Design computed torque control for Stewart platform with uncertainty to the rehabilitation of patients with leg disabilities.

Computer methods in biomechanics and biomedical engineering
Physiotherapy is a treatment that may be required permanently by many patients. As a result, a robot that can execute physiotherapy exercises for the legs like a professional therapist with adequate performance and acceptable safety may be efficient ...

Low Cost Magnetic Field Control for Disabled People.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Our research presents a cost-effective navigation system for electric wheelchairs that utilizes the tongue as a human-machine interface (HMI) for disabled individuals. The user controls the movement of the wheelchair by wearing a small neodymium magn...

Telepresence Robot System for People with Speech or Mobility Disabilities.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Due to an increase in the number of disabled people around the world, inclusive solutions are becoming a priority. People with disabilities may encounter many problems and may not be able to easily participate in various activities due to physical ba...

Learning-based control approaches for service robots on cloth manipulation and dressing assistance: a comprehensive review.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Service robots are defined as reprogrammable, sensor-based mechatronic devices that perform useful services in an autonomous or semi-autonomous way to human activities in an everyday environment. As the number of elderly people grows, ser...

LidSonic V2.0: A LiDAR and Deep-Learning-Based Green Assistive Edge Device to Enhance Mobility for the Visually Impaired.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Over a billion people around the world are disabled, among whom 253 million are visually impaired or blind, and this number is greatly increasing due to ageing, chronic diseases, and poor environments and health. Despite many proposals, the current d...
