A novel virtual robotic platform for controlling six degrees of freedom assistive devices with body-machine interfaces.
Computers in biology and medicine
Jun 25, 2024
Body-machine interfaces (BoMIs)-systems that control assistive devices (e.g., a robotic manipulator) with a person's movements-offer a robust and non-invasive alternative to brain-machine interfaces for individuals with neurological injuries. However...
Use of Artificial Intelligence Techniques to Assist Individuals with Physical Disabilities.
Annual review of biomedical engineering
Jun 20, 2024
Assistive technologies (AT) enable people with disabilities to perform activities of daily living more independently, have greater access to community and healthcare services, and be more productive performing educational and/or employment tasks. Int...
Care Providers' Perspectives on the Design of Assistive Persuasive Behaviors for Socially Assistive Robots.
Journal of the American Medical Directors Association
Jun 13, 2024
OBJECTIVES: The main objectives of this research are (1) to uniquely design assistive behaviors for socially assistive robots using the principles of persuasion from behavioral psychology, and (2) to investigate caregivers' perspectives and opinions ...
Experiment-free exoskeleton assistance via learning in simulation.
Nature
Jun 12, 2024
Exoskeletons have enormous potential to improve human locomotive performance. However, their development and broad dissemination are limited by the requirement for lengthy human tests and handcrafted control laws. Here we show an experiment-free meth...
