Exploring multimodal gait rehabilitation and assistance through an adaptable robotic platform (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Lower-limb exoskeletons and smart walkers are robotic devices to assist patients in regaining their autonomy after a stroke. The integration of these devices enables gait rehabilitation and functional compensation, promoting natural over-ground walki...

Effects of stance control via hidden Markov model-based gait phase detection on healthy users of an active hip-knee exoskeleton (2023)
Journal Article

Introduction: In the past years, robotic lower-limb exoskeletons have become a powerful tool to help clinicians improve the rehabilitation process of patients who have suffered from neurological disorders, such as stroke, by applying intensive and re...

Haptic human-robot collaboration for walker-assisted navigation based on admittance controllers (2023)
Journal Article

In recent years, advances in robotics and the constant growth of gait-related pathologies led to the development of different assistive devices. Smart walkers provide natural and intuitive strategies for gait assistance, such as path-following and gu...

Soft-sensor system for grasp type recognition in underactuated hand prostheses (2023)
Journal Article

This paper presents the development of an intelligent soft-sensor system to add haptic perception to the underactuated hand prosthesis PrHand. Two sensors based on optical fiber were constructed, one for finger joint angles and the other for fingerti...

Improving health and safety promotion with a robotic tool: A case study for face mask detection (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Social robots have been shown to effectively promote healthy behaviour in humans. In the context of the pandemic, these robots have been used to encourage the use of face masks and other biosafety measures. However, human perception in these scenario...

Do different robot appearances change emotion recognition in children with ASD? (2023)
Journal Article

Introduction: Socially Assistive Robotics has emerged as a potential tool for rehabilitating cognitive and developmental disorders in children with autism. Social robots found in the literature are often able to teach critical social skills, such as... Read More about Do different robot appearances change emotion recognition in children with ASD?.
