Characterization, Experimental Validation and Pilot User Study of the Vibro-Inertial Bionic Enhancement System (VIBES)
Alessia S. Ivani, Federica Barontini, Manuel G. Catalano +3
This study presents the characterization and validation of the VIBES, a wearable vibrotactile device that provides high-frequency tactile information embedded in a prosthetic socke…
Continual Learning in the Presence of Repetition
Hamed Hemati, Lorenzo Pellegrini, Xiaotian Duan +11
Continual learning (CL) provides a framework for training models in ever-evolving environments. Although re-occurrence of previously seen objects or tasks is common in real-world p…
Tactile Perception in Upper Limb Prostheses: Mechanical Characterization, Human Experiments, and Computational Findings
Alessia Silvia Ivani, Manuel G. Catalano, Giorgio Grioli +3
Our research investigates vibrotactile perception in four prosthetic hands with distinct kinematics and mechanical characteristics. We found that rigid and simple socket-based pros…
Investigating the Performance of Soft Robotic Adaptive Feet with Longitudinal and Transverse Arches
Anna Pace, Giorgio Grioli, Alice Ghezzi +2
Biped robots usually adopt feet with a rigid structure that simplifies walking on flat grounds and yet hinders ground adaptation in unstructured environments, thus jeopardizing sta…
Giant chirality-induced spin polarization in twisted transition metal dichalcogenides
Guido Menichetti, Lorenzo Cavicchi, Leonardo Lucchesi +6
Chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS) is an effect that has recently attracted a great deal of attention in chiral chemistry and that remains to be understood. In the CISS effe…
