A support vector machine approach to detect trans-tibial prosthetic misalignment using 3-Dimensional ground reaction force features: A proof of concept.
Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
Jan 1, 2018
BACKGROUND: Prosthetists conventionally evaluate alignment based on visual interpretation of patients' gait, which is convenient, but largely subjective and depends on prosthetists' experience.
Design of a power-asymmetric actuator for a transtibial prosthesis.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jul 1, 2017
This paper presents the design and characterization of a power-asymmetric actuator for a transtibial prosthesis. The device is designed to provide the combination of: 1) joint locking, 2) high power dissipation, and 3) low power generation. This actu...
Learning from demonstration: Teaching a myoelectric prosthesis with an intact limb via reinforcement learning.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jul 1, 2017
Prosthetic arms should restore and extend the capabilities of someone with an amputation. They should move naturally and be able to perform elegant, coordinated movements that approximate those of a biological arm. Despite these objectives, the contr...
Representing high-dimensional data to intelligent prostheses and other wearable assistive robots: A first comparison of tile coding and selective Kanerva coding.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jul 1, 2017
Prosthetic devices have advanced in their capabilities and in the number and type of sensors included in their design. As the space of sensorimotor data available to a conventional or machine learning prosthetic control system increases in dimensiona...
Preliminary results toward a naturally controlled multi-synergistic prosthetic hand.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jul 1, 2017
Robotic hands embedding human motor control principles in their mechanical design are getting increasing interest thanks to their simplicity and robustness, combined with good performance. Another key aspect of these hands is that humans can use them...
Self-aligning exoskeleton hip joint: Kinematic design with five revolute, three prismatic and one ball joint.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jul 1, 2017
Kinematic compatibility is of paramount importance in wearable robotic and exoskeleton design. Misalignments between exoskeletons and anatomical joints of the human body result in interaction forces which make wearing the exoskeleton uncomfortable an...
Preliminary study of a robotic foot-ankle prosthesis with active alignment.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jul 1, 2017
Robotic prosthetic foot-ankle prostheses typically aim to replace the lost joint with revolute joints aimed at replicating normal joint biomechanics. In this paper, a previously developed robotic ankle prosthesis with active alignment is evaluated. I...
Repeatability of grasp recognition for robotic hand prosthesis control based on sEMG data.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jul 1, 2017
Control methods based on sEMG obtained promising results for hand prosthetics. Control system robustness is still often inadequate and does not allow the amputees to perform a large number of movements useful for everyday life. Only few studies analy...
Megane Pro: Myo-electricity, visual and gaze tracking data acquisitions to improve hand prosthetics.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jul 1, 2017
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...
A lightweight robotic ankle prosthesis with non-backdrivable cam-based transmission.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jul 1, 2017
Below-knee level amputation significantly impacts the ability of an individual to ambulate. Transtibial amputees are typically prescribed energetically passive ankle-foot prostheses that behave as a spring or controlled damper, and therefore cannot f...
