Developing an Upper Limb Kinematics Database of Activities of Daily Living.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Open-access databases can facilitate data sharing among researchers and provide normative data for objective clinical assessment development, robotic design, and biomechanical modeling. However, most existing databases focus on gait, balance, and han...

An ISB-consistent Denavit-Hartenberg model of the human upper limb for joint kinematics optimization: validation on synthetic and robot data during a typical rehabilitation gesture.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Several biomedical contexts such as diagnosis, rehabilitation, and ergonomics require an accurate estimate of human upper limbs kinematics. Wearable inertial measurement units (IMU s) represent a suitable solution because of their unobtrusiveness, po...

Reconstruction of Flight Parameters of a Bat for Flapping Robots.

Journal of biomechanical engineering
The flight of bats is comparatively less documented and understood than birds and insects and may provide novel inspiration for the design of flapping flight robots. This study captured the natural flight of short-nosed fruit bats (Cynopterus sphinx)...

[Gait Measurement System Using Laser Range Sensor Based on Lower-limb Rehabilitation Robot].

Zhongguo yi liao qi xie za zhi = Chinese journal of medical instrumentation
Spatiotemporal gait parameters provide important information for the rehabilitation of patients with gait dysfunction. These parameters are often obtained by complex systems such as optical motioncapture system and pressure plates. However, these sys...

[Mechanical Design and Research of Wearable Exoskeleton Assisted Robot for Upper Limb Rehabilitation].

Zhongguo yi liao qi xie za zhi = Chinese journal of medical instrumentation
Based on the biomechanical mechanism of human upper limb, the disadvantages of traditional rehabilitation training and the current status of upper limb rehabilitation robot, a six degree of freedom, flexible adjustment, wearable upper limb rehabilita...

A path planning method of 6-DOF robot for mirror therapy based on A* algorithm.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
BACKGROUND: With the population aging, post-stroke patients suffering from hemiplegia are also rapidly increasing. It is essential to provide valid rehabilitation methods for hemiplegia patients. Mirror therapy is an effective rehabilitation method a...

Gait changes following robot-assisted gait training in children with cerebral palsy.

Physiological research
This study investigated changes of gait pattern induced by a 4-week robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) in twelve ambulatory spastic diparesis children with cerebral palsy (CP) aged 10.4+/-3.2 years old by using computerized gait analysis (CGA). Pre-...

A Single RGB Camera Based Gait Analysis With A Mobile Tele-Robot For Healthcare.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
With the increasing awareness of high-quality life, there is a growing need for health monitoring devices running robust algorithms in home environment. Health monitoring technologies enable real-time analysis of users' health status, offering long-t...

Kinematics Constraint Modeling for Flexible Robots based on Deep Learning.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Application of flexible robotic systems and teleoperated control recently used in minimally invasive surgery have introduced paradigm shift in interventional surgery. While Prototypes of flexible robots have been proposed for surgical diagnostic and ...
