Toward higher-performance bionic limbs for wider clinical use

Most prosthetic limbs can autonomously move with dexterity, yet they are not perceived by the user as belonging to their own body. Robotic limbs can convey information about the environment with higher precision than biological limbs, but their actual perf ...

Highly Stretchable Flame-Retardant Skin for Soft Robotics with Hydrogel-Montmorillonite-Based Translucent Matrix

Hritwick Banerjee

Flame-retardant coatings are crucial for intelligent systems operating in high-temperature (300-800 degrees C) scenarios, which typically involve multi-joint discrete or continuous kinematic systems. These multi-segment motion generation systems call for c ...

Hallucination Engineering: From Neuroscience Robotics to Hallucinations in Health and Disease

Eva Blondiaux

My thesis focuses on a psychotic symptom called the presence hallucination (PH). PHs are defined as the false perception that someone is nearby when no one is actually present. PHs can occur in various populations, ranging from healthy subjects (when expos ...

Sensitivity to temporal parameters of intraneural tactile sensory feedback

Silvestro Micera, Stanisa Raspopovic, Francesco Maria Petrini, Ivo Strauss, Giacomo Valle, Edoardo D'Anna

Background Recent studies have shown that neural stimulation can be used to provide artificial sensory feedback to amputees eliciting sensations referred on the amputated hand. The temporal properties of the neural stimulation modulate aspects of evoked se ...

Piezoelectric Grippers for Mobile Micromanipulation

Tristan Abondance, Kaushik Jayaram

The ability to efficiently and precisely manipulate objects in inaccessible environments is becoming an essential requirement for many applications of mobile robots, particularly at small sizes. Here, we propose and implement a mobile micromanipulation sol ...

Brain reactions to the use of sensorized hand prosthesis in amputees

Silvestro Micera, Stanisa Raspopovic, Francesco Maria Petrini, Ivo Strauss, Giacomo Valle, Fabrizio Vecchio, Francesco Iberite, Edoardo D'Anna

Objective We investigated for the first time the presence of chronic changes in the functional organization of sensorimotor brain areas induced by prolonged training with a bidirectional hand prosthesis. Methods A multimodal neurophysiological and neuroima ...

Soft And Wearable Transducers: Opportunities And Challenges For Daily Use

Stéphanie Lacour

Soft bioelectronic interfaces are broadly defined as microfabricated devices, distributed over large-areas, and with mechanical properties suited to comply the soft and dynamic biological tissues. The hybrid integration and processing of materials ranging ...

Brain-Computer Interface Racing at the Cybathlon 2016

Brain-computer interfaces measure the electricity produced by the brain and translate it into commands that are sent to a machine. However, it is often difficult to judge how quickly a user will be able to perform a task using a brain-computer interface wi ...
