In muscle force analysis, orientations and moment arms of the muscles about a joint provide essential coefficients in equilibrium equations. For determination these parameters, several experimental techniques, including geometric measurement, tendon-joint displacement measurement direct load are available. Advantages disadvantages associated with each techniques reviewed compared based on our extensive experience.
Abstract This study proposes an AI-based filter-free wavelength sensor (FFS) system that identifies wavelengths using the absorption coefficient of silicon. Conventional systems rely on optical components, making them complex and difficult to miniaturize. Additionally, signals are prone environmental electrical interference.

We have developed novel device architecture of comb-driven double-gimbal XY-stage high fill-factor (stage area / chip size), which has been realized for the first time by topologically separating actuator elements in two layers: all electrical parts (electrodes and interconnections) are Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) layer, while mechanical (suspensions, frame, XY-stage) substrate. Thanks to new layered structures, overall footprint made small. The moved 19µm X Y direction independently, also...
We have developed a surface stress sensor based on microelectromechanical Fabry–Perot interferometer with high wavelength selectivity by using Au half-mirrors, for highly sensitive label-free biosensing.
