Abstract:
Muscle fatigue is characterised by a decrease in the ability of muscles to perform required functions, which is accompanied by accumulation of metabolites, changes in ionic balance and electrical properties of muscle tissue. These physiological changes lead to marked transformations of electromyographic (EMG) signals, including a shift of their spectrum to lower frequencies. Such changes affect the quality of signal recognition and control accuracy of bioelectric prostheses, since most myoelectric control algorithms are based on the stability of spectral and amplitude characteristics of EMG si

Abstract:
Alleviating the burden on amputees in terms of high-level control of their prosthetic devices is an open research challenge. EMG-based intention detection presents some limitations due to movement artifacts, fatigue, and stability. The integration of exteroceptive sensing can provide a valuable solution to overcome such limitations. In this paper, a novel semiautonomous control system (SCS) for wrist–hand prostheses using a computer vision system (CVS) is proposed and validated. The SCS integrates object detection, grasp selection, and wrist orientation estimation algorithms. By combining CVS

Background/ Objectives: This study explores an optimization-based strategy for muscle force estimation by employing simplified cost functions integrated with physiologically relevant muscle models. Methods: Considering elbow flexion as a case study, we employ an inverse-dynamics approach to estimate muscle forces for the biceps brachii, brachialis, and brachioradialis, utilizing different combinations of cost functions and muscle constitutive models. Muscle force generation is modeled by accounting for active and passive contractile behavior to varying degrees using Hill-type models. In total,

Abstract:
Inclusive design does not stop at removing physical obstacles such as staircases. It also involves identifying architectural features that impose sensory burdens, such as repetitive visual patterns that are known to potentially cause dizziness or visual discomfort. In order to assess their influence on human gait and its stability, three repetitive patterns—random dots, repetitive stripes, and repetitive waves (Lisbon pattern)—were displayed in a coloured and greyscale variant in a virtual reality (VR) environment. The movements of eight participants were recorded using a motion capture system

Abstract:
A soft exoskeleton for the hip flexion, named H-Suit, is developed to improve the walking endurance of lower limbs, delay muscle fatigue and reduce the activation level of hip flexors. Based on the kinematics and biomechanics of the hip joints, the ergonomic design of the H-Suit system is clearly presented and the prototype was developed. The profile of the auxiliary forces is planned in the auxiliary range where the forces start at the minimum hip angle, reach the maximum (120 N) and end at 90% of each gait cycle.

Abstract:
Recent advances in the performance and evaluation of walking in exoskeletons use various assessments based on kinematic/kinetic measurements. While such variables provide general characteristics of gait performance, only limited conclusions can be made about the neural control strategies. Moreover, some kinematic or kinetic parameters are a consequence of the control implemented on the exoskeleton. Therefore, standard indicators based on kinematic variables have limitations and need to be complemented by performance measures of muscle coordination and control strategy. Knowledge about what hap

This is due to the fact that the EMG reflects directly the muscle activity of the user following the human motion intention. Consequently, the decoding of this intention is an essential task for controlling devices such as prosthetic hands and exoskeletons, based on EMG signals.
