IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Stroke is one of the leading causes of impairment in the world. Many of those who have suffered a stroke experience long-term loss of upper-limb function as a result. BLUE SABINO is an exoskeleton device being developed at the University of Idaho to ...

Mimicking Martian dust: An in-vacuum dust deposition system for testing the ultraviolet sensors on the Curiosity rover.

The Review of scientific instruments
We have designed and developed an in-vacuum dust deposition system specifically conceived to simulate and study the effect of accumulation of Martian dust on the electronic instruments of scientific planetary exploration missions. We have used this d...

A case of G-LOC in a propeller aircraft.

Aviation, space, and environmental medicine
The occurrence of +Gz-induced loss of consciousness (G-LOC) is well recognized in high-performance aircraft. A case of G-LOC is described involving a co-pilot on a flying instructor's course in a propeller-driven aircraft, the CT-4. The cause of G-LO...
