A controller of robot constant force grinding based on proximal policy optimization algorithm.

PloS one
In order to solve the problems of high dependence on the accuracy of environmental model and poor environmental adaptability of traditional control methods, the robot constant force grinding controller that based on proximal policy optimization was p...

Effective Autism Classification Through Grasping Kinematics.

Autism research : official journal of the International Society for Autism Research
Autism is a complex neurodevelopmental condition, where motor abnormalities play a central role alongside social and communication difficulties. These motor symptoms often manifest in early childhood, making them critical targets for early diagnosis ...

Development and Validation of the Novel Exergame-Integrated Robotic Stepper Device for Seated Lower Limb Rehabilitation.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Seated rehabilitation is essential in early-stage recovery for patients who can sit but cannot stand or walk. Robotic-based lower limb rehabilitation provides precise, task-specific training for recovery, but its application in seated exercises remai...

Performance Evaluation of Monocular Markerless Pose Estimation Systems for Industrial Exoskeletons.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Industrial exoskeletons (a.k.a. wearable robots) have been developed to reduce musculoskeletal fatigue and work injuries. Human joint kinematics and human-robot alignment are important measurements in understanding the effects of industrial exoskelet...

Flexor Synergy Assessment and Therapy for Persons With Stroke Using the ULIX Low Impedance Robot.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
The flexor synergy after stroke results in involuntary activation of distal muscles when lifting the shoulder against gravity. This contributes to impaired ability to perform activities of daily living. Robotic exoskeletons can be useful in assessing...

Marker based and markerless motion capture for equestrian rider kinematic analysis: A comparative study.

Journal of biomechanics
The study hypothesised that a markerless motion capture system can provide kinematic data comparable to a traditional marker-based system for riders mounted on a horse. The objective was to assess the markerless system's accuracy by directly comparin...

A high-throughput framework for predicting three-dimensional structural-mechanical relationships of human cranial bones using a deep learning-based method.

Journal of the mechanical behavior of biomedical materials
Cranial bone injuries significantly impact human health, potentially leading to death or permanent disability, and mechanical responses are crucial predictors of cranial damage. Predicting mechanical responses through medical imaging is an efficient ...

Dynamic simulation of knee joint mechanics: individualized multi-moment finite element modelling of patellar tendon stress during landing.

Journal of biomechanics
Patellar tendinopathy is prevalent in sports requiring high jumping demands, and understanding the in vivo biomechanical behavior of the patellar tendon (PT) during landing is crucial for developing effective injury prevention and rehabilitation stra...

Feasibility of human ethomic biomarkers for the diagnosis and monitoring of hip osteoarthritis.

Journal of biomechanics
Radiographic imaging is typically used to diagnose osteoarthritis (OA). However, patients would typically be sent for imaging after they present to a physician because of joint pain. By this time, the condition is likely irreversible. This study aims...

Multicontact Safety-Critical Planning and Adaptive Neural Control of a Soft Exosuit Over Different Terrains.

IEEE transactions on cybernetics
Many previous works on wearable soft exosuits have primarily focused on assisting human motion, while overlooking safety concerns during movement. This article introduces a novel single-motor, altering bi-directional transfer soft exosuit based on im...
