Abstract Human motion capture (MOCAP) systems are vital while determining the loads occurring at joints. Most of clinical MOCAP very costly, requiring investment and infrastructure. Therefore, alternative technologies in demand. In this study, a novel markerless wearable system was assessed for its compatibility with biomechanical modeling software. To collect evidence, experiments were designed two stages quantifying range (ROM) hip joint, vitro vivo. Three constrained single-plane...
This study introduces a novel single-degree-of-freedom polycentric knee mechanism specifically designed for transfemoral prostheses to address dual challenges of stability during the stance phase and biomimetic motion swing phase. Leveraging analytical kinematic synthesis, proposed integrates separate designs each gait phases into combined structure that prevents singularity issues full flexion, which is significant limitation in conventional active designs. The emphasizes through precise...
Motion Capture (MOCAP) systems provide kinematic data as an output. Biomechanical models use this input to calculate the forces acting on joints of human body. For high bio-fidelity modelling, accurate daily life are required. Here, we asses a novel marker-less wearable MOCAP system, SmartSuit Pro (Rokoko, Copenhagen, Denmark) for feeding in biomechanical modelling software. This suit is utilised medical collection purposes first time. The study provides proof concept upper body motion vitro...
Abstract Background The method of stem cell transfer to narrow cochlear canals in vivo generate hair cells is still an unclear operation. Thus, the development any possible that will ensure usage medical microrobots small workspaces a challenging procedure. Methods current study tries introduce macro‐micro manipulator system composed 6‐DoF industrial serial as macro and proposed 5‐DoF parallel with dual end effectors micro carrying permanent magnets for tetherless microrobot actuation inside...
Rockets are generally used for defense purposes, civilian satellite launching and orbiting keeping the in orbit. Chemical fuel rockets examined three groups as solid rockets, liquid hybrid rockets. Due to cost complexity of explosion hazard thrust control problems studies on use have recently become more common, considering safety advantage. In this study, thrust-time change was determined PVC..................
This study introduces a compact low-cost single degree of freedom end-effector type upper arm rehabilitation system (PARS) along with its hardware and software elements. Proposed is also suitable to be used in conjunction gaming environment. Throughout the structural setup was explained detail electronics, control software. Introduced virtual interface supports various game levels different difficulties generated via interaction algorithms. Having simple design constructed by using basic...
Throughout history, humans have observed living or non-living things in nature and then imitated them relation to these observations. This is due the fact that energy found generally consumed at an optimal level order for it endure. Biomimetic inspiration many designs applications widely displayed, including within field of engineering. In this paper, we were inspired by double set jaws moray eel, which gives fish a huge advantage while hunting, with mobile pharyngeal jaw works together its...
Abstract This article focuses on the design procedures of Alizade's direct and Gezgin's inverse structural synthesis methodologies for platform type manipulators. These task-based include versatile any designer to generate various platform-type manipulators with respect given constraints via simple universal mobility formulation. However, they rely manual generation mobility-independent coarse topological structures, where it is nearly impossible all possible results. In light this, current...
Transition from the utilisation of traditional instruments to new robotic methodologies in surgical operations occurs rapidly. Although implementation these classical surgery is advantageous due increased precisions and enhanced motion capabilities systems, overall worldwide accessibility adaptation are still limited high equipment costs special infrastructure requirements.The design four degrees freedom low cost, compact portable manipulation system was proposed allow commercial forceps...
Neurological disorders influence human life by destructing neural commands. In such cases, rehabilitation procedures should be applied to the patients immediately in order create plasticity and regain affected motor functions. On other hand as number of available physical therapists is limited requires heavy cumbersome work that affects overall quality treatments, immediate interventions are after accidents. As a result, studies towards robotics related literature includes both design...
Throughout human life, neurological disorders may occur in body parts with accidents or other biological factors by destroying nerve commands. Stroke is one of the main causes among these disorders. Increase stroke cases to increase requirement continuous and efficient repetitive physiotherapy exercises that have great benefits restoring functional losses retraining motor movements. As a result, demand treatments increases parallel it needs be fulfilled simplest fastest way. Given facts,...
In this research, we present an approach to development of augmented reality application for teaching mechanism and robotics in ROS (Robot Operating System). Our uses Unity (Vuforia), SolidWorks that allows a user specify high-level requests the 6 degree freedom robot manipulator, build, approve or modify computed motions. The proposed exploits requiring low-level motion specifications provided by user. Furthermore, can be used education purposes. end, discussion its applicability...
Road vehicles using electric power sources have become increasingly popular in the last decade. Meanwhile, battery technology is still not mature enough to meet expected vehicle range; thus transition from ICE fully imminent. Therefore concept of hybrid drivetrain was introduced. The powertrain configuration includes at least two different energy converters together with an storage medium. In this article, gear shifting algorithms were introduced increase efficiency conventional vehicle....
One of the methods used in upper extremity function assessment is Range Motion (ROM) measurements. In practice, these measurements are performed by a clinicians' personal observations and/or goniometric measurements, there some problems related to repeatibility and reliability criterias. this study, novel system which contains only single camera perform ROM calculations objectively suggested. For purpose shoulder elbow flexion movements were recorded analyzed. The was compared with known as...
