Journal Article
Chance, G., Chance, G., Camilleri, A., Winstone, B., Caleb-Solly, P., & Dogramadzi, S. (2016). An assistive robot to support dressing-strategies for planning and error handling. Proceedings of the ... IEEE/RAS-EMBS International Conference on Biomedical Robotics and Biomechatronics. IEEE/RAS-EMBS International Conference on Biomedical Robotics and Biomechatronics, 2016-July, 774-780. https://doi.org/10.1109/BIOROB.2016.7523721

© 2016 IEEE. Assistive robots are emerging to address a social need due to changing demographic trends such as an ageing population. The main emphasis is to offer independence to those in need and to fill a potential labour gap in response to the inc...

Cameras as cultural probes in requirements gathering - Exploring their potential in supporting the design of assistive technology (2011)
Journal Article
Caleb-Solly, P., Flind, A., & Vargheese, J. P. (2011). Cameras as cultural probes in requirements gathering - Exploring their potential in supporting the design of assistive technology. https://doi.org/10.1109/CBMS.2011.5999158

A pre-requisite for a human-centred design approach to technology development is gaining an intimate understanding of not only the people for whom the technology is being designed, but also the contexts within which they will be using it. This paper... Read More about Cameras as cultural probes in requirements gathering - Exploring their potential in supporting the design of assistive technology.

A preliminary investigation into the analysis of electromyographic activity using a system of multiple neural networks (1995)
Journal Article
Caleb, P., Caleb-Solly, P., Sharpe, P. K., & Jones, R. (1995). A preliminary investigation into the analysis of electromyographic activity using a system of multiple neural networks. Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence, 934 LNAI, 439-440. https://doi.org/10.1007/3-540-60025-6_177

Electromyography (EMG) is widely used by clinicians and therapists for diagnosis of certain neuromuscular disorders. This paper describes a preliminary examination of the application of multiple neural networks in the analysis of surface electromyogr...
