Virtual Landmark-Based Control of Docking Support for Assistive Mobility Devices
Yang Chen, Diego Paez-Granados, Bruno Leme +1
This work proposes an autonomous docking control for nonholonomic constrained mobile robots and applies it to an intelligent mobility device or wheelchair for assisting the user in…
Passive Flow Control for Series Inflatable Actuators: Application on a Wearable Soft-Robot for Posture Assistance
Diego Paez-Granados, Takehiro Yamamoto, Hideki Kadone +1
This paper presents a passive control method for multiple degrees of freedom in a soft pneumatic robot through the combination of flow resistor tubes with series inflatable actuato…
Facial movement synergies and Action Unit detection from distal wearable Electromyography and Computer Vision
Monica Perusquia-Hernandez, Felix Dollack, Chun Kwang Tan +3
Distal facial Electromyography (EMG) can be used to detect smiles and frowns with reasonable accuracy. It capitalizes on volume conduction to detect relevant muscle activity, even…
Control Interface for Hands-free Navigation of Standing Mobility Vehicles based on Upper-Body Natural Movements
Yang Chen, Diego Paez-Granados, Hideki Kadone +1
In this paper, we propose and evaluate a novel human-machine interface (HMI) for controlling a standing mobility vehicle or person carrier robot, aiming for a hands-free control th…
A Systematic Literature Review of Experiments in Socially Assistive Robotics using Humanoid Robots
Floris Erich, Masakazu Hirokawa, Kenji Suzuki
We perform a Systematic Literature Review to discover how Humanoid robots are being applied in Socially Assistive Robotics experiments. Our search returned 24 papers, from which 16…
