Data-Driven Grasp Synthesis - A Survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We review the work on data-driven grasp synthesis and the methodologies for sampling and ranking candidate grasps. We divide the approaches into three groups based on whether they synthesize grasps for known, familiar or unknown objects.

Superparamagnetic colloids in viscous fluids

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The influence of a magnetic field on the aggregation process of superparamagnetic colloids has been well known on short time for a few decades. However, the influence of important parameters, such as viscosity of the liquid, has received only little ...

A pilot study on the test re-test and the inter-rater reliability of the Melbourne Assessment of Unilateral Upper Limb Function

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Physiotherapy, 2009
Objective: The Melbourne Assessment of Unilateral Upper Limb Function(commonly referred to as the Melbourne A ssessment) was identified as atool to quantify the quality of upper extremity function in children with cerebral palsy aged 5 to 15 years in ...

Combined effect of moisture and electrostatic charges on powder flow

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
It is well known in industrial applications involving powders and granular materials that the relative air humidity and the presence of electrostatic charges influence drastically the material flowing properties.

Testosterone and grasp-reflex differences in human neonates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
According to the Geschwind-Behan-Galaburda (GBG) hypothesis, prenatal testosterone (T) causes a slowing in the development of the left brain with a consequent compensatory growth in the right brain, creating a reverse organisation of the cerebral ...

Therapists\u27 use of the graded repetitive arm supplementary program (GRASP) intervention: A practice implementation survey study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The aims of this study were: (1) to explore the extent of practice implementation of GRASP in the United Kingdom; (2) using an implementation framework, to explore UK therapists\u27 opinions of implementing GRASP; and (3) if GRASP is found to be used in ...

Forced segregation in binary granular mixtures [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2021
Mixing granular particles of di erent sizes is a common way of increasing the packing fraction. Recently, a model predicting the packing fraction, taking into account the inhomogeneity of the mixed small and large particles, has been proposed by S ...

Reach-To-Grasp Movements: A Multimodal Techniques Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The aim of the present study was to investigate the correlation between corticospinal activity, kinematics, and electromyography (EMG) associated with the execution of precision and whole-hand grasps (WHGs).

Improvement of hand functions of spinal cord injury patients with electromyography-driven hand exoskeleton: A feasibility study

open access: yesWearable Technologies, 2020
We have developed a one-of-a-kind hand exoskeleton, called Maestro, which can power finger movements of those surviving severe disabilities to complete daily tasks using compliant joints.

Evaluating a Kinematic Data Glove with Pressure Sensors to Automatically Differentiate Free Motion from Product Manipulation

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
When studying hand kinematics, it is key to differentiate between free motion and manipulation. This differentiation can be achieved using pressure sensors or through visual analysis in the absence of sensors.
