In microsurgical procedures, surgeons use micro-instruments under high magnifications to handle delicate tissues. These procedures require highly skilled attentional and motor control for planning and implementing eye-hand coordination strategies. Ey...
This article presents a construction prototype of a delta 4-DoF (Degree of Freedom) parallel robot. The structure of kinematic chain was described and the problem of inverse kinematic was formulated and solved. The author also proposed a concept of a...
Fish show a wide diversity of body shapes which affect many aspects of their biology, including swimming and feeding performance, and defense from predators. Deep laterally compressed bodies are particularly common, and have evolved multiple times in...
Abnormal spasticity and associated synergistic patterns are the most common neuromuscular impairments affecting ankle-knee-hip interlimb coordinated gait kinematics and kinetics in patients with hemiparetic stroke. Although patients with hemiparetic ...
The aim of the present study was to predict the kinematics of the knee and the ankle joints during a squat training task of different intensities. Lower limb surface electromyographic (sEMG) signals and the 3-D kinematics of lower extremity joints we...

This article proposes a locomotion controller inspired by black Knifefish for undulating elongated fin robot. The proposed controller is built by a modified CPG network using sixteen coupled Hopf oscillators with the feedback of the angle of each fin...
Nowadays, the use of wearable inertial-based systems together with machine learning methods opens new pathways to assess athletes' performance. In this paper, we developed a neural network-based approach for the estimation of the Ground Reaction Forc...
This review article aims to address common research questions in hexapod robotics. How can we build intelligent autonomous hexapod robots that can exploit their biomechanics, morphology, and computational systems, to achieve autonomy, adaptability, a...
Most existing wall-climbing robots have a fixed range of load capacity and a step distance that is small and mostly immutable. It is therefore difficult for them to adapt to a discontinuous wall with particularly large gaps. Based on a modular design...
The invention of soft wearable assistive devices, known as exosuits, introduced a new aspect in assisting unimpaired subjects. In this study, we designed and developed an exosuit with compliant biarticular thigh actuators called BATEX. Unlike the con...
