A Continuous Teleoperation Subspace with Empirical and Algorithmic Mapping Algorithms for Non-Anthropomorphic Hands
Cassie Meeker, Maximilian Haas-Heger, Matei Ciocarlie
Teleoperation is a valuable tool for robotic manipulators in highly unstructured environments. However, finding an intuitive mapping between a human hand and a non-anthropomorphic…
User-Driven Functional Movement Training with a Wearable Hand Robot after Stroke
Sangwoo Park, Michaela Fraser, Lynne M. Weber +5
We studied the performance of a robotic orthosis designed to assist the paretic hand after stroke. It is wearable and fully user-controlled, serving two possible roles: as a therap…
EMG-Controlled Non-Anthropomorphic Hand Teleoperation Using a Continuous Teleoperation Subspace
Cassie Meeker, Matei Ciocarlie
We present a method for EMG-driven teleoperation of non-anthropomorphic robot hands. EMG sensors are appealing as a wearable, inexpensive, and unobtrusive way to gather information…
Multimodal Sensing and Interaction for a Robotic Hand Orthosis
Sangwoo Park, Cassie Meeker, Lynne M. Weber +3
Wearable robotic hand rehabilitation devices can allow greater freedom and flexibility than their workstation-like counterparts. However, the field is generally lacking effective m…
Intuitive Hand Teleoperation by Novice Operators Using a Continuous Teleoperation Subspace
Cassie Meeker, Thomas Rasmussen, Matei Ciocarlie
Human-in-the-loop manipulation is useful in when autonomous grasping is not able to deal sufficiently well with corner cases or cannot operate fast enough. Using the teleoperator's…
EMG Pattern Classification to Control a Hand Orthosis for Functional Grasp Assistance after Stroke
Cassie Meeker, Sangwoo Park, Lauri Bishop +2
Wearable orthoses can function both as assistive devices, which allow the user to live independently, and as rehabilitation devices, which allow the user to regain use of an impair…
