Personalized Body-Machine Interfaces for Advanced Human-Robot Interaction

Matteo Macchini

Robotic systems are becoming more and more pervasive in modern industrial, scientific and personal activities through recent years and will play a fundamental role in the future society. Despite their increasing level of automation, teleoperation is still ...

High-frequency broadband laser phase noise cancellation using a delay line

Timo Zwettler

Laser phase noise remains a limiting factor in many experimental settings, including metrology, time-keeping, as well as quantum optics. Hitherto this issue was addressed at low frequencies ranging from well below 1 Hz to maximally 100 kHz. However, a wide ...

Control Strategies for Lower-limb Exoskeletons: from Full Mobilization to Assistance of Balance

Romain Pierre François Baud

Bipedal locomotion is a remarkable feature of humans. This skill is necessary for the activities of daily living. Unfortunately, many people only partially benefit from it or miss it entirely because of a disability. This may result in a slower gait, less ...

Exploring the Contribution of Proprioceptive Reflexes to Balance Control in Perturbed Standing

Auke Ijspeert, Anne Daniëlle Koelewijn

Humans control balance using different feedback loops involving the vestibular system, the visual system, and proprioception. In this article, we focus on proprioception and explore the contribution of reflexes based on force and length feedback to standin ...

Drift-Free Foot Orientation Estimation in Running Using Wearable IMU

Kamiar Aminian, Grégoire Millet, Benoît Mariani, Mathieu Pascal Falbriard, Frédéric Meyer

This study aimed to introduce and validate a new method to estimate and correct the orientation drift measured from foot-worn inertial sensors. A modified strap-down integration (MSDI) was proposed to decrease the orientation drift, which, in turn, was fur ...

Arm-hand motion-force coordination for physical interactions with non-flat surfaces using dynamical systems: Toward compliant robotic massage

Aude Billard, Seyed Sina Mirrazavi Salehian, Mahdi Khoramshahi, Aileen Charlotte Naef, Karl Gustav Henriks

Many manipulation tasks require coordinated motions for arm and fingers. Complexity increases when the task requires to control for the force at contact against a non-flat surface; This becomes even more challenging when this contact is done on a human. Al ...

Hand-worn Haptic Interface for Drone Teleoperation

Dario Floreano, Fabrizio Schiano, Matteo Macchini

Drone teleoperation is usually accomplished using remote radio controllers, devices that can be hard to master for inexperienced users. Moreover, the limited amount of information fed back to the user about the robot's state, often limited to vision, can r ...

Intent Prediction Based on Biomechanical Coordination of EMG and Vision-Filtered Gaze for End-Point Control of an Arm Prosthesis

Aude Billard, Silvestro Micera, Iason Batzianoulis

We propose a novel controller for powered prosthetic arms, where fused EMG and gaze data predict the desired end-point for a full arm prosthesis, which could drive the forward motion of individual joints. We recorded EMG, gaze, and motion-tracking during p ...
