Thirteen osteoarthritis patients and thirteen healthy subjects were selected to be part of this pilot experiment, which intends to acquire and calculate spatiotemporal and human-interaction parameters from walker-assisted ambulation. A comparison is made between the spatiotemporal parameters of healthy subjects and the ones of patients with osteoarthritis. Moreover, it is made an analysis of the effect that change of direction in walker-assisted ambulation can have on spatiotemporal parameters. Results have shown that 1) velocity, step length and distance to the walker are significantly affected by the change of direction, and 2) distance to the walker and step length can distinguish between healthy subjects and patients with osteoarthritis. In terms of human-interaction parameters, results show that a LRF sensor can correctly describe the trajectory and velocity of the user in relation to the walker. However, just the wearable sensors can characterize changes in direction. These results will be further used in the development of a robotic control that intends to detect the user's intention through LRF and inertial sensors, and respond accordingly.","PeriodicalId":167011,"journal":{"name":"International Congress on Neurotechnology, Electronics and Informatics","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116456473","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: A systematic literature search up to May 2013 was conducted in one citation index, the Web of Knowledge, and in two individual databases: PubMed and Scopus, for publications that utilized error augmented feedback as practice modality in robotic rehabilitation of the upper limb. Results: The systematic search returned 12 studies that utilized error augmented feedback in trials to unimpaired and impaired individuals suffering from stroke, multiple sclerosis and primary dystonia. One additional study utilizing viscous force fields was included as the authors paid special merit to the effects of the field in directions where the error was amplified. In the studies that met the inclusion criteria two different types of error augmented feedback was used that is, haptic and visual feedback which were used either separately as rehabilitation modalities or in conjunction with each other. All studies but one report positive outcome regardless of the type(s) of feedback utilized. Conclusions: Error augmentation in upper limb robotic rehabilitation is a relatively new area of study, counting almost nine years after the first relevant publication and rather understudied. Error augmentation in upper limb robotic rehabilitation should be further researched in more practice-intensive studies and with larger trial groups. The potential of error augmented upper limb rehabilitation should also be explored with conditions other than the ones described in this review.","PeriodicalId":167011,"journal":{"name":"International Congress on Neurotechnology, Electronics and Informatics","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131246627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, exercises are usually not customizable for the patients, further increasing their disengagement with the treatment. The outcome is then a boring session day after day. This is more pronounced when the patient is a child. However, the execution of these repetitive movements is really needed, as it alters the properties of our neurons, including their pattern of connectivity. Correctly driven, this process finally allows to improve the neural functionality. The question is then: how can we improve the motivation and immersion of the patients into the therapy? We could try to convert the boring therapy into a funny one. This will help to the patients, but also to the practitioner. For this end, computer-assisted technologies have been extensively employed in the last years. Within this research field, this paper proposes to engage the child to the therapy by immersing her into an augmented reality scenario, where it will play several serious games. The adherence to the session will be further increased by incorporating a social robot as a playmate. This robot will be a personal trainer, that will perform the session in the real world with the patient. Additionally, the robot will be able to record the data for each session. This data could be subsequently used by the rehabilitation specialists for monitoring and/or adapting the therapy to the patient’s needs.","PeriodicalId":167011,"journal":{"name":"International Congress on Neurotechnology, Electronics and Informatics","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125194534","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
