A tactile handle for cane use monitoring
Trujillo-León, Andrés; Ady, Ragou; Vidal-Verdú, Fernando; Bachta, Wael (IEEE, 2015)Assistive ambulatory devices are used for gait rehabilitation and assistance. In both cases, their benefit is greater when they are used properly. As for canes, embedded sensors can be used for monitoring purposes. In this ... -
Assistive handlebar based on tactile sensors: control inputs and human factors
Trujillo-León, Andrés; Bachta, Wael; Castellanos-Ramos, Julián; Vidal-Verdú, Fernando (Sensors, MDPI, 2018)Tactile sensors can be used to build human-machine interfaces, for instance in isometric joysticks or handlebars. When used as input sensor device for control, questions arise related to the contact with the human, which ... -
Evaluation of tactile sensors as an alternative to force sensors in an assistive haptic handlebar
Trujillo-León, Andrés; Bachta, Wael; Vidal-Verdú, Fernando (IEEE, 2017)This paper shows experimental results that confirm that tactile sensors are appropriate to provide information about the caregiver intention in an assistive haptic handlebar. Preliminary tests have been performed to identify ... -
Haptic interface based on tactile sensors for assistive devices
Trujillo-León, Andrés (UMA Editorial, 2018-02)Los países desarrollados deben hacer frente al creciente envejecimiento de su población. Un proceso de envejecimiento adecuado requiere capacidad funcional en las actividades del día a día. Así, las tecnologías de asistencia ... -
Tactile Sensor-Based Steering as a Substitute of the Attendant Joystick in Powered Wheelchairs
Trujillo-León, Andrés; Bachta, Wael; Vidal-Verdú, Fernando (IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, IEEE, 2018)Attendant joysticks of powered wheelchairs are devices oriented to help caregivers. Diseases and disabilities such as dementia, spinal cord injuries or blindness make the user unable to drive the chair by his or her own. ...
