Rapid Embedded Programming in the Mathworks Environment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: New, commercially available, automatic, code-generation tools are used in teaching and lab exercises to progress from controller design, to simulation, and finally to implementation on mechanical ...
Design and Control of a Compliant Parallel Manipulator
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We describe a novel design for a compliant arm that can be mounted on a mobile robot. Because the arm is compliant, a mobile robot can manipulate or interact with objects that are not ...
Design of Lightweight Lead Screw Actuators for Wearable Robotic Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A wearable robot is a controlled and actuated device that is in direct contact with its user. As such, the implied requirements of this device are that it must be portable, lightweight, and ...
An Active Foot-Ankle Prosthesis With Biomechanical Energy Regeneration
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A unique, robust, robotic transtibial prosthesis with regenerative kinetics was successfully built and a 6-month human subject trial was conducted on one male below-the-knee amputee under linear ...
An Efficient Robotic Tendon for Gait Assistance
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A robotic tendon is a spring based, linear actuator in which the stiffness of the spring is crucial for its successful use in a lightweight, energy efficient, powered ankle orthosis. Like its ...
Design of a Robotic Gait Trainer using Spring Over Muscle Actuators for Ankle Stroke Rehabilitation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Repetitive task training is an effective form of rehabilitation for people suffering from debilitating injuries of stroke. We present the design and working concept of a robotic gait trainer ...
