Monitoring Arm Movements Post-Stroke for Applications in Rehabilitation and Home Settings
IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2022 Optimal recovery of arm function following stroke requires patients to perform a large number of functional arm movements in clinical therapy sessions, as well as at home.

Evolution of prehension ability in an anthropomorphic neurorobotic arm
Frontiers in Neurorobotics, 2007 In this paper, we show how a simulated anthropomorphic robotic arm controlled by an artificial neural network can develop effective reaching and grasping behaviour through a trial and error process in which the free parameters encode the control rules ...

Impairments of the arm and hand are highly correlated during subacute stroke
Journal of Rehabilitation Medicine, 2023 Background: The classical description of poststroke upper limb impairment follows a proximalto-distal impairment gradient. Previous studies are equivocal on whether the hand is more impaired than the arm.

Bionics Solution to Learn the Arm Reaching with Collision Avoidance
Applied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2005 This article presents a learning model that simulates the control of an anthropomorphic arm kinematics motion. The objective is to reach and grasp a static prototypic object placed behind different kinds of obstacle in size and position.

Measuring Habitual Arm Use Post-stroke With a Bilateral Time-Constrained Reaching Task
Frontiers in Neurology, 2018 Background: Spontaneous use of the more-affected arm is a meaningful indicator of stroke recovery. The Bilateral Arm Reaching Test (BART) was previously developed to quantify arm use by measuring arm choice to targets projected over a horizontal hemi ...

On Control of Reaching Movements for Musculo-Skeletal Redundant Arm Model
Applied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2009 This paper focuses on a dynamic sensory-motor control mechanism of reaching movements for a musculo-skeletal redundant arm model. The formulation of a musculo-skeletal redundant arm system, which takes into account non-linear muscle properties obtained ...

Brain-Machine Interface to Control a Prosthetic Arm with Monkey ECoGs during Periodic Movements
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2014 Brain Machine Interfaces (BMIs) are promising technologies to rehabilitate the function of upper limbs in severely paralyzed patients. We succeeded in developing a BMI prosthetic arm for a monkey implanted with electrocorticogram (ECoG) electrodes and ...
