A Multimodal Assistive-Robotic-Arm Control System to Increase Independence After Tetraplegia.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Jun 7, 2024
Following tetraplegia, independence for completing essential daily tasks, such as opening doors and eating, significantly declines. Assistive robotic manipulators (ARMs) could restore independence, but typically input devices for these manipulators r...
Barriers and facilitators to technology acceptance of socially assistive robots in older adults - A qualitative study based on the capability, opportunity, and motivation behavior model (COM-B) and stakeholder perspectives.
Geriatric nursing (New York, N.Y.)
May 29, 2024
This study aimed to identify barriers and facilitators to older adults' acceptance of socially assistive robots from a stakeholder perspective. We enlisted 36 distinct stakeholders, including older adult, nurses, retirement home managers, and employe...
Testing Dynamic Balance in People with Multiple Sclerosis: A Correlational Study between Standard Posturography and Robotic-Assistive Device.
Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
May 23, 2024
BACKGROUND: Robotic devices are known to provide pivotal parameters to assess motor functions in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) as dynamic balance. However, there is still a lack of validation studies comparing innovative technologies with standard solution...
Can Socially Assistive Robots Be Accepted by Older People Living Alone in the Community?: Empirical Findings from a Social Work Project in China.
Journal of gerontological social work
Apr 29, 2024
A pilot study was undertaken between March 2019 and September 2021, loaning socially assistive robots (SARs) for a 7-day trial to older people living alone in China. Quantitative assessments of participants' acceptance of technology and loneliness we...
Care-receivers with physical disabilities' perceptions on having humanoid assistive robots as assistants: a qualitative study.
BMC health services research
Apr 25, 2024
BACKGROUND: People with physical disabilities due to disease or injury face barriers to their daily activities and participation in society. Many depend on formal or informal caregivers for assistance to live independently. However, future healthcare...
