Parallel kinematics structures currently find increasing industrial applications, particularly in packaging and assembly. With very few exceptions, machine-tools with parallel kinematics are limited to mechanisms with three or six degrees of freedom. Moreo ...
If you need to design ultra-high precision devices for mechanisms with multiple axes there are not a lot of ways leading around flexure-based joints. Using this type of articulations totally eliminates backlash and friction and is, by this, providing an ac ...
A new method of monitoring physical activity that is able to detect walking upstairs using a miniature gyroscope attached to the shank is presented. Wavelet transformation, in conjunction with a simple kinematics model, was used to detect toe-off, heel-str ...
A new method of measuring joint angle using a combination of accelerometers and gyroscopes is presented. The method proposes a minimal sensor configuration with one sensor module mounted on each segment. The model is based on estimating the acceleration of ...
This work investigates whether population vector coding could be a principle mechanism for sensorimotor transformations. This paper presents a formal demonstration of how population vector coding can proceed arbitrary 3- dimensional rotations and translati ...
Measures of signal complexity can be used to distinguish neurophysiological activation from noise in those neuroimaging techniques where we record variations of brain activity with time, e.g., fMRI, EEG, ERP. In this paper we explore a recently developed a ...
Systematic and random errors inherently present in all inertial sensors contribute to the long-term divergence of the navigation solution of an Inertial Navigation System (INS). To keep such long-term divergence under control while taking advantage of thei ...
Standardization can be performed only in a field in which the knowledge of the physical phenomena and of the behavior of the given installation is sufficiently known. The role of the universities is to perform research in order to clarify such these points ...
Over the last few years, research had been conducted on how to develop basic mobility aid for visually impaired and blind people using vision and image processing techniques. However, our research at Geodetic Engineering Laboratory has taken a different vi ...
A novel method is proposed to measure the local birefringence in a standard fibre using the polarisation dependence of stimulated Brillouin scattering, in a non-destructive and simple way. ...
