Conceptualization of Cloud-Based Motion Analysis and Navigation for Wearable Robotic Applications

open access: yesSensors
The behavior of pedestrians in a non-constrained environment is difficult to predict. In wearable robotics, this poses a challenge, since devices like lower-limb exoskeletons and active orthoses need to support different walking activities, including ...

Design and assembly of a magneto-inertial wearable device for ecological behavioural analysis of infants

open access: yes, 2008
There are recent evidence which show how brain development is strictly linked to the action. Movements shape and are, in turn, shaped by cortical and sub-cortical areas.

A wearable soft robot for movement assistance on eyelid closure

open access: yesROBOMECH Journal, 2018
We present a facial wearable robot to support eyelid movement for patients with hemifacial paralysis. People with facial paralysis are not able to blink, which leads to dry eyes and could cause permanent damage to the cornea.
