Developing a Low-Cost Force Treadmill via Dynamic Modeling

By incorporating force transducers into treadmills, force platform-instrumented treadmills (commonly called force treadmills) can collect large amounts of gait data and enable the ground reaction force (GRF) to be calculated. However, the high cost of force treadmills has limited their adoption. This paper proposes a low-cost force treadmill system with force sensors installed underneath a stan...

A Low Cost Three-directional Force Sensor

In this work a low cost sensor has been developed to measure three-directional forces. The theory, design and sensor construction details are presented. It was constructed by using commercial strain gauges. Finite element method was adopted to optimize the structure dimensions, and improve the sensitivity of force sensor by distributing the sensing stress on the maximum strain positions. A hard...

Developing a Low-Cost Robot Colony

Taking inspiration from nature, we have developed a colony of small, low-cost robots. We have created a robotic base which is inexpensive and utilizes simple sensors, yet has the capabilities required to form a colony. To overcome computational limitations, we have developed custom sensors and algorithms that enable the robots to communicate, localize relative to one another, and sense the envi...

Commercial Motion Sensor Based Low-Cost and Convenient Interactive Treadmill †

Interactive treadmills were developed to improve the simulation of overground walking when compared to conventional treadmills. However, currently available interactive treadmills are expensive and inconvenient, which limits their use. We propose a low-cost and convenient version of the interactive treadmill that does not require expensive equipment and a complicated setup. As a substitute for ...

Equilibrium Modeling and Kinetic Studies on the Adsorption of Basic Dye by a Low Cost Adsorbent

An agricultural waste and eco-friendly biosorbent i.e. rice husk has been used as a cheap adsorbentfor the removal of methylene blue dye from aqueous solutions. The physical properties of the developedadsorbent were characterized using FTIR. The study was realized using batch experiments. The effectsof contact time, pH, initial dye concentration, biosorbent dose and temperature were investigate...
