In this paper, we propose a method to overlay an arbitrary texture onto a T-shirt worn by a user. To realize such a system, two phases, an offline phase and an online phase are required. During the offline phase, we use a T-shirt with several markers for training images and establishing a correspondence between the shape of the T-shirt area and the array of markers. During the online phase, we ...

Rheumatoid arthritis and osteo-arthritis are the most two common types of rheumatic diseases, a condition that damages joints and affects their function. In this paper, we present a new solution to assist the arthritis and osteoarthritis treatment by the use of a new kind of tshirt based on the method of heating and vibration controlled via a mobile device. The system is tested on different pat...

INTRODUCTION Dexterity is described as coordinated hand and finger movement for precision tasks. It is essential for day-to-day activities like computer use, writing or buttoning a shirt. Integrity of brain motor networks is crucial to properly execute these fine hand tasks. When these networks are damaged, interventions to enhance recovery are frequently accompanied by unwanted side effects or...

Human object recognition and tracking is important in robotics and automation. The Kinect sensor and its SDK have provided a reliable human tracking solution where a constant line of sight is maintained. However, if the human object is lost from sight during the tracking, the existing method cannot recover and resume tracking the previous object correct...

elements include: “no war”, “peace”, “no conflict”, “harmony”, “living happily”, etc. AE1 = “no war”, AE2 = “peace”, AE3 = “no conflict”, AE4 = “harmony”, AE5 = “living happily”, etc. Partial meaning mapping based on the symbol of peace. Peace = “dove” and “symbol by Gerald Holtom”, “the broken riffle”, Harmony = “many” and, etc. M11 = (“peace”, “dove”), M12 = (“peace”, “symbol by Gerald Holtom...

Wearable devices represent a versatile technology in the IoT paradigm, enabling non-invasive and accurate data collection directly from human body. This paper describes development of smart shirt to monitor working conditions particularly dangerous workplaces. The wearable device integrates wide set sensors locally acquire user’s vital signs (e.g., heart rate, blood oxygenation, temperature) en...

Scapular dyskinesis in pitchers can potentially lead to impairments in the optimal performance of muscles of the shoulder complex. The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate whether the use of a scapula stabilizing t-shirt can decrease stress and discomfort in over-head baseball pitchers. Thirty-two semi-professional baseball pitchers were divided into 2 groups. Group A dressed the s...
