Assessing Human-Human Kinematics for the Implementation of Robot-Assisted Physical Therapy in Humanoids: A Pilot Study.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
The development of humanoids with bimanual manipulator arms may facilitate assistive robots to perform physical therapy with older adults living at home. As we assume the human-human interaction to be the gold standard of physical therapy, we propose...

Validation of the Human Arm Stiffness Estimation Method Developed for Overground Physical Interaction Experiments.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
To build a physically interactive robot for overground applications, it is crucial to first understand the biomechanics of humans underlying overground physical human-robot interaction (pHRI) tasks. Estimating human arm stiffness during overground in...

Convolutional Neural Network for Estimating Spatiotemporal and Kinematic Gait Parameters using a Single Inertial Sensor.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Lower limb disability severely impacts gait, thus requiring clinical interventions. Inertial sensor systems offer the potential for objective monitoring and assessment of gait in and out of the clinic. However, it is imperative such systems are capab...

EEG Cortical Source Feature based Hand Kinematics Decoding using Residual CNN-LSTM Neural Network.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Motor kinematics decoding (MKD) using brain signal is essential to develop Brain-computer interface (BCI) system for rehabilitation or prosthesis devices. Surface electroencephalogram (EEG) signal has been widely utilized for MKD. However, kinematic ...

A Novel Evaluation Index and Optimization Method for Ankle Rehabilitation Robots Based on Ankle-Foot Motion.

Journal of biomechanical engineering
The ability of ankle rehabilitation robots to accurately mimicking the actual human ankle motion is an important judgment basis for robot-assisted rehabilitation training. This paper proposes an evaluation index and mechanism parameter optimization m...

Importance and use of corneal biomechanics and its diagnostic utility.

Cirugia y cirujanos
The study of corneal biomechanics has become relevant in recent years due to its possible applications in the diagnosis, management, and treatment of various diseases such as glaucoma, keratorefractive surgery and different corneal diseases. The clin...

[Follow control of upper limb rehabilitation training based on Kinect and NAO robot].

Sheng wu yi xue gong cheng xue za zhi = Journal of biomedical engineering = Shengwu yixue gongchengxue zazhi
Gesture imitation is a common rehabilitation strategy in limb rehabilitation training. In traditional rehabilitation training, patients need to complete training actions under the guidance of rehabilitation physicians. However, due to the limited res...

Measuring Knee Joint Laxity in Three Degrees-of-Freedom In Vivo Using a Robotics- and Image-Based Technology.

Journal of biomechanical engineering
Accurate and reliable information about three-dimensional (3D) knee joint laxity can prevent misdiagnosis and avoid incorrect treatments. Nevertheless, knee laxity assessments presented in the literature suffer from significant drawbacks such as soft...

[Development of Nasal Continuum Minimally Invasive Surgical Robot System].

Zhongguo yi liao qi xie za zhi = Chinese journal of medical instrumentation
In order to improve the operation difficulties in the narrow space of the nasal maxillary sinus, the nasal continuum minimally invasive surgical robot system is designed. The ball-and-socket joints and NiTiNol tubes are used as the main body of the c...

Modeling the Influence of the Human Form and Ambulation Context on Moment- and Power-Generating Abilities of Soft Hip-Flexion Exosuits.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Exosuits are close-fitting devices, which are meant to be worn without restricting the motion of the user in the way that a rigid device would. These soft devices augment lower-limb biomechanics by using flexible, joint-spanning linear elements that ...
