TESCLA (tubular electromagnetic soft conformal linear actuator) combines liquid‐metal solenoids and compliant magnetic composites to achieve large‐stroke bidirectional actuation with continuous bending. Integrated inductance‐based self‐sensing enables proprioceptive position estimation without external sensors, providing a versatile platform for soft ...

Impact of cognitive tasks on postural stability in young and older adults
Background Postural stability requires coordination of the visual, somatosensory, and vestibular systems. Cognitive tasks can divert attention from maintaining posture, potentially reducing body sway and fall risk.

Effect of Short Term Balance Training on Postural Stability in Ice Hockey Players
Postural stability is one of latent factors affecting game performance of an individual to a certain extent. The presented study deals with monitoring changes of postural stability in ice hockey players after eight week’s balance training.

Relationship Between Standing Posture and Stability [PDF]
This study determined whether persons with stability impairments have postural aberrations. We investigated whole-body posture and its relationship to center-of-gravity (COG) stability.Data from 27 subjects with vestibular hypofunction and 26 subjects without vestibular impairment were analyzed.An optoelectronic full-body system measured kinematics ...

Using Behavioral Realism to Estimate Presence: A Study of the Utility of Postural Responses to Motion Stimuli [PDF]
We recently reported that direct subjective ratings of the sense of presence are potentially unstable and can be biased by previous judgments of the same stimuli (Freeman et al., 1999).

Memristive Motion‐Streak Neuron for Spatiotemporal Multiple Object Detection
This work proposes motion‐streak neuron hardware using amorphous In–Ga–Zn–O optoelectronic memristors and dynamic memristors for spatiotemporal multiple‐object detection. The motion streak neuron array processes optical and electrical stimuli, allowing speed‐dependent filament relaxation to encode motion trajectories.

The test-retest reliability of centre of pressure measures in bipedal static task conditions - A systematic review of the literature [PDF]
Summary of background data: The analysis of centre of pressure (COP) excursions is used as an index of postural stability in standing. Conflicting data have been reported over the past 20 years regarding the reliability of COP measures and no standard ...

Bioengineered Interfaces for Peripheral Nerve Sensory Restoration
Half of amputees abandon their prosthetics for lack of feeling. This review charts the full path from peripheral nerve injury to restored sensation, through surgical, regenerative, noninvasive, and implanted approaches, and shows how injury type and interface material properties determine which strategy can deliver naturalistic feedback, and why ...
