A modified LSTM model for Chinese sign language recognition using leap motion (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

At present, there are about 70 million deaf people using sign language in the world, but for most normal people, it is difficult to understand the meaning of the sign language expression. Therefore, it is of great importance to explore the ways of re... Read More about A modified LSTM model for Chinese sign language recognition using leap motion.

Educating engineers to contribute to a regional goal of net zero carbon emissions by 2030 (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The environmental and health impacts of climate change and biodiversity loss are now apparent and yet cohesive policymaking to mitigate emissions is moving too slowly. The UK’s target for carbon neutrality has been set for 2050, but this has been sup... Read More about Educating engineers to contribute to a regional goal of net zero carbon emissions by 2030.

Haptic teleoperation goes wireless: Evaluation and benchmarking of a high-performance low-power wireless control technology (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Communication delays and packet losses are commonly investigated issues in the area of robotic teleoperation. This paper investigates application of a novel low-power wireless control technology (GALLOP) in a haptic teleoperation scenario developed t...

The AGoRA V2 unilateral lower-limb exoskeleton: Mechatronic integration and biomechanical assessment (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

People who suffer from stroke have a higher difficulty performing gait activity, affecting their quality of life. New technologies have been developed to assist and rehabilitate the affected limbs. This paper presents the AGoRA V2 unilateral lower-li... Read More about The AGoRA V2 unilateral lower-limb exoskeleton: Mechatronic integration and biomechanical assessment.

The PrHand: Functional assessment of an underactuated soft-robotic prosthetic hand (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Functional tests aim to compare the functionality of a prosthesis with a human hand. The main objective of this work is to present and evaluate an affordable prosthesis (PrHand) built with soft robotic technologies and novel joints based on compliant...

Ontology-based situation awareness for air and space traffic management (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The rapid technological and business advances of point-to-point space transport prompt the need for an integrated Air Traffic Management (ATM) and Space Traffic Management (STM) framework. The introduction of a more flexible airspace and vehicle/traj... Read More about Ontology-based situation awareness for air and space traffic management.

A novel robot skill learning framework based on bilateral teleoperation (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In this paper, a bilateral teleoperation-based robot skill learning framework is developed to transfer multi-step and contact manipulation skills from humans to robots. Robot skill acquisition via bilateral teleoperation provides a solution for human... Read More about A novel robot skill learning framework based on bilateral teleoperation.

Feeling the pressure: The influence of vibrotactile patterns on feedback perception (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Tactile feedback is necessary for closing the sen-sorimotor loop in prosthetic and tele-operable control, which would allow for more precise manipulation and increased acceptance of use of such devices. Pressure stimuli are commonly presented to user... Read More about Feeling the pressure: The influence of vibrotactile patterns on feedback perception.
