Robot Hand Synergy Mapping Using Multi-factor Model and EMG Signal
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, it is investigated how a robot hand can be controlled from a human motion and an EMG signal in a tele-operation system. The proposed method uses a tensor to represent a multi-factor model relevant to different individuals and motions in multiple dimensions. Therefore, the synergies extracted by the proposed algorithm can account for not only various grasping motions but also the different characteristics of different people. Moreover, a synergy-level controller which generates motion and force of the robot is developed with postural synergies and an EMG signal. The effectiveness of the proposed new mapping algorithm is verified through experiments, which demonstrate better representation of hand motions with synergies and greater performance on grasping tasks than those of conventional synergy-based algorithms.

Map-merging in Multi-robot Simultaneous Localization and Mapping Process Using Two Heterogeneous Ground Robots
In this article, a fast and reliable map-merging algorithm is proposed to produce a global two dimensional map of an indoor environment in a multi-robot simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) process. In SLAM process, to find its way in this environment, a robot should be able to determine its position relative to a map formed from its observations. To solve this complex problem, simultan...

Background: Electromyography (EMG) signal processing and Muscle Onset Latency (MOL) are widely used in rehabilitation sciences and nerve conduction studies. The majority of existing software packages provided for estimating MOL via analyzing EMG signal are computerized, desktop based and not portable; therefore, experiments and signal analyzes using them should be completed locally. Moreover, a...

One of the important issues in designing a brain-computer interface system is to select the type of mental activity to be imagined. In some of these systems, mental activity varies with user intent and action that must be controlled by the brain-computer system, and in a number of other signals, the received signals contain the same activity-related mental activity that should be performed by t...

Background and aims : In our daily lives hand tools are often used in many work situations. With respect to design characteristics, hand tools can be considered a risk factor when a high level of repetition are required or when awkward postures are adopted. Therefore attention to ergonomics design rules for hand tools is the most important factor in design process. With this in mind, the aim ...

Even when simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) solutions have been broadly developed, the vast majority of them relate to a single robot performing measurements in static environments. Researches show that the performance of SLAM algorithms deteriorates under dynamic environments. In this paper, a multi-robot simultaneous localization and mapping (MR-SLAM) system is implemented within a...
