BACKGROUND: After a total hip arthroplasty (THA), standing and walking balance are greatly affected in the early stages of recovery, so it is important to increase the weight-bearing amount (WBA) on the operated side. Sometimes, traditional treatment...
Human-machine interfaces (HMI) refer to the physical interaction between a user and rehabilitation robots. A persisting excessive load leads to soft tissue damage, such as pressure ulcers. Therefore, it is necessary to define a comfortable binding pa...

Balanced posture without dizziness is achieved via harmonious coordination of visual, vestibular, and somatosensory systems. Specific frequency bands of center of pressure (COP) signals during quiet standing are closely related to the sensory inputs ...
This study examined the efficacy of an optimized DeepLabCut (DLC) model in motion capture, with a particular focus on the sit-to-stand (STS) movement, which is crucial for assessing the functional capacity in elderly and postoperative patients. This ...
The sit-to-stand (STS) movement is fundamental in daily activities, involving coordinated motion of the lower extremities and trunk, which leads to the generation of joint moments based on joint angles and limb properties. Traditional methods for det...

Bipedal robotic systems open up distinctive opportunities to aid individuals with reduced mobility in daily activities such as walking, rising from a seated position, and engaging in fundamental tasks that involve standing, such as bathing or getting...
The purpose of our study was to evaluate the accuracy with which classification algorithms could distinguish among standing postures based on center-of-pressure (CoP) trajectories. We performed a secondary analysis of published data from three studie...
Balance deficits are present in a variety of clinical populations and can negatively impact quality of life. The integration of wearable sensors and machine learning technology (ML) provides unique opportunities to quantify biomechanical characterist...
BACKGROUND: Electromyographic (EMG) recordings indicate that both the flexor digitorum brevis and soleus muscles contribute significantly to the control of standing balance, However, less is known about the adjustments in EMG activity of these two mu...
BACKGROUND: The integration of collaborative robots (cobots) in industrial settings has the potential to enhance worker safety and efficiency by improving postural control and reducing biomechanical risk. Understanding the specific impacts of varying...
