This paper proposes an intuitive real-time robot control system using human body movement. Recently, it has been developed that motion generation for humanoid robots with reflecting human body movement, which is measured by a motion capture. However, in the existing studies about robot control system by human body movement, the detailed structure information of a robot, for example, degrees of ...

In this paper we present a new scheme for instrumentation, which has been inspired by the way small mammals sense their environment. We call this scheme Application Specific Instrumentation (ASIN). A conventional instrumentation system focuses on gathering as much information about the scene as possible. This, usually, is a generic system whose data can be used by another system to take a speci...

instruments have been traditionally used with a continuous rotary motion, but more recently, a new approach to the use of nickel-titanium instruments in a reciprocating movement has been introduced by Yared (2004). The clockwise (CW) and counter-clockwise (CCW) rotations used by Yared were four-tenths and two-tenths of a circle respectively, and the rotational speed utilized was 400 rpm. The co...

Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring is a set of monitoring techniques that reads electrical activity generated by the nervous system structures during surgeries. In non-trivial surgeries, neurophysiologists require significant number signals to be picked up check effects surgeon’s actions in real time or confirm correct nerves are selected. As result, cabling patient operating room can...

there are a lot of researches in the world about attacks on information systems (is). although there have been many attempts to classify threats of is’s especially in health information systems (his), it is still necessary for all health organization to identify new threats and their sources which threaten security of health care domain. the main aim of this paper is to present a research agend...

In the context of a larger project dealing with kansei analysis of movement, we present a basic method for applying real-time filters to human motion capture data in order to modify the perceived emotional affect of the movement. By employing a commercial realtime 3D package, we have been able to quickly prototype some interfaces to an as yet non-existent system. Filters are represented as phys...

The approach presented in this paper aims to support developers by delivering methods and IDE-based tools for semi-automatic source code instrumentation that improve efficiency and consistency of the instrumentation process, and thus reduces the overall effort to be put into instrumentation. Our solution focuses on code generation for logging and performance monitoring purposes. The resulting t...

Instrumentation is a critical part of evaluating an enterprise distributed real-time and embedded (DRE) system’s performance. Traditional techniques for instrumenting enterprise DRE systems require DRE system developers to make design decisions regarding what metrics to collect during early phases of the software lifecycle so these needs can be factored into the system architecture. In many cir...

In this paper, we present the Prophesy Automatic Instrumentation and Data Entry (PAIDE) system and describe its design framework and implementation supporting C, Fortran77 and Fortran90 programs on diverse systems. We use NAS Conjugate Gradient (CG) and Integer Sort (IS) benchmarks to analyze the PAIDE’s instrumentation overheads for two granularities of instrumentation with increasing number o...

This article presents a method to fabricate, measure and control a physical simulation of the human defecatory system to investigate individual and combined effects of anorectal angle and sphincter pressure on continence. To illustrate the capabilities and clinical relevance of the work, the influence of a passive-assistive artificial anal sphincter (FENIXTM) is evaluated. A model rectum and as...
