Accurate COP Trajectory Estimation in Healthy and Pathological Gait Using Multimodal Instrumented Insoles and Deep Learning Models.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Measuring center-of-pressure (COP) trajectories in out-of-the-lab environments may provide valuable information about changes in gait and balance function related to natural disease progression or treatment in neurological disorders. Traditional equi...

Human-in-the-Loop Adaptive Control of a Soft Exo-Suit With Actuator Dynamics and Ankle Impedance Adaptation.

IEEE transactions on cybernetics
Soft exo-suit could facilitate walking assistance activities (such as level walking, upslope, and downslope) for unimpaired individuals. In this article, a novel human-in-the-loop adaptive control scheme is presented for a soft exo-suit, which provid...

A Wearable Co-Located Neural-Mechanical Signal Sensing Device for Simultaneous Bimodal Muscular Activity Detection.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
The co-located and concurrent measurement of both muscular neural activity and muscular deformation is considered necessary in many applications, such as medical robotics, assistive exoskeletons and muscle function evaluations. Nevertheless, conventi...

Improving the acceptability of social robots: Make them look different from humans.

PloS one
The social robots market will grow considerably in the coming years. What the arrival of these new kind of social agents means for society, however, is largely unknown. Existing cases of robot abuse point to risks of introducing such artificial socia...

Effects of overground gait training assisted by a wearable exoskeleton in patients with Parkinson's disease.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: In the recent past, wearable devices have been used for gait rehabilitation in patients with Parkinson's disease. The objective of this paper is to analyze the outcome of a wearable hip orthosis whose assistance adapts in real time to the...

Acute effects of robot-assisted body weight unloading on biomechanical movement patterns during overground walking.

Journal of biomechanics
Body weight unloading (BWU) is used in rehabilitation/training settings to reduce kinetic requirements, however different BWU methods may be unequally capable of preserving biomechanical movement patterns. Biomechanical analysis of both kinetic and k...

Control of movement of underwater swimmers: Animals, simulated animates and swimming robots.

Physics of life reviews
The control of movement in living organisms represents a fundamental task that the brain has evolved to solve. One crucial aspect is how the nervous system organizes the transformation of sensory information into motor commands. These commands lead t...

Effects of high-intensity gait training with and without soft robotic exosuits in people post-stroke: a development-of-concept pilot crossover trial.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
INTRODUCTION: High-intensity gait training is widely recognized as an effective rehabilitation approach after stroke. Soft robotic exosuits that enhance post-stroke gait mechanics have the potential to improve the rehabilitative outcomes achieved by ...

Comparative Analysis of Audio Processing Techniques on Doppler Radar Signature of Human Walking Motion Using CNN Models.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Artificial intelligence (AI) radar technology offers several advantages over other technologies, including low cost, privacy assurance, high accuracy, and environmental resilience. One challenge faced by AI radar technology is the high cost of equipm...

A Systematic Review of Gait Analysis in the Context of Multimodal Sensing Fusion and AI.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
BACKGROUND: Neurological diseases are a leading cause of disability and mortality. Gait, or human walking, is a significant predictor of quality of life, morbidity, and mortality. Gait patterns and other kinematic, kinetic, and balance gait features ...
