Using principal component analysis to reduce complex datasets produced by robotic technology in healthy participants.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: The KINARM robot produces a granular dataset of participant performance metrics associated with proprioceptive, motor, visuospatial, and executive function. This comprehensive battery includes several behavioral tasks that each generate 9...

Reliability, validity, and clinical feasibility of a rapid and objective assessment of post-stroke deficits in hand proprioception.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Proprioceptive function can be affected after neurological injuries such as stroke. Severe and persistent proprioceptive impairments may be associated with a poor functional recovery after stroke. To better understand their role in the re...

HapPro: A Wearable Haptic Device for Proprioceptive Feedback.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Myoelectric hand prostheses have reached a considerable technological level and gained an increasing attention in assistive robotics. However, their abandonment rate remains high, with unintuitive control and lack of sensory feedback being...

Development of a System Architecture for Evaluation and Training of Proprioceptive Deficits of the Upper Limb.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
Proprioception plays a fundamental role in maintaining posture and executing movement, and the quantitative evaluation of proprioceptive deficits in poststroke patients is important. But currently it is not widely performed due to the complexity of t...

Proprioceptive Flexible Fluidic Actuators Using Conductive Working Fluids.

Soft robotics
Soft robotic systems generally require both soft actuators and soft sensors to perform complex functions. Separate actuators and sensors are often combined into one composite device when proprioception (self-sensing) is required. In this article, we ...

Proprioceptive assessment in clinical settings: Evaluation of joint position sense in upper limb post-stroke using a robotic manipulator.

PloS one
Proprioception is a critical component for motor functions and directly affects motor learning after neurological injuries. Conventional methods for its assessment are generally ordinal in nature and hence lack sensitivity. Robotic devices designed t...

A composite robotic-based measure of upper limb proprioception.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Proprioception is the sense of the position and movement of our limbs, and is vital for executing coordinated movements. Proprioceptive disorders are common following stroke, but clinical tests for measuring impairments in proprioception ...

Context-dependent adaptation improves robustness of myoelectric control for upper-limb prostheses.

Journal of neural engineering
OBJECTIVE: Dexterous upper-limb prostheses are available today to restore grasping, but an effective and reliable feed-forward control is still missing. The aim of this work was to improve the robustness and reliability of myoelectric control by usin...

The Arm Movement Detection (AMD) test: a fast robotic test of proprioceptive acuity in the arm.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: We examined the validity and reliability of a short robotic test of upper limb proprioception, the Arm Movement Detection (AMD) test, which yields a ratio-scaled, objective outcome measure to be used for evaluating the impact of sensory d...

Quantification of task-dependent cortical activation evoked by robotic continuous wrist joint manipulation in chronic hemiparetic stroke.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Cortical damage after stroke can drastically impair sensory and motor function of the upper limb, affecting the execution of activities of daily living and quality of life. Motor impairment after stroke has been thoroughly studied, howeve...
