Development of an Active Gait Assistive Device with Haptic Information

Simulation of the Admittance Control Based Haptic Interface Device

Design of an Assistive Gait Device for Strength Endurance and Rehabilitation

1.1 Background Exoskeletons for human performance augmentation (EHPA) are controlled and wearable devices and machines that can increase the speed, strength, and endurance of the operator. EHPA is expected to do that by increasing the physical performance of the solider wearing it, including: • Increased payload: more fire power, more supplies, and thicker and heavier armor increasing the soldi...

development and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle

in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...

An assistive device for persons with severe amnesia.

Five persons with severe amnesia were trained to use a device containing items of information relevant to daily activities. The training consisted of a procedure in which requests for information were paired with a tone, and the subject was required to access the device and respond with the answer to the request. The tone was gradually faded, with the goal of having the subject respond to a que...

Clutchable Series Elastic Actuator for a Gait-Assistive Active Orthosis for Subjects with SCI

A spinal cord injury (SCI) disrupts the motor and sensory functions of the nervous system, limitingmotion capabilities and reducing the quality of life of affected people. An active stance-control knee-ankle-foot orthosis was developed and tested to aid incomplete SCI subjects by increasing theirmobility and independence [1]. A further improvement of the orthosis is conducted by...
