Enhancing self-directed upper-limb (UL) exercise practice using GripAble gaming device and Lycra arm sleeve in people with stroke (PwS): An evaluative study (2023)
Presentation / Conference
Pearce, A., Ruiz Garate, V., Welsby, J., Caleb-Solly, P., & Kumar, P. (2023, December). Enhancing self-directed upper-limb (UL) exercise practice using GripAble gaming device and Lycra arm sleeve in people with stroke (PwS): An evaluative study. Poster presented at UK Stroke Forum, Birmingham

Background: The national clinical guidelines recommend repetitive task training to enhance UL rehabilitation in PwS. GripAble™ (a self-directed exergaming device) has shown to increase repetitive practice in PwS. Previous studies have shown that a Ly...

Open-source re-configurable interfacing of Tobii Pro Glasses 2 with ROS2 (2022)
Presentation / Conference
Nunez Sardinha, E., & Ruiz Garate, V. (2022, October). Open-source re-configurable interfacing of Tobii Pro Glasses 2 with ROS2. Paper presented at XR & Robotics Workshop at IROS 2022, Kyoto International Conference Center (ICC Kyoto) Takaragaike, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto 606-0001 Japan

Gaze tracking is a powerful assistive tool enabling people with severe disabilities to interact with complex systems intuitively. Among these, screen-based gaze-control is one of the main input tools used with people with severe mobility impairments,...

Bio-inspired model for locomotion assistance (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Ruiz Garate, V., Collard, J., & Ronsse, R. (2014, October). Bio-inspired model for locomotion assistance. Paper presented at 7th International Workshop on Human-Friendly Robotics (HFR2014), Pontedera, Italy

The main objective of this work is obtaining a framework able to provide bio-inspired torque assistance to disabled humans during walking and stair ascending/descending. The method is based on a bioinspired model copying natural dynamics of the leg m... Read More about Bio-inspired model for locomotion assistance.
