Soft-sensor system for grasp type recognition in underactuated hand prostheses (2023)
Journal Article
De Arco, L., Pontes, M. J., Segatto, M. E. V., Monteiro, M. E., Cifuentes, C. A., & Díaz, C. A. (2023). Soft-sensor system for grasp type recognition in underactuated hand prostheses. Sensors, 23(7), 3364. https://doi.org/10.3390/s23073364

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...

Do different robot appearances change emotion recognition in children with ASD? (2023)
Journal Article
Pinto-Bernal, M. J., Sierra M, S. D., Munera, M., Casas, D., Villa-Moreno, A., Frizera-Neto, A., …Cifuentes, C. A. (2023). Do different robot appearances change emotion recognition in children with ASD?. Frontiers in Neurorobotics, 17, Article 1044491. https://doi.org/10.3389/fnbot.2023.1044491

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?.
