Integrated linkage-driven dexterous anthropomorphic robotic hand.

Nature communications
Robotic hands perform several amazing functions similar to the human hands, thereby offering high flexibility in terms of the tasks performed. However, developing integrated hands without additional actuation parts while maintaining important functio...

Design and Experimental Characterization of L-CADEL v2, an Assistive Device for Elbow Motion.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
An experimental characterization is presented for an improved version of a wearable assistive device for elbow motion. The design is revised with respect to requirements for elbow motion assistance, looking at applications both in rehabilitation ther...

Equal bony resection of distal and posterior femur will lead to flexion/extension gap inequality in robot-assisted cruciate-retaining TKA.

Knee surgery, sports traumatology, arthroscopy : official journal of the ESSKA
PURPOSE: Joint imbalance has become one of the main reasons for early revision after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and it is directly related to the surgical technique. Therefore, a better understanding of how much bone has to be removed to obtain a ...

Customizing Robot-Assisted Passive Neurorehabilitation Exercise Based on Teaching Training Mechanism.

BioMed research international
Passive movement is an important mean of rehabilitation for stroke survivors in the early stage or with greater paralysis. The upper extremity robot is required to assist therapists with passive movement during clinical rehabilitation, while customiz...

Low cost exoskeleton manipulator using bidirectional triboelectric sensors enhanced multiple degree of freedom sensory system.

Nature communications
Rapid developments of robotics and virtual reality technology are raising the requirements of more advanced human-machine interfaces for achieving efficient parallel control. Exoskeleton as an assistive wearable device, usually requires a huge cost a...

Automated Segmentation of the Median Nerve in the Carpal Tunnel using U-Net.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
Nerve area and motion in carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) are currently under investigation in terms of prognostic potential. Therefore, there is increasing interest in non-invasive measurement of the nerve using ultrasound. Manual segmentation is time c...

Machine learning analysis to predict the need for ankle foot orthosis in patients with stroke.

Scientific reports
We investigated the potential of machine learning techniques, at an early stage after stroke, to predict the need for ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) in stroke patients. We retrospectively recruited 474 consecutive stroke patients. The need for AFO during ...

Development and feasibility of a soft pneumatic-robotic glove to assist impaired hand function in quadriplegia patients: A pilot study.

Journal of bodywork and movement therapies
One of the common disorders in people with quadriplegia is having a weak grip strength that can affect activities of daily living (ADL). This study presents the design of a soft robotic glove via pneumatic actuators and feasibility according to a ran...

Application of machine learning to the identification of joint degrees of freedom involved in abnormal movement during upper limb prosthesis use.

PloS one
To evaluate movement quality of upper limb (UL) prosthesis users, performance-based outcome measures have been developed that examine the normalcy of movement as compared to a person with a sound, intact hand. However, the broad definition of "normal...
