Development of a Novel Task-oriented Rehabilitation Program using a Bimanual Exoskeleton Robotic Hand.

Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE
A robot-assisted hand is used for the rehabilitation of patients with impaired upper limb function, particularly for stroke patients with a loss of motor control. However, it is unclear how conventional occupational training strategies can be applied...

Real-Time Human Action Recognition with a Low-Cost RGB Camera and Mobile Robot Platform.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Human action recognition is an important research area in the field of computer vision that can be applied in surveillance, assisted living, and robotic systems interacting with people. Although various approaches have been widely used, recent studie...

Motion artifacts reduction in brain MRI by means of a deep residual network with densely connected multi-resolution blocks (DRN-DCMB).

Magnetic resonance imaging
OBJECTIVE: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) acquisition is inherently sensitive to motion, and motion artifact reduction is essential for improving image quality in MRI.

Real-Time Energy Efficient Hand Pose Estimation: A Case Study.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The estimation of human hand pose has become the basis for many vital applications where the user depends mainly on the hand pose as a system input. Virtual reality (VR) headset, shadow dexterous hand and in-air signature verification are a few examp...

Motor improvement estimation and task adaptation for personalized robot-aided therapy: a feasibility study.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: In the past years, robotic systems have become increasingly popular in upper limb rehabilitation. Nevertheless, clinical studies have so far not been able to confirm superior efficacy of robotic therapy over conventional methods. The pers...

A practical 3D-printed soft robotic prosthetic hand with multi-articulating capabilities.

PloS one
Soft robotic hands with monolithic structure have shown great potential to be used as prostheses due to their advantages to yield light weight and compact designs as well as its ease of manufacture. However, existing soft prosthetic hands design were...

Exploiting upper-limb functional principal components for human-like motion generation of anthropomorphic robots.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Human-likeliness of robot movements is a key component to enable a safe and effective human-robot interaction, since it contributes to increase acceptance and motion predictability of robots that have to closely interact with people, e.g....

Parkinson's Disease EMG Data Augmentation and Simulation with DCGANs and Style Transfer.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
This paper proposes two new data augmentation approaches based on Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Networks (DCGANs) and Style Transfer for augmenting Parkinson's Disease (PD) electromyography (EMG) signals. The experimental results indicate...

A multi-scale variational neural network for accelerating motion-compensated whole-heart 3D coronary MR angiography.

Magnetic resonance imaging
PURPOSE: To enable fast reconstruction of undersampled motion-compensated whole-heart 3D coronary magnetic resonance angiography (CMRA) by learning a multi-scale variational neural network (MS-VNN) which allows the acquisition of high-quality 1.2 × 1...

Fully Automated Leg Tracking in Freely Moving Insects using Feature Learning Leg Segmentation and Tracking (FLLIT).

Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE
The Drosophila model has been invaluable for the study of neurological function and for understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms that underlie neurodegeneration. While fly techniques for the manipulation and study of neuronal subsets have ...
