However, it suffers from drastically varying channel loss, which limits its energy efficiency in practical scenarios. This paper presents a power-driven body-channel transceiver (TRX), whose power consumption can be adaptively tuned against varying channel loss. An out-band programmable gain amplifier (PGA) is proposed to save power and generate a quasi-linear correlation between PGA gain and power. By using the quasi-linear gain-power relationship, we propose an auto gain/power control technique to realize on-demand power consumption. In addition, a differential balanced transmitter is designed to eliminate base-band harmonics in on-off keying modulation and increase the power delivered by the transmitter (TX). The TX and receiver (RX) of the prototype were integrated into 1 chip and fabricated in a 55-nm complementary metal oxide semiconductor process. During the measurement, 2 chips were configured as TX and RX, respectively. Both the TX and the RX were wearable, powered by lithium batteries, and attached to the subject's hands. The prototype achieved a 5.25-Mbps data rate with 16-pJ/bit energy efficiency at a 1.5-m straight-line ground path distance.

Because motions originate from forces, it is beneficial to estimate dynamic information, such as the ground reaction force (GRF), in addition to kinematic information for advanced motion prediction. In this study, we proposed a method to estimate GRF and ground reaction moment (GRM) from electromyography (EMG) in combination with and without an inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensor using a machine learning technique. A long short-term memory network, which is suitable for processing long time-span data, was constructed with EMG and IMU as input data to estimate GRF during posture control and stepping motion. The results demonstrate that the proposed method can provide the GRF estimation with a root mean square error (RMSE) of 8.22 ± 0.97% (mean ± SE) for the posture control motion and 11.17 ± 2.16% (mean ± SE) for the stepping motion. We could confirm that EMG input is essential especially when we need to predict both GRF and GRM with limited numbers of sensors attached under knees. In addition, we developed a GRF visualization system integrated with ongoing motion in a Unity environment.

Shared control is an essential form of combining human and robot agents in a common task, but still faces a lack of freedom for the human agent. This paper proposes a Centroidal Voronoi Tessellation (CVT)-based road segmentation approach for brain-controlled robot navigation by means of asynchronous BCI. An electromyogram-based asynchronous mechanism is introduced into the BCI system for self-paced control. A novel CVT-based road segmentation method is provided to generate optional navigation goals in the road area for arbitrary goal selection. An event-related potential of the BCI is designed for target selection to communicate with the robot. The robot has an autonomous navigation function to reach the human selected goals. A comparison experiment in the single-step control pattern is executed to verify the effectiveness of the CVT-based asynchronous (CVT-A) BCI system. Eight subjects participated in the experiment, and they were instructed to control the robot to navigate toward a destination with obstacle avoidance tasks. The results show that the CVT-A BCI system can shorten the task duration, decrease the command times, and optimize navigation path, compared with the single-step pattern. Moreover, this shared control mechanism of the CVT-A BCI system contributes to the promotion of human and robot agent integration control in unstructured environments.</p>","PeriodicalId":72764,"journal":{"name":"Cyborg and bionic systems (Washington, D.C.)","volume":"4 ","pages":"0024"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10202181/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9871521","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The motion capture of dual hands plays an important role in the teleoperation. The motion information of dual hands can be captured through the hand detection, localization, and pose estimation and mapped to the bionic bimanual robots to realize the teleoperation. However, although the motion capture technology has achieved great achievements in recent years, visual dual-hand motion capture is still a great challenge. So, this work proposed a dual-hand detection method and a 3-dimensional (3D) hand pose estimation method based on body and hand biological inspiration to achieve convenient and accurate monocular dual-hand motion capture and bionic bimanual robot teleoperation. First, a dual-hand detection method based on body structure constraints is proposed, which uses a parallel structure to combine hand and body relationship features. Second, a 3D hand pose estimation method with bone-constraint loss from single RGB images is proposed. Then, a bionic bimanual robot teleoperation method is designed by using the proposed hand detection and pose estimation methods. Experiment results on public hand datasets show that the performances of the proposed hand detection and 3D hand pose estimation outperform state-of-the-art methods.

The viscoelasticity of biological fluid is constantly ignored for simplicity especially when the fluid is substantially diluted and contains rather complex components. However, even the fluid's ultraweak viscoelasticity actually affects the microparticle migration and may bring a completely different behavior compared with the Newtonian fluids. As a result, a robust and easy operated on-chip viscoelasticity sensor is potential and desired in many research and industrial fields, including assay sample preparation, clinical diagnostics, and on-chip sensor. In this work, we employed stable non-Newtonian fluid-polyethylene oxide (PEO) solutions with various concentrations to investigate and calibrate effects of the weak fluidic viscoelasticity on microparticle behaviors in a double-layered microfluidic channel. An analogy-based database of fluidic patterns for viscoelasticity sensing and relaxation time measurement was established. Then, we tested different biological fluids including blood plasma and fetal bovine serum and proved that they exhibited similar viscoelasticity effects to the PEO solutions with the corresponding concentration, which reached a good agreement with available results by references.
