Device, System, and Method for Robot-Controlled Induction of the Feeling of Human Presence

Olaf Blanke, Giulio Rognini, Masayuki Hara

A method for inducing the feeling of a presence (FoP) in a subject by using a master-slave robotic system, the method including the steps of altering a visual perception of a surrounding environment of the subject, connecting the subject with a robotic mas ...

Trunk postural tracking of assistive soft pneumatic actuator belt

Jamie Paik, Matthew Aaron Robertson

Fiber-reinforced Soft Pneumatic Actuators (SPAs) are found in mobile robots, assistive wearable devices, and rehabilitative technologies. Being intrinsically compliant and readily manufacturable they are attractive for use where safety and customizability ...

Series Elastic Actuation for Assistive Orthotic Devices: Case Study of Pneumatic Actuator

Hannes Bleuler, Mohamed Bouri, Jonathan Olivier, Amalric Louis Ortlieb

Wearable assistive robotics is a modern field where intelligent actuated systems work in collaboration with the body to replace a lost limb, to enhance performances (e.g. carrying load, walking, running, jumping) or to train or rehabilitate specific activi ...

Evaluation of the effects of the Arm Light Exoskeleton on movement execution and muscle activities: a pilot study on healthy subjects

Silvestro Micera, Elvira Pirondini, Martina Coscia, Massimo Bergamasco

Background: Exoskeletons for lower and upper extremities have been introduced in neurorehabilitation because they can guide the patient's limb following its anatomy, covering many degrees of freedom and most of its natural workspace, and allowing the contr ...

Designing a virtual whole body tactile sensor suit for a simulated humanoid robot using inverse dynamics

Auke Ijspeert, Salman Faraji

In this paper, we propose a novel architecture to estimate external forces applied to a compliantly controlled balancing robot in simulations. We use similar dynamics equations used in the controller to find mismatches in the available sensory data and ass ...

Aging setup for high cycle tests on dielectric elastomer actuators

Herbert Shea, Samuel Rosset, Christine Anne de Saint-Aubin

To be implemented at the industrial scale, any dielectric elastomer actuator (DEA) must demonstrate long term reliability. For this purpose, a novel and fast DEA aging setup for high cycle tests has been developed. It monitors the in-plane strain and the c ...

Concept of a soft exosuit for the support of leg function in rehabilitation

In the past couple of years, the concept of exosuits has emerged. These soft, robotic devices are primarily made of textiles and can be worn like clothes. They assist the user during specific motions by transmitting forces around the human joints making us ...

A lower limb exoskeleton research platform to investigate human-robot interaction

Designing the underlying mechanical structure of lower limb exoskeletons for assistance and rehabilitation is a demanding task that requires a good understanding of the interaction that takes place between the exoskeleton and the human user wearing it. Oft ...

Compliant snake robot locomotion on horizontal pipes

Auke Ijspeert, Kamilo Andres Melo Becerra, Mehmet Hasan Mutlu, Massimo Vespignani

In this paper we introduce a body-compliant Modular Snake Robot executing rolling gaits on different cylindrical geometries. In the state of the art it is considered that an active shape adaptation to the terrain while a gait is executed produces better pe ...
