Combining FES and Exoskeletons in a Hybrid Haptic System for Enhancing VR Experience.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Robotic technology and functional electrical stimulation (FES) have emerged as highly effective rehabilitative techniques for individuals with neuromuscular diseases, showcasting their ability to restore motor functions. Within the proposed study, we...

Skeletal muscle cells opto-stimulation by intramembrane molecular transducers.

Communications biology
Optical stimulation and control of muscle cell contraction opens up a number of interesting applications in hybrid robotic and medicine. Here we show that recently designed molecular phototransducer can be used to stimulate C2C12 skeletal muscle cell...

Hybrid Robotic and Electrical Stimulation Assistance Can Enhance Performance and Reduce Mental Demand.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Combining functional electrical stimulation (FES) and robotics may enhance recovery after stroke, by providing neural feedback with the former while improving quality of motion and minimizing muscular fatigue with the latter. Here, we explored whethe...

A feasibility study on AI-controlled closed-loop electrical stimulation implants.

Scientific reports
Miniaturized electrical stimulation (ES) implants show great promise in practice, but their real-time control by means of biophysical mechanistic algorithms is not feasible due to computational complexity. Here, we study the feasibility of more compu...

Electrical Stimulation Induced Current Distribution in Peripheral Nerves Varies Significantly with the Extent of Nerve Damage: A Computational Study Utilizing Convolutional Neural Network and Realistic Nerve Models.

International journal of neural systems
Electrical stimulation of the peripheral nervous system is a promising therapeutic option for several conditions; however, its effects on tissue and the safety of the stimulation remain poorly understood. In order to devise stimulation protocols that...

Robot-assisted training with functional electrical stimulation enhances lower extremity function after spinal cord injury.

Artificial organs
INTRODUCTION: Functional electrical stimulation (FES) synchronized with robot-assisted lower extremity training is used in spinal cord injury (SCI) rehabilitation to promote residual function.

The Portiloop: A deep learning-based open science tool for closed-loop brain stimulation.

PloS one
Closed-loop brain stimulation refers to capturing neurophysiological measures such as electroencephalography (EEG), quickly identifying neural events of interest, and producing auditory, magnetic or electrical stimulation so as to interact with brain...

Soft robotics and functional electrical stimulation advances for restoring hand function in people with SCI: a narrative review, clinical guidelines and future directions.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Recovery of hand function is crucial for the independence of people with spinal cord injury (SCI). Wearable devices based on soft robotics (SR) or functional electrical stimulation (FES) have been employed to assist the recovery of hand f...

Lag Synchronization of Noisy and Nonnoisy Multiple Neurobiological Coupled FitzHugh-Nagumo Networks with and without Delayed Coupling.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
This paper presents a methodology for synchronizing noisy and nonnoisy multiple coupled neurobiological FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) drive and slave neural networks with and without delayed coupling, under external electrical stimulation (EES), external dis...

Artificial Adaptive and Maladaptive Sensory Receptors Based on a Surface-Dominated Diffusive Memristor.

Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany)
A biological receptor serves as sensory transduction from an external stimulus to an electrical signal. It allows humans to better match the environment by filtering out repetitive innocuous information and recognize potentially damaging stimuli thro...
