Despite upper extremity function playing a crucial role in maintaining one's independence in activities of daily living, upper extremity impairments remain one of the most prevalent post-stroke deficits. To enhance the upper extremity motor recovery ...
For robots equipped with an advanced computer vision-based system, object recognition has stringent real-time requirements. When the environment becomes complicated and keeps changing, existing works (e.g., template-matching strategy and machine-lear...
While assistive robots receive growing attention as a potential solution to support older adults to live independently, several scholars question the underlying social, ethical and health policy assumptions. One perplexing issue is determining whethe...
BACKGROUND: Though many rehabilitative treatments are available for treatment of spasticity, thus the effectiveness of different robo-rehabilitative devices needs to be evaluated through a systematic review.
In this article, we report on a systematic review of the literature on pressure-pain thresholds induced and assessed by computerized cuff pressure algometry (CPA). The motivation for this review is to provide design guidance on pressure levels for we...
This article presents the design, fabrication, and characterization of a soft biomimetic robotic fish based on dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) that swims by body and/or caudal fin (BCF) propulsion. BCF is a promising locomotion mechanism that p...
This work develops a speech recognition system that uses two procedures of proposed noise detection and combined noise reduction. The system can be used in applications that require interactive robots to recognize the contents of speech that includes...
