Evaluating Robot Posture Control and Balance by Comparison to Human Subjects using Human Likeness Measures [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Posture control and balance are basic requirements for a humanoid robot performing motor tasks like walking and interacting with the environment. For this reason, posture control is one of the elements taken into account when evaluating the performance of humanoids.

Neural Bases of Postural Control [PDF]
Physiology, 2006 The body posture during standing and walking is maintained due to the activity of a closed-loop control system. In the review, we consider different aspects of postural control: its functional organization, the distribution of postural functions in different parts of the central nervous system, and the activity of neuronal networks controlling posture.

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective The increasing burden associated with low back pain (LBP) is a critical issue. This is a novel analysis of trends in risk factors for LBP aiming to identify risk factors that require further attention or consideration in global policies to reduce the burden of LBP.

Anticipatory postural control during arm movements and floor translation
Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2013 Many researchers have analyzed dynamic postural control during voluntary arm movements and floor translation, focusing on the anticipatory activation of postural muscles in which the function of frontal lobe is involved.

Towards life-long learning of posture control for s-EMG prostheses [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Surface electromyography (s-EMG) sensors are a promising way to control upper-limb prostheses. However a training session is necessary in order to set up the controller that will make s-EMG based movement possible. All data recorded during the training session are used by a machine learning algorithm to make a posture classification, that will allow ...

Kinematic body responses and perceived discomfort in a bumpy ride: Effects of sitting posture [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 The present study investigates perceived comfort and whole-body vibration transmissibility in intensive repetitive pitch exposure representing a bumpy ride. Three sitting strategies (preferred, erect, and slouched) were evaluated for perceived body discomfort and body kinematic responses. Nine male and twelve female participants were seated in a moving-

An EEG-based Experiment on VR Sickness and Postural Instability While Walking in Virtual Environments [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Previous studies showed that natural walking reduces the susceptibility to VR sickness. However, many users still experience VR sickness when wearing VR headsets that allow free walking in room-scale spaces. This paper studies VR sickness and postural instability while the user walks in an immersive virtual environment using an electroencephalogram ...
