Cerebral palsy is a neurologic disorder caused by lesions on an immature brain, often resulting in spasticity and gait abnormality. This study aimed to compare the muscle activation patterns of real level and stair walking with those of simulated wal...
In a society centered on hyper-connectivity, information sharing is crucial, but it must be ensured that each piece of information is viewed only by legitimate users; for this purpose, the medium that connects information and users must be able to id...
Distinguishing pathological gait is challenging in neurology because of the difficulty of capturing total body movement and its analysis. We aimed to obtain a convenient recording with an iPhone and establish an algorithm based on deep learning. From...
Navigating between the different floors of a multistory building is a task that requires walking up or down stairs or taking an elevator or lift. This work proposes a procedure to take a remotely controlled elevator with an autonomous mobile robot ba...
For a robot to be both autonomous and collaborative requires the ability to adapt its movement to a variety of external stimuli, whether these come from humans or other robots. Typically, legged robots have oscillation periods explicitly defined as a...
Human activity recognition (HAR) is essential for the development of robots to assist humans in daily activities. HAR is required to be accurate, fast and suitable for low-cost wearable devices to ensure portable and safe assistance. Current computat...
The aim of this study was to design a new canine posture estimation system specifically for working dogs. The system was composed of Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) that are commercially available, and a supervised learning algorithm which was deve...
