A Soft Robotic Device for Targeted Massage Therapy of Residual Limbs

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Residual limb edema after amputation can hinder recovery and delay prosthetic fitting. This study presents a soft‐robotic wearable device that delivers sequential compression through pneumatic McKibben actuators. By replicating the principles of manual lymphatic drainage, the device generates controlled mechanotherapeutic pressure patterns, providing a

Computer Methods for Geometrical and Colorful Transition between Facial Prosthesis and Surrounding Tissues

Journal of the Institute of Industrial Applications Engineers, 2016
This paper is to describe the method of fitting the facial prosthesis for the surrounding tissues not only in geometry but also in color. The method can be depicted as following: On the one hand, the iteration algorithm based on double umbrella operation can minimize the sum of the main curvature between the junction of the facial prosthesis and its ...

Reinnervation of Muscle Targets Enhances the Separability of Motor Unit Signals Following Peripheral Nerve Transfers

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Injured or cut peripheral nerves can be surgically rerouted to reinnervate new muscle targets. This study demonstrates reinnervated muscles exhibit enhanced separability between individual motor unit signals, which can simplify signal recording and decomposition. These findings highlight the potential of reinnervated muscle to serve as a key biological
