECTIVE: To determine the cardiorespiratory and metabolic demand of the Six-Minute Pegboard and Ring Test (6PBRT) in healthy young adults and its association with maximal arm cycle ergometer test (arm CET).

Path Driven Dual Arm Mobile Co-Manipulation Architecture for Large Part Manipulation in Industrial Environments.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Collaborative part transportation is an interesting application as many industrial sectors require moving large parts among different areas of the workshops, using a large amount of the workforce on this tasks. Even so, the implementation of such kin...

Robot-assisted arm therapy in neurological health conditions: rationale and methodology for the evidence synthesis in the CICERONE Italian Consensus Conference.

European journal of physical and rehabilitation medicine
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted Arm Therapy (RAT) has been increasingly applied in the last years for promoting functional recovery in patients with disabilities related to neurological health conditions. Evidence of a knowledge-to-action gap for applying...

Clinical validation of kinematic assessments of post-stroke upper limb movements with a multi-joint arm exoskeleton.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: The clinical evaluation of the upper limb of severely impaired stroke patient is challenging. Sensor-based assessments may allow for an objective evaluation of this patient population. This study investigated the validity of a device-assi...

Customizing Robot-Assisted Passive Neurorehabilitation Exercise Based on Teaching Training Mechanism.

BioMed research international
Passive movement is an important mean of rehabilitation for stroke survivors in the early stage or with greater paralysis. The upper extremity robot is required to assist therapists with passive movement during clinical rehabilitation, while customiz...

A Deep Learning Approach for Table Tennis Forehand Stroke Evaluation System Using an IMU Sensor.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
Psychological and behavioral evidence suggests that home sports activity reduces negative moods and anxiety during lockdown days of COVID-19. Low-cost, nonintrusive, and privacy-preserving smart virtual-coach Table Tennis training assistance could he...

Real-time optimization of an ellipsoidal trajectory orientation using muscle effort with Extremum Seeking Control.

Medical engineering & physics
We present an approach for real-time model-free optimization of the orientation of the elliptical trajectory. The performance is evaluated in simulation and experimental stages. Our model-free approach is based on the use of Extremum Seeking Control ...

Robotic D2 Total Gastrectomy with Fluorescent Lymphatic Mapping for Gastric Cancer: Effective Use of the 4th Arm.

Journal of gastrointestinal surgery : official journal of the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract
Minimally invasive surgery techniques have evolved remarkably over the past few decades in the field of surgical oncology, including robotic techniques for gastric malignancies. Bedside surgical assistance is often limited by operating table space or...
