Robot Assisted Instantaneous Heart Rate Estimator using Camera based Remote Photoplethysmograpy via Plane-Orthogonal-to-Skin and Finite State Machine.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
In this paper, we have presented Turtulebot-assisted instantaneous heart rate (HR) estimator using camera based remote photoplethysmography. We used a Turtlebot with a camera to record human face. For the face detection, we used Haar Cascade algorith...

Investigating muscle synergies changes after rehabilitation robotics training on stroke survivors: a pilot study.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The current knowledge about muscle synergies does not clearly explain how both rehabilitation and brain plasticity act on the way they evolve after a cortical stroke. In this preliminary study, the authors analyzed the correlation between healthy and...

Differentiating Motor Coordination and Position Sense in Children with Cerebral Palsy and Typically Developing Populations Through Robotic Assessments.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Motor function and coordination improve as children age. Robotic assessments of motor function and coordination have been shown to be repeatable, objective, and accurate. Additionally, robotic assessments have been used to measure and quantify defici...

A Paediatric 3D-Printed Soft Robotic Hand Prosthesis for Children with Upper Limb Loss.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Designing prosthetic hands for children is challenging due to the limited space for electronics and the need of reducing the cost to cater for the constant growth of their hand. In this paper, we proposed an anthropomorphic hand prosthesis for childr...

Dexterous Force Estimation during Finger Flexion and Extension Using Motor Unit Discharge Information.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
With the development of advanced robotic hands, a reliable neural-machine interface is essential to take full advantage of the functional dexterity of the robots. In this preliminary study, we developed a novel method to estimate isometric forces of ...

Four-Way Classification of EEG Responses To Virtual Robot Navigation.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Studies have shown the possibility of using brain signals that are automatically generated while observing a navigation task as feedback for semi-autonomous control of a robot. This allows the robot to learn quasi-optimal routes to intended targets. ...

Patient-Specific Robot-Assisted Stroke Rehabilitation Guided by EEG - A Feasibility Study.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Multi-session robot-assisted stroke rehabilitation program requires patients to perform repetitive tasks. It is challenging for the patient to maintain concentration during training sessions. A novel intervention strategy using Electroencephalography...

A novel approach for remote detection of bacteria using simple charge-coupled device cameras and telescope.

The Review of scientific instruments
We have designed, constructed, and utilized a charge-coupled device system, integrated with a small Newtonian telescope, capable of long distance recording of bacterial fluorescence and synchronous spectra for the detection of bacteria, their compone...

Role of 5G-powered remote robotic ultrasound during the COVID-19 outbreak: insights from two cases.

European review for medical and pharmacological sciences
The 2019 Novel Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) broke out in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and spread throughout the world. Early screening and early diagnosis play key roles in prevention and management of the epidemic. Attention should also be paid t...
