Method to Develop Legs for Underwater Robots: From Multibody Dynamics with Experimental Data to Mechatronic Implementation.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Exploration of the seabed may be complex, and different parameters must be considered for a robotic system to achieve tasks in this environment, such as soil characteristics, seabed gait, and hydrodynamic force in this extreme environment. This paper...

Estimation of the Kinematics and Workspace of a Robot Using Artificial Neural Networks.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
At present, in specific and complex industrial operations, robots have to respect certain requirements and criteria as high kinematic or dynamic performance, specific dimensions of the workspace, or limitation of the dimensions of the mobile elements...

Role of the caudal peduncle in a fish-inspired robotic model: how changing stiffness and angle of attack affects swimming performance.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
In fish, the tail is a key element of propulsive anatomy that contributes to thrust during swimming. Fish possess the ability to alter tail stiffness, surface area and conformation. Specifically, the region at the base of the tail, the caudal peduncl...

G2Φnet: Relating genotype and biomechanical phenotype of tissues with deep learning.

PLoS computational biology
Many genetic mutations adversely affect the structure and function of load-bearing soft tissues, with clinical sequelae often responsible for disability or death. Parallel advances in genetics and histomechanical characterization provide significant ...

Generating an Adaptive and Robust Walking Pattern for a Prosthetic Ankle-Foot by Utilizing a Nonlinear Autoregressive Network With Exogenous Inputs.

IEEE transactions on neural networks and learning systems
One of the major challenges in developing powered lower limb prostheses is emulating the behavior of an intact lower limb with different walking speeds over diverse terrains. Numerous studies have been conducted on control algorithms in the field of ...

Digital Twin for a Multifunctional Technology of Flexible Assembly on a Mechatronics Line with Integrated Robotic Systems and Mobile Visual Sensor-Challenges towards Industry 5.0.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
A digital twin for a multifunctional technology for flexible manufacturing on an assembly, disassembly, and repair mechatronics line (A/D/RML), assisted by a complex autonomous system (CAS), is presented in the paper. The hardware architecture consis...

Intelligent Gait Analysis and Evaluation System Based on Cane Robot.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Gait analysis and evaluation are vital for disease diagnosis and rehabilitation. Current gait analysis technologies require wearable devices or high-resolution vision systems within a limited usage space. To facilitate gait analysis and quantitative ...

An Approach for Fall Prediction Based on Kinematics of Body Key Points Using LSTM.

International journal of environmental research and public health
Many studies have used sensors attached to adults in order to collect signals by which one can carry out analyses to predict falls. In addition, there are research studies in which videos and photographs were used to extract and analyze body posture ...

Design and kinematics of a tube-shaped multidirectional bending robotic device using slackened SMA wires for transurethral ureterolithotripsy.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: The complex and elaborate structure of the urinary system presents surgeons with difficulty in using a ureteroscope with a fixed optical fiber to reach the targeted calculus. To address this challenge, a robotic device is required to control...

Automatic extraction of upper-limb kinematic activity using deep learning-based markerless tracking during deep brain stimulation implantation for Parkinson's disease: A proof of concept study.

PloS one
Optimal placement of deep brain stimulation (DBS) therapy for treating movement disorders routinely relies on intraoperative motor testing for target determination. However, in current practice, motor testing relies on subjective interpretation and c...
