Time Efficiency and Ergonomic Assessment of a Robotic Wheelchair Transfer System.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
: Caregivers experience high rates of occupational injuries, especially during wheelchair transfers, which often result in back pain and musculoskeletal disorders due to the physical demands of lifting and repositioning. While mechanical floor lifts,...

Concurrent validity and test reliability of the deep learning markerless motion capture system during the overhead squat.

Scientific reports
Marker-based optical motion capture systems have been used as a cardinal vehicle to probe and understand the underpinning mechanism of human posture and movement, but it is time-consuming for complex and delicate data acquisition and analysis, labor-...

Distinguishing among standing postures with machine learning-based classification algorithms.

Experimental brain research
The purpose of our study was to evaluate the accuracy with which classification algorithms could distinguish among standing postures based on center-of-pressure (CoP) trajectories. We performed a secondary analysis of published data from three studie...

The Use of Wearable Sensors and Machine Learning Methods to Estimate Biomechanical Characteristics During Standing Posture or Locomotion: A Systematic Review.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Balance deficits are present in a variety of clinical populations and can negatively impact quality of life. The integration of wearable sensors and machine learning technology (ML) provides unique opportunities to quantify biomechanical characterist...

Distance and Angle Insensitive Radar-Based Multi-Human Posture Recognition Using Deep Learning.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Human posture recognition has a wide range of applicability in the detective and preventive healthcare industry. Recognizing posture through frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar poses a significant challenge as the human subject is static...

Artificial intelligence driven clustering of blood pressure profiles reveals frailty in orthostatic hypertension.

Experimental physiology
Gravity, an invisible but constant force , challenges the regulation of blood pressure when transitioning between postures. As physiological reserve diminishes with age, individuals grow more susceptible to such stressors over time, risking inadequat...

Enhancing postural stability in musculoskeletal quadrupedal locomotion through tension feedback for CPG-based controller.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
A central pattern generator (CPG)-based controller enhances the adaptability of quadrupedal locomotion, for example, by controlling the trunk posture. The conventional CPG-based controllers with attitude control often utilized the posture angle as fe...

A machine learning approach for the design optimization of a multiple magnetic and inertial sensors wearable system for the spine mobility assessment.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Recently, magnetic and inertial measurement units (MIMU) based systems have been applied in the spine mobility assessment; this evaluation is essential in the clinical practice for diagnosis and treatment evaluation. The available systems...

Adaptive FPGA-Based Accelerators for Human-Robot Interaction in Indoor Environments.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
This study addresses the challenges of human-robot interactions in real-time environments with adaptive field-programmable gate array (FPGA)-based accelerators. Predicting human posture in indoor environments in confined areas is a significant challe...

MPE-HRNet: A Lightweight High-Resolution Network for Multispecies Animal Pose Estimation.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Animal pose estimation is crucial for animal health assessment, species protection, and behavior analysis. It is an inevitable and unstoppable trend to apply deep learning to animal pose estimation. In many practical application scenarios, pose estim...
