The mobile arm support

Camera Augmented Mobile C-arm

Principle and design of a mobile arm support for people with muscular weakness.

This article describes the development of a mobile arm support for people with muscular diseases. The arm support is spring-balanced, with special attention on reduction of operating effort (high balancing quality and low friction), functionality (large range of motion), and aesthetics (inconspicuous design). The spring settings can be adjusted for wearing heavier clothing or picking up an obje...

Arm movement support device for rehabilitation

As modern society becomes increasingly more elderly, developing specialized equipment to assist this growing population in everyday tasks becomes more and more important. Here we have developed a passive gravity balanced arm support system. It was designed to assist the arm motion of elderly people with disabilities. The system consists of the joints and the link and the gas springs. This is a ...

SeCloak: ARM Trustzone-based Mobile Peripheral Control

Reliable on-off control of peripherals on smart devices is a key to security and privacy in many scenarios. Journalists want to reliably turn off radios to protect their sources during investigative reporting. Users wish to ensure cameras and microphones are reliably off during private meetings. In this paper, we present SeCloak, an ARM TrustZone-based solution that ensures reliable on-off cont...

Motion Planning for Dual-arm Mobile Manipulator

|When a mobile robot executes a given task in human-robot co-existence environment, it is necessary for the robot to perform robust motions and to have abilities to deal with unforeseen situations. Therefore we aim to realize an intelligent and robust motion for a dual-arm mobile manipulator. To carry out a research of intelligent motion, we set a concrete task as \grasping a book and returning...
