Replicating dynamic humerus motion using an industrial robot.

PloS one
Transhumeral percutaneous osseointegrated prostheses provide upper-extremity amputees with increased range of motion, more natural movement patterns, and enhanced proprioception. However, direct skeletal attachment of the endoprosthesis elevates the ...

Customised Selection of the Haptic Design in C-Loop Intraocular Lenses Based on Deep Learning.

Annals of biomedical engineering
In order to increase the probability of having a successful cataract post-surgery, the customisation of the haptic design of the intraocular lens (IOL) according to the characteristics of the patient is recommended. In this study, we present two pred...

Exploring augmented grasping capabilities in a multi-synergistic soft bionic hand.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: State-of-the-art bionic hands incorporate hi-tech devices which try to overcome limitations of conventional single grip systems. Unfortunately, their complexity often limits mechanical robustness and intuitive prosthesis control. Recently...

Computer Vision-Based Grasp Pattern Recognition With Application to Myoelectric Control of Dexterous Hand Prosthesis.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Artificial intelligence provides new feasibilities to the control of dexterous prostheses. To achieve suitable grasps over various objects, a novel computer vision-based classification method assorting objects into different grasp patterns is propose...

Soft robotic in the construction of prosthetic heart valve: a novel approach.

Journal of medical engineering & technology
In this study, we describe the design, fabrication and computational testing of a new prosthetic device for aortic valve replacement. The device is an active stent composed of a silicone rubber during initial prototyping, with adaptation towards a hy...

Detecting total hip replacement prosthesis design on plain radiographs using deep convolutional neural network.

Journal of orthopaedic research : official publication of the Orthopaedic Research Society
Identifying the design of a failed implant is a key step in the preoperative planning of revision total joint arthroplasty. Manual identification of the implant design from radiographic images is time-consuming and prone to error. Failure to identify...

The Interaction Between Feedback Type and Learning in Routine Grasping With Myoelectric Prostheses.

IEEE transactions on haptics
While prosthetic fitting after upper-limb loss allows for restoration of motor functions, it deprives the amputee of tactile sensations that are essential for grasp control in able-bodied subjects. Therefore, it is commonly assumed that restoring the...

A Deep Learning Framework for Design and Analysis of Surgical Bioprosthetic Heart Valves.

Scientific reports
Bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) are commonly used as heart valve replacements but they are prone to fatigue failure; estimating their remaining life directly from medical images is difficult. Analyzing the valve performance can provide better guida...

Design and Speed-Adaptive Control of a Powered Geared Five-Bar Prosthetic Knee Using BP Neural Network Gait Recognition.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
To improve the multi-speed adaptability of the powered prosthetic knee, this paper presented a speed-adaptive neural network control based on a powered geared five-bar (GFB) prosthetic knee. The GFB prosthetic knee is actuated via a cylindrical cam-b...
