Multi-point independent simultaneous force measurements were made to investigate the vibration force distribution on the palm and to determine one representative point on it for the purpose of field survey. The phase relationships between the force and the acceleration were also pursued. In connection with vibration force transmission, important effects such as vector, bypassing and mechanical ...

Increasing the level of transparency in rehabilitation devices has been one of the main goals in robot-aided neurorehabilitation for the past two decades. This issue is particularly important to robotic structures that mimic the human counterpart’s morphology and attach directly to the limb. Problems arise for complex joints such as the human wrist, which cannot be accurately matched with a tra...

East Kutai Regency has the second largest area in Regency. In various ways, local government tried to increase economic growth and poverty alleviation, but these problems have not achieved desired results. This study aims determine direct indirect effects of private investment, labor force, infrastructure spending, human development index on levels To analyze data used path analysis. The is sec...

Human–robot collaborative systems have the potential to dramatically change many aspects of surgery, manufacturing, hazardous-material handling, and other dextrous tasks. We are particularly interested in precise manipulation tasks, which are typically performed under an admittance-control regime, where the controlled velocity of a non-backdrivable robot is proportional to the sensed user-appli...

With regard to both human and robot capabilities, human-robot interaction provides several benefits, and this will be significantly developed and implemented. This work focuses on the development of real-time external force/position control used for human-robot interaction. The force-controlled robotic system integrated with proportional integral control was performed and evaluated to ensure it...

For robot path generation, a lot of researches have been done including automatic path planning, and teaching/playback. Teleoperation is commonly used in order to control a robot from remote site, dealing with unknown environment. To increase the accuracy and the reliability of teleoperation, close interaction between human and the slave robot is required. Many force feedback devices and contro...

Studies on human motor control demonstrated the existence of simplifying strategies (namely ‘Donders’ law’) adopted to deal with kinematically redundant motor tasks. In recent research we showed that Donders’ law also holds for human wrist during pointing tasks, and that it is heavily perturbed when interacting with a highly back-drivable state-of-the-art rehabilitation robot. We hypothesized t...

Analysis of human hand grasping operation provides information for developing robot hand grasping algorithms based on human knowledge and experience. Hand grasping analysis involves finger movement and contact force acting on the fingertips. We present a master hand put on a human hand to measure fingertip movement and contact force acting on the human fingertips. The master hand consists of se...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The two most common complications of femoral impaction bone grafting are femoral fracture and massive implant subsidence. We investigated fracture forces and implant subsidence rates in embalmed human femurs undergoing impaction grafting. The study consisted of two arms, the first examining the force at which femoral fracture occurs in the embalmed human femur, and the se...

A study on force-feedback interaction with a model of a neural oscillator provides insight into enhanced humanrobot interactions for controlling musical sound. We provide differential equations and discrete-time computable equations for the core oscillator model developed by Edward Large for simulating rhythm perception. Using a mechanical analog parameterization, we derive a force-feedback mod...
