This paper presents optimal trajectory planning and iterative learning control for a throwing manipulation which can control not only the position but also the orientation of a polygonal object robustly to uncertainties by low-degree-of-freedom robotic arm. We show experimentally the validity of the proposed method with the one-joint robotic arm. We also demonstrate the usefulness of the throwi...

A specific and early diagnosis must be made in the injured skeletally immature throwing athlete. A well-outlined program of rest, rehabilitation, and proper throwing techniques should be implemented and continued. Overuse injuries are preventable when biomechanics are sound and pitch counts are done with the limits enforced. Guidelines for inning limits, number of pitches, rest intervals, and t...

BACKGROUND Humeral retroversion angles determined by previous techniques are varied and/or biased by morphologic variations of the proximal and distal humerus, and their validity should be revisited. To overcome the limitations of previous studies associated with 2-dimensional (2D) images and the reference axes, a 3-dimensional (3D) measurement of humeral retroversion is required. However, comp...
