Automated Error Detection in Physiotherapy Training.

Studies in health technology and informatics
BACKGROUND: Manual skills teaching, such as physiotherapy education, requires immediate teacher feedback for the students during the learning process, which to date can only be performed by expert trainers.

Robotic gaming prototype for upper limb exercise: Effects of age and embodiment on user preferences and movement.

Restorative neurology and neuroscience
BACKGROUND: Effective human-robot interactions in rehabilitation necessitates an understanding of how these should be tailored to the needs of the human. We report on a robotic system developed as a partner on a 3-D everyday task, using a gamified ap...

Smooth leader or sharp follower? Playing the mirror game with a robot.

Restorative neurology and neuroscience
BACKGROUND: The increasing number of opportunities for human-robot interactions in various settings, from industry through home use to rehabilitation, creates a need to understand how to best personalize human-robot interactions to fit both the user ...

Robot-Assisted Training of Arm and Hand Movement Shows Functional Improvements for Incomplete Cervical Spinal Cord Injury.

American journal of physical medicine & rehabilitation
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to demonstrate the feasibility, tolerability, and effectiveness of robotic-assisted arm training in incomplete chronic tetraplegia.

Reducing Circumduction and Hip Hiking During Hemiparetic Walking Through Targeted Assistance of the Paretic Limb Using a Soft Robotic Exosuit.

American journal of physical medicine & rehabilitation
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects on common poststroke gait compensations of a soft wearable robot (exosuit) designed to assist the paretic limb during hemiparetic walking.

Robotic Assistance for Training Finger Movement Using a Hebbian Model: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Neurorehabilitation and neural repair
BACKGROUND: Robots that physically assist movement are increasingly used in rehabilitation therapy after stroke, yet some studies suggest robotic assistance discourages effort and reduces motor learning.

Estimating anatomical wrist joint motion with a robotic exoskeleton.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Robotic exoskeletons can provide the high intensity, long duration targeted therapeutic interventions required for regaining motor function lost as a result of neurological injury. Quantitative measurements by exoskeletons have been proposed as measu...

Simultaneous estimation of human and exoskeleton motion: A simplified protocol.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Adequate benchmarking procedures in the area of wearable robots is gaining importance in order to compare different devices on a quantitative basis, improve them and support the standardization and regulation procedures. Performance assessment usuall...

Megane Pro: Myo-electricity, visual and gaze tracking data acquisitions to improve hand prosthetics.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
During the past 60 years scientific research proposed many techniques to control robotic hand prostheses with surface electromyography (sEMG). Few of them have been implemented in commercial systems also due to limited robustness that may be improved...
