Prediction of the wrist joint position during a postural tremor using neural oscillators and an adaptive controller

open access: yesJournal of Medical Signals and Sensors, 2016
The prediction of the joint angle position, especially during tremor bursts, can be useful for detecting, tracking, and forecasting tremors. Thus, this research proposes a new model for predicting the wrist joint position during rhythmic bursts and inter-

Liquid Metal Reversible Contacts for Flexible Tactile Sensor with High Sensitivity and Wide Detection Range

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work presents a novel flexible tactile sensor based on the unconventional reversible contact behavior between liquid metal droplets (LMDs), with high‐pressure sensitivity and a broad working range. The 2‐LMD‐based sensor is capable of monitoring human motion and physiological signals, while electrical impedance tomography enables precise shape and

Soft Robots Proprioception Through Stretchable Laser‐Induced Graphene Strain Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the potential of laser‐induced graphene and silicone sensors for soft pneumatic grippers’ proprioception. The sensors are thin, stretchable, mechanically transparent, and easy to integrate. Finite‐element method analysis identifies the finger's neutral bending plane and four sensor positions are tested to validate the ...

A Soft Pneumatic Exosuit to Assist Pronosupination in Individuals with Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A lightweight (30 g) textile‐based pneumatic exosuit assists forearm pronosupination in individuals with cervical spinal cord injury. The soft robot enhances forearm range of motion and reduces muscle effort without hindering hand function. Tested in 10 patients during an interactive exergame, it improves motor performance and demonstrates promise for ...
