A Novel Wrist Device for Characterizing the Components of Proprioceptive Acuity.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Proprioception is important in human motor control but can be impaired by neurological disease. Unfortunately, our understanding of proprioceptive deficit is very limited, especially for important joints such as the wrist. To address this gap, we hav...

ERegPose: An explicit regression based 6D pose estimation for snake-like wrist-type surgical instruments.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Accurately estimating the 6D pose of snake-like wrist-type surgical instruments is challenging due to their complex kinematics and flexible design.

Development of the Biomech-Wrist: A 3-DOF Exoskeleton for Rehabilitation and Training of Human Wrist.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
This work describes a three-degrees-of-freedom rehabilitation exoskeleton robot for wrist articulation movement: the Biomech-Wrist. The proposed development includes the design requirements based on the biomechanics and anthropometric features of the...

A new robot-based proprioceptive training algorithm to induce sensorimotor enhancement in the human wrist.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Afferent proprioceptive signals, responsible for body awareness, have a crucial role when planning and executing motor tasks. Increasing evidence suggests that proprioceptive sensory training may improve motor performance. Although this topic had bee...

Design Feasibility of an Energy-efficient Wrist Flexion-Extension Exoskeleton using Compliant Beams and Soft Actuators.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Passive and active exoskeletons have been used over recent decades. However, regarding many physiological systems, we see that the majority explore both active and passive elements to minimize energy consumption while retaining proper motion control....

Towards a Closed-loop Neuro-Robotic Approach to DBS Electrode Implantation based on Real-Time Wrist Rigidity Evaluation.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The iHandU system is a wearable device that quantitatively evaluates changes in wrist rigidity during Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery, allowing clinicians to find optimal stimulation settings that reduce patient symptoms. Robotic accuracy is als...

[Management of the nondisplaced type Herbert D1 scaphoid fracture with robot navigation combined with wrist arthroscopy].

Zhonghua yi xue za zhi
To investigate the feasibility and the clinical efficiency of robot navigation combined with wrist arthroscopy in minimally invasive treatment of nondisplaced type Herbert D1 scaphoid fracture. A retrospective analysis was performed on 9 patients who...

Bathroom activities monitoring for older adults by a wrist-mounted accelerometer using a hybrid deep learning model.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Monitoring activities of daily life (ADLs) allows to evaluate health conditions for older adults. However, there are still a limited number of studies on bathroom activities monitoring using a wrist-mounted accelerometer. To fill this gap, in this st...

Data Enhancement and Deep Learning for Bone Age Assessment using The Standards of Skeletal Maturity of Hand and Wrist for Chinese.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Conventional methods for artificial age determination of skeletal bones have several problems, such as strong subjectivity, large random errors, complex evaluation processes, and long evaluation cycles. In this study, an automated age determination o...

Robotic Assessments of Proprioception and the Impact of Age.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
We examined different methods of robotic proprioception assessment and provided comparison with the wrist position sense test gold standard assessment. The aim is to determine which of the assessments are the most reliable and would be acceptable for...
