Hydrodynamic pressure sensing for a biomimetic robotic fish caudal fin integrated with a resistive pressure sensor.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Micro-sensors, such as pressure and flow sensors, are usually adopted to attain actual fluid information around swimming biomimetic robotic fish for hydrodynamic analysis and control. However, most of the reported micro-sensors are mounted discretely...

A preliminary investigation into the design of pressure cushions and their potential applications for forearm robotic orthoses.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Load cells are often used in rehabilitation robotics to monitor human-robot interaction. While load cells are accurate and suitable for the stationary end-point robots used in rehabilitation hospitals, their cost and inability to conform ...

Application of Machine Learning Approaches for Classifying Sitting Posture Based on Force and Acceleration Sensors.

BioMed research international
Occupational musculoskeletal disorders, particularly chronic low back pain (LBP), are ubiquitous due to prolonged static sitting or nonergonomic sitting positions. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop an instrumented chair with force and a...

Tactile soft-sparse mean fluid-flow imaging with a robotic whisker array.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
An array of whiskers is critical to many mammals to survive in their environment. However, current engineered systems generally employ vision, radar or sonar to explore the surroundings, not having sufficiently benefited from tactile perception. Insp...

Tactile surface classification for limbed robots using a pressure sensitive robot skin.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
This paper describes an approach to terrain identification based on pressure images generated through direct surface contact using a robot skin constructed around a high-resolution pressure sensing array. Terrain signatures for classification are for...

Pavement type and wear condition classification from tire cavity acoustic measurements with artificial neural networks.

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America
Tire road noise is the major contributor to traffic noise, which leads to general annoyance, speech interference, and sleep disturbances. Standardized methods to measure tire road noise are expensive, sophisticated to use, and they cannot be applied ...
