  • For the determination of instantaneous centre of rotation in the mandibular movement, the habitual opening path was recorded on the sagittal tracing plate by a Gnathorecorder attached on the lower anterior teeth which was designed for this study. The opening path was demonstrated mathematically and the instantaneous centre of rotation in the opening path were calculated and plotted by computer programs, and then a computer graphic movement of the mandible was obtained according to the opening path. The hinge path of posterior border movement was graphied by the Gnathorecorder as well and demonstated mathematically. This hinge path was compared with the same obtained by Visitrainer to prove a reliability of the Gnathorecorder. The results obtained from this study were as follows. 1. The habitual opening path and hinge path obtained from the Gnathorecorder movement were expressed mathematically as follows: $y=0.11x^2-0.66x+3.09$ (equation of opening path), $y=0.04x^2+0.21x+3.71$ (equation of hinge path), and a kinematic hinge axis was not shown in the equation of kings path. 2. The early habitual opening movement of the mandible demonstrated almost a straight opening path or an arc motion with the larger radius and it's centre of rotation moved parallelly in the more rear and lower position than a kinematic hinge axis. 3. Instantaneous centre of rotation occured along with the translation of the condyle, and mandible was rotated around an axis in the close to the maximum opening and then moved toward the forward and upward position. 4. There were some similarities between the articular eminence and the movement pattern of a special point which was the kinematic hinge axis.

  • This study was done to determine a new qualitative base for educating and evaluating patients by comparing a 60 or over age group with a 20-30 age group when rising from supine to erect stance. Sixty normal adults were devided into 60 or over and 20-30 aged groups. Each persons was asked to standing from the supine position. This process was recorded by two video cameras. The results was classified into the three existing movement categories. And then they were analyzed by percent rate. The results showed that each group had its own different and special characteristics. This means that physical therapists need to select the best motor patterns according to age in teaching functional tasks such as rising from supine to erect stance.

  • In this paper, we present visual sensing techniques that can be used to teach a robot using a laser pointer. The light spot of an off-the-shelf laser pointer is detected and its movement is tracked on consecutive images of a camera. The three-dimensional position of the spot is calculated using stereo cameras. The light spot on the image is detected based on its color, brightness, and shape. The detection results in a binary image, and morphological processing steps are performed on the image to refine the detection. The movement of the laser spot is measured using two methods. The first is a simple method of specifying the region of interest (ROI) centered at the current location of the light spot and finding the spot within the ROI on the next image. It is assumed that the movement of the spot is not large on two consecutive images. The second method is using a Kalman filter, which has been widely employed in trajectory estimation problems. In our simulation study of various cases, Kalman filtering shows better results mostly. However, there is a problem of fitting the system model of the filter to the pattern of the spot movement.

  • The surface change of upperarm and shoulder blade area are caused by the extensive upper limb movement, thus it is necessary to measure the amount of change for constructing the clothing. Moire photography was taken after plastic casters of upperarm and shoulder blade area was prepared. 1. For the shoulder blade area, subjects showed the same change of surface area for the various limb positions, wherease, for the upperarm only at the $0^{\circ}\;and\;180^{\circ}$ limb position, same change was observed. 2. As the movement of the upperarm was increased, surface area of axillary part was increased and that of shoulder part was decreased. 3. To make a bodice pattern, the minimum size of the back with the ease were $\frac{B}{4}$+3.13 cm R for normal wear and $\frac{B}{4}$+5.75 cm for active wear. 4. As the movement of the arm was increased, the cross section for the upperarm were changed to elliptical shape. 5. For each horizontal basic line, there was a positive correlation between the amount of change of shoulder blad area and that of upperarm area.

  • Recently, the development of practical wearable robot interfaces has resulted in the emergence of wearable robots such as arm prosthetics or lower-limb exoskeletons. In this paper, we propose a novel method of wrist movement intention estimation based on a regression technique using electromyography of human bio-signals. In daily life, changes in user arm position changes cause decreases in performance by modulating EMG signals. Therefore, we propose an estimation method for robust wrist movement intention for arm position changes, combining several movement intention models based on the regression technique trained by different arm positions. In our experimental results, our method estimates wrist movement intention more accurately than previous methods.
