Effect of Data Selection on the Loss of Balance in the Seated Position
IFMBE Proceedings, 2009A fast and accurate detection of the loss of balance (LOB) can reduce the elderly fall that is one of the most dangerous injuries. Real-time detection of body reactions against a fall will be used to improve the performance of devices for the elderly. The loss of balance is detected by control error anomaly (CEA) that is an unusually large value of the

The effect of exoskeletal-assisted walking training on seated balance — A pilot study
2017 International Symposium on Wearable Robotics and Rehabilitation (WeRob), 2017Mastering exoskeletal-assisted walking (EAW) requires training of static and dynamic balance skills. These trunk control skills are important components of daily activities in the seated position for people with spinal cord injury (SCI). The purpose of the study is to determine if EAW training transfers to improved seated balance in people with SCI ...

Networked equilibrium sharing system "balance seat"
Proceedings of the 2005 ACM SIGCHI International Conference on Advances in computer entertainment technology, 2005This paper presents a networked system connecting real space, which is shared and operated by three people.We made three pneumatic triple-axis motion platforms as a system to share a "sense of balance" with other people, and examined control methods for this system.

Gait & Posture, 2010
This study investigated a representative set of 39 parameters characterizing center of pressure movements (sway) in seated balancing, with the aims to determine test-retest reliability, to clarify the interrelations between these parameters, and to determine which parameters were related to balance loss in seated balancing.

A Vibrotactile Feedback Device for Seated Balance Assessment and Training
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2019Postural perturbations, motion tracking, and sensory feedback are modern techniques used to challenge, assess, and train upright sitting, respectively. The goal of the developed protocol is to construct and operate a sitting platform that can be passively destabilized while an inertial measurement unit quantifies its motion and vibrating elements ...

Perceptual adaptation during a balancing task in the seated posture and its theoretical model
Biological Cybernetics, 2021This paper proposes a theoretical model of the control and perception mechanism in human balance. Human balance perception is evaluated by the subjective upright posture, the posture at which a person does not feel he/she is at an incline. Our balance experiments in the seated posture showed that the subjective upright posture changed after the ...

Seated balance during pitch motion with and without visual input
2013 35th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC), 2013The study of seated balance and postural control, specifically in relation to wheelchair propulsion, has been an area of interest for quite some time. In biomedical and rehabilitation research this has led to the potential of treatment and prevention of spinal cord and musculoskeletal injuries.

Effectiveness of Balance Seat on Vibration Comfort
2018People who spend a significant amount of time on driving are concerned about seating comfort. Seat cushion is considered as one of the important factors affecting the comfort of your seat. In automotive seat cushions, flexible polyurethane foam has been widely used for vibration isolation and cushioning purpose.

Predicting the Response of a Seat-Occupant Model by Using Incremental Harmonic Balance
SAE Technical Paper Series, 2013<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">Vehicle occupants are exposed to low frequency vibrations which can adversely affect the ride comfort. Exposure to vibrations can also lead to problems ranging from fatigue and lower back pain to more serious issues like injuries to the spine.
