Virtual Steps: The Experience of Walking for a Lifelong Wheelchair User in Virtual Reality [PDF]
In 2024 IEEE Conference Virtual Reality and 3D User Interfaces
(VR) (pp. 168-178). IEEEMany people often take walking for granted, but for individuals with mobility disabilities, this seemingly simple act can feel out of reach. This reality can foster a sense of disconnect from the world since walking is a fundamental way in which people interact with each other and the environment.

Upper Limb Movement Execution Classification using Electroencephalography for Brain Computer Interface [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 An accurate classification of upper limb movements using electroencephalography (EEG) signals is gaining significant importance in recent years due to the prevalence of brain-computer interfaces. The upper limbs in the human body are crucial since different skeletal segments combine to make a range of motion that helps us in our trivial daily tasks ...

Control of the Extension-Flexion Cycle of Human Knees During Bicycle Riding by a Synergy of Solitary Muscular Excitations and Contractions [PDF]
Nonlinear Dynamics, (2016), 1-11, 2016 A Hill-type model is proposed for the extension-flexion cycle of human knees during bicycle riding. The extension-flexion cycle is controlled by a synergy of muscular excitations and contractions of the knee musculature. Muscular action potentials are modeled by Sine-Gordon kinks, while titin-influenced actomyosin contractionsare modeled by Korteweg-de
