Normal aging often results in an increase in physiological tremors and slowing of the movement of the hands, which can impair daily activities and quality of life. This study, using lightweight wearable non-invasive sensors, aimed to detect and ident...
BACKGROUND: In the pursuit of finer Brain-Computer Interface commands, research focus has shifted towards classifying EEG signals for multiple tasks. While single-joint multitasking motor imagery provides support, distinguishing between EEG signals f...
Developing an electroencephalography (EEG)-based brain-computer interface (BCI) system is crucial to enhancing the control of external prostheses by accurately distinguishing various movements through brain signals. This innovation can provide comfor...
BACKGROUND: Accelerometers are widely adopted in research and consumer devices as a tool to measure physical activity. However, existing algorithms used to estimate activity intensity are wear-site-specific. Non-compliance to wear instructions may le...

Though the forearm is the focus of the prostheses, myoelectric control with the electrodes on the wrist is more comfortable for general consumers because of its unobtrusiveness and incorporation with the existing wrist-based wearables. Recently, deep...
OBJECTIVE: Dyad motor practice is characterized by two learners alternating between physical and observational practice, which can lead to better motor outcomes and reduce practice time compared to physical practice alone. Robot-assisted therapy has ...
Rehabilitation is a major requirement to improve the quality of life and mobility of patients with disabilities. The use of rehabilitative devices without continuous supervision of medical experts is increasing manifold, mainly due to prolonged thera...
OBJECTIVE: Scaphoid nonunion advanced collapse (SNAC) is a relatively common and debilitating wrist disorder yet its treatment remains challenging and controversial. We aim to describe a novel technique of a dual arthroscopic and robotic assisted fou...
