A Study Exploring the Use of Artificial Ligaments to Enhance the Human-Robot Interface Via Force Distribution Manipulation in Biomimetic Cuff Systems
… to manipulate the force distribution along the human-robot interface by reducing the amount of high pressure points. This reduction in pressure can potentially make the system more comfortable to wear for the user if the design fulfills its purpose. A rig to test out the force capabilities of …

Using 3D Visual Data to Build a Semantic Map for Autonomous Localization
Environment maps are essential for robots and intelligent gadgets to autonomously carry out tasks. Traditional maps built by visual sensors include metric ones and topological ones. These maps are navigation-oriented and not adequate for service robots or intelligent gadgets to interact with or …

Hand control of bipedal balance in quiet standing: implementations for lower extremity exoskeleton
Maintaining stable posture is important for humans, even though it is challenging because of our bipedal structure. One of the main balance related disorders is paraplegia due to spinal cord injury. People with a complete spinal cord injury have motor and sensory impairment that greatly reduces the …
