The Effects of Gender, and Functional and Cognitive Training on Postural Control in Middle-Aged People

open access: yesمجله پژوهش در علوم توانبخشی, 2018
Introduction: Postural control changes with ageing, and it is essential to study aging-related mechanisms. The aim of this research was to investigate the effects of gender, and functional and cognitive training on balance control in middle-aged people.

A Low‐Cost Curvature Detection Method for an Untethered Biped Pipeline Climbing Robot with Energy‐Efficient Strategy

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A low‐cost pipeline curvature detection method has been proposed for an untethered biped pipeline surface climbing robot (BPCR) system with a five‐degree‐of freedom structure. The BPCR features adaptive vacuum suction cups equipped with multiple laser sensors on the suction modules to detect the curvature of various surfaces.

Correlation between body weight and postural control in healthy individuals using sway meter

open access: yesОжирение и метаболизм, 2019
BACKGROUND: Postural control is critical for ensuring a safety activity of daily living. Individuals with poor stability are more prone to fall while doing activities of daily living.

Inferred Influence of Human Lateral Profile on Limb Load Asymmetry during a Quiet Standing Balance Test [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Although the identification and characterisation of a participant's lateral profile during quiet standing have not received much research attention, they have the potential to greatly extend our understanding of upright stance stability control.

Bioelectronic Sensors for Neuromuscular Perception in Human‐Machine Interfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review summarizes recent advances in bioelectronic sensors for neuromuscular perception in human‐machine interfaces. By integrating biopotential, electrical impedance, and electrochemical sensing strategies with flexible electrode interfaces, these bioelectronic sensing systems enable intuitive, real‐time detection of muscle and nerve activity ...

Relationship between foot sensibility and postural control in the young and elderly. http://dx.doi.org/10.5007/1980-0037.2013v15n1p215

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Cineantropometria e Desempenho Humano, 2013
Impairments in the foot sensitivity in the elderly cause changes in locomotion and postural control that may increase fall risk. Understanding the use of foot afference in the elderly may help preventing loss of mobility and fall.

Effects of visually simulated roll motion on vection and postural stabilization

open access: yesJournal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2007
Background Visual motion often provokes vection (the induced perception of self-motion) and postural movement. Postural movement is known to increase during vection, suggesting the same visual motion signal underlies vection and postural control. However,

Investigation into the impact of cognitive load in children with and without identified postural control difficulties. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This study investigates the effect of cognitive load on children with and without identified postural control difficulties. In addition the study investigates whether this difference, if any, is different between these two groups of participants.

Unilateral Ankle‐Foot Exoneuromusculoskeleton with Balance‐Sensing Feedback for Self‐Help Telerehabilitation after Stroke

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study introduces a hybrid robot that integrates mechanical assistance by musculoskeletons (i.e., soft pneumatic muscle with rigid exoskeletal extensions), neuromuscular electrical stimulation, and vibrotactile feedback in a lightweight wearable mechatronic complex applicable to the paretic ankle–foot poststroke for gait restoration. The system can
