Fall detection algorithms for real-world falls harvested from lumbar sensors in the elderly population: a machine learning approach.
Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Aug 1, 2016
Automatic fall detection will promote independent living and reduce the consequences of falls in the elderly by ensuring people can confidently live safely at home for linger. In laboratory studies inertial sensor technology has been shown capable of...
Flexible sliding frame for gait enhancing mechatronic system (GEMS).
Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Aug 1, 2016
This paper presents a novel flexible sliding thigh frame for a gait enhancing mechatronic system. With its two-layered unique structure, the frame is flexible in certain locations and directions, and stiff at certain other locations, so that it can f...
Design of a thumb module for the FINGER rehabilitation robot.
Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Aug 1, 2016
This paper describes the design and initial prototype of a thumb curling exoskeleton for movement therapy. This add-on device for the Finger INdividuating Grasp Exercise Robot (FINGER) guides the thumb through a single-degree-of-freedom naturalistic ...
Phototactic guidance of a tissue-engineered soft-robotic ray.
Science (New York, N.Y.)
Jul 8, 2016
Inspired by the relatively simple morphological blueprint provided by batoid fish such as stingrays and skates, we created a biohybrid system that enables an artificial animal--a tissue-engineered ray--to swim and phototactically follow a light cue. ...
Dynamic Parameter Identification of Subject-Specific Body Segment Parameters Using Robotics Formalism: Case Study Head Complex.
Journal of biomechanical engineering
May 1, 2016
Accurate knowledge of body segment inertia parameters (BSIP) improves the assessment of dynamic analysis based on biomechanical models, which is of paramount importance in fields such as sport activities or impact crash test. Early approaches for BSI...
Study of human walking patterns based on the parameter optimization of a passive dynamic walking robot.
Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
Apr 29, 2016
BACKGROUND: The study of human walking patterns mainly focuses on how control affects walking because control schemes are considered to be dominant in human walking.
Biomechanics of Step Initiation After Balance Recovery With Implications for Humanoid Robot Locomotion.
Journal of biomechanical engineering
Mar 1, 2016
Balance-recovery stepping is often necessary for both a human and humanoid robot to avoid a fall by taking a single step or multiple steps after an external perturbation. The determination of where to step to come to a complete stop has been studied,...
Robot-assisted gait training versus treadmill training in patients with Parkinson's disease: a kinematic evaluation with gait profile score.
Functional neurology
Jan 1, 2016
The purpose of this study was to quantitatively compare the effects, on walking performance, of end-effector robotic rehabilitation locomotor training versus intensive training with a treadmill in Parkinson's disease (PD). Fifty patients with PD were...
Analysis of reaching movements of upper arm in robot assisted exercises. Kinematic assessment of robot assisted upper arm reaching single-joint movements.
Giornale italiano di medicina del lavoro ed ergonomia
Jan 1, 2016
Robot-mediated therapy (RMT) has been a very dynamic area of research in recent years. Robotics devices are in fact capable to quantify the performances of a rehabilitation task in treatments of several disorders of the arm and the shoulder of variou...
