Characterizing forearm muscle activity in university-aged males during dynamic radial-ulnar deviation of the wrist using a wrist robot.

Journal of biomechanics
Functioning as wrist stabilizers, the wrist extensor muscles exhibit higher levels of muscle activity than the flexors in most distal upper-limb tasks. However, this finding has been derived mostly from isometric or wrist flexion-extension protocols,...

Basketball Activity Classification Based on Upper Body Kinematics and Dynamic Time Warping.

International journal of sports medicine
Basketball activity classification can help document players' statistics, allow coaches, trainers and the medical team to quantitatively supervise players' physical exertion and optimize training strategy, and further help prevent potential injuries....

A Fully Embedded Adaptive Real-Time Hand Gesture Classifier Leveraging HD-sEMG and Deep Learning.

IEEE transactions on biomedical circuits and systems
This paper presents a real-time fine gesture recognition system for multi-articulating hand prosthesis control, using an embedded convolutional neural network (CNN) to classify hand-muscle contractions sensed at the forearm. The sensor consists in a ...

Development of a Wearable Electrical Impedance Tomographic Sensor for Gesture Recognition With Machine Learning.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
A wearable electrical impedance tomographic (wEIT) sensor with 8 electrodes is developed to realize gesture recognition with machine learning algorithms. To optimize the wEIT sensor, gesture recognition rates are compared by using a series of electro...

Exploration of Chinese Sign Language Recognition Using Wearable Sensors Based on Deep Belief Net.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
In this paper, deep belief net (DBN) was applied into the field of wearable-sensor based Chinese sign language (CSL) recognition. Eight subjects were involved in the study, and all of the subjects finished a five-day experiment performing CSL on a ta...

HapPro: A Wearable Haptic Device for Proprioceptive Feedback.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Myoelectric hand prostheses have reached a considerable technological level and gained an increasing attention in assistive robotics. However, their abandonment rate remains high, with unintuitive control and lack of sensory feedback being...

A preliminary investigation into the design of pressure cushions and their potential applications for forearm robotic orthoses.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Load cells are often used in rehabilitation robotics to monitor human-robot interaction. While load cells are accurate and suitable for the stationary end-point robots used in rehabilitation hospitals, their cost and inability to conform ...

Portable and Reconfigurable Wrist Robot Improves Hand Function for Post-Stroke Subjects.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Rehabilitation robots have become increasingly popular for stroke rehabilitation. However, the high cost of robots hampers their implementation on a large scale. This paper implements the concept of a modular and reconfigurable robot, reducing its co...

Moderate, Short-Term, Local Hyperglycemia Attenuates Forearm Endothelium-Dependent Vasodilation After Transient Ischemia-Reperfusion in Human Volunteers.

Journal of cardiothoracic and vascular anesthesia
OBJECTIVE: Acute hyperglycemia causes endothelial dysfunction in diabetic patients, abolishes ischemic pre- and postconditioning, and is an independent predictor of adverse outcome after myocardial infarction in nondiabetic patients. Its effects on e...

UltrasOM: A mamba-based network for 3D freehand ultrasound reconstruction using optical flow.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND: Three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound (US) reconstruction is of significant value in clinical diagnosis, characterized by its safety, portability, low cost, and high real-time capabilities. 3D freehand ultrasound reconstruction aims to elimin...
