Sprawling posture robots are characterized by upper limb segments protruding horizontally from the body, resulting in lower body height and wider support on the ground. Combined with an actuated segmented spine and tail, such morphology resembles that of s ...
Robotic algorithms that augment movement errors have been proposed as promising training strategies to enhance motor learning and neurorehabilitation. However, most research effort has focused on rehabilitation of upper limbs, probably because large moveme ...
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a major cause of paralysis with currently no effective treatment.
Epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of the lumbar spinal cord has been shown to restore locomotion in animal models of SCI, but has not yet reached the same lev ...
This study explores the extent to which individuals embodied in Virtual Reality tend to self-attribute the movements of their avatar. More specifically, we tested subjects performing goal-directed movements and distorted the mapping between user and avatar ...
Tasks that require the cooperation of both hands and arms are common in human everyday life. Coordination helps to synchronize in space and temporally motion of the upper limbs. In fine bimanual tasks, coordination enables also to achieve higher degrees of ...
Rodent models are decisive for translational research in healthy and pathological conditions of motor function thanks to specific similarities with humans. Here, we present an upgraded version of the M-Platform, a robotic device previously designed to trai ...
Many manipulations in human everyday activities rely on the collaboration of our two hands. Bimanual fine manipulation tasks are particularly demanding as precise coordination among fingers of both hands is required. Yet, despite the abundant degrees of fr ...
Cybersickness continues to be one of the main barriers for mainstream adoption of Virtual Reality (VR). Despite the wealth of research available on this topic, it is still an unsolved problem. This paper explores the potential influence of cybersickness ov ...
Cybersickness is still an inevitable adverse effect when using VR systems, resulting in different levels of discomfort, and potentially breaking the immersive experience. To date, few studies have focused on exploring VR experience in the supine posture. R ...
Autonomous trajectory generation through generalization requires a database of motion, which can be difficult and time consuming to obtain. In this paper, we propose a method for autonomous expansion of a database for the generation of compliant and accura ...
