Closed-loop neuromuscular electrical stimulation using feedforward-feedback control and textile electrodes to regulate grasp force in quadriplegia

Bioelectronic Medicine, 2019
Background Transcutaneous neuromuscular electrical stimulation is routinely used in physical rehabilitation and more recently in brain-computer interface applications for restoring movement in paralyzed limbs. Due to variable muscle responses to repeated

Owning an overweight or underweight body: distinguishing the physical, experienced and virtual body [PDF]

, 2014
Our bodies are the most intimately familiar objects we encounter in our perceptual environment. Virtual reality provides a unique method to allow us to experience having a very different body from our own, thereby providing a valuable method to explore ...

What is it like to have a body? [PDF]

, 2012
Few questions in psychology are as fundamental or as elusive as the sense of one’s own body. Despite widespread recognition of the link between body and self, psychology has only recently developed methods for the scientific study of bodily awareness ...

A multi-level interface model for damaged masonry [PDF]

, 2013
The aim of the present work is to propose a new micro-mechanical model in the context of the deductive approach used to derive interface models. This model, based on a previous study introduced previously by A. Rekik and F.

Interface Pressure-Friction Mechanics of Neonatal Mattress-Textile Combinations

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering
In neonatal and infant care, the contact of skin with mattress and textile covers is particularly critical for preventing soft tissue damage due to their fragile skin. Textile covers can modify biomechanical load transfer by jointly affecting compression

Sketching-out virtual humans: A smart interface for human modelling and animation

, 2007
In this paper, we present a fast and intuitive interface for sketching out 3D virtual humans and animation. The user draws stick figure key frames first and chooses one for “fleshing-out” with freehand body contours.
