This paper presents a design and construction of IIR multiple notch filter by modifying the pole-zero placement with least square estimation to find the appropriate gain and pole positions for the filter within a unit circle in z-plane. The appropriated gain and pole position will render the controllable unit gain of filter magnitude. Algorithm design and system simulation are performed on MATLAB while the actual implementation is done on the TMS320C31 digital signal processing board.

In this paper, we propose a simple and relative electrode contact monitoring method. By exploiting the power line interference, which is regarded as one of the worst noise sources for bio-potential measurement, the relative difference in electrode impedance can be measured without a current or voltage source. Substantial benefits, including no extra circuit components, no degradation of the body potential driving circuit, and no electrical safety problem, can be achieved using this method. Furthermore, this method can be applied to multi-channel isolated bio-potential measurement systems and home health care devices under a steady measuring environment.

A noncontact sensor field is an innovative device that can detect, measure, or monitor physical properties or conditions without direct physical contact with the subject or object under examination. These sensors use a variety of methods, including electromagnetic, optical, and acoustic technique, to collect information about the target without physical interaction. Noncontact sensors find wide-ranging applications in various fields such as manufacturing, robotics, automobiles, security, environmental monitoring, space industry, agriculture, and entertainment. In particular, they are used in the medical field, where they provide continuous monitoring of patient conditions and offer opportunities in rehabilitation medicine. This article introduces the potential of noncontact sensors in the field of rehabilitation medicine.

Background: Recently, there have been various developments in medical service robots (MSRs). However, few studies have examined the perceptions of those who use it. The purpose of this study is to identify user perceptions of MSRs. Methods: We conducted a survey of 320 patients, doctors, and nurses. The contents of the survey were organized as follows: external appearances, perceptions, expected utilization, possible safety accidents, and awareness of their responsibilities. Statistical analyses were performed using t-test, chi-square test, and analysis of variance. Results: The most preferred appearance was the animal type, with a screen. The overall average score of positive questions was 3.64±0.98 of 5 points and that of negative questions was 3.24±0.99. Thus, the results revealed that the participants had positive perceptions of MSR. The overall average of all expected utilization was 4.05±0.84. The most expected utilization was to guide hospital facilities. The most worrisome accident was exposure to personal information. Moreover, participants thought that the overall responsibility of the robot user (hospital) was greater than that of the robot manufacturer in the case of safety accidents. Conclusion: The perceptions of MSRs used in hospital wards were positive, and the overall expected utilization was high. It is necessary to recognize safety accidents for such robots, and sufficient attention is required when developing and manufacturing robots.

The proportion of the aged people is rapidly increasing toward the 21st century. This change will cause serious problems in the area of daily activities, preservation of health, medical care and physical rehabilitatiion for the aged. for the solution of these problems this paper suggest a new type of robot for the aged man, called a silver robot. This paper presents a concept of silver robot and it's feasibility study.

The status of near future in IT era is described. Aging, Woman power, Home alone, Glovalization and Rapid growth of technology are characterised in these category. Specialy nano bio technology and Robotics would be contributed in progress of medical sector. It could assist anti-aging. The efficiency of computer rapidly grow by artificial intelligence. Dr.Toffler who is the futurist said that the key word passing through the 21st century as the definition of a human being might be changed.

Recently computer graphic technology has achieved remarkable development. Applications of this technology to various fields are expected. In this study, one application of computer graphics to the medical field is shown. We developed a rehabilitation system of hand manipulation using virtual reality aiming to offer enjoyable rehabilitation training to physically handicapped people with upper limb disabilities. This rehabilitation system generates training environments for upper limbs, such as moving balls in virtual space of computer. And by using data glove as a sophisticated input device, a user can manipulate objects in virtual space by his hand. By using this rehabilitation system, a user can have rehabilitation training under various conditions without feeling tedious.

Recently, a need of non-industrial robot, such as service, medical, entertainment and house-keeping robot, has been increased. Therefore, the capability of robot which can do intelligent behavior like interaction with men and its environment become more prominent than the capability of executing simple repetitive task. To implement an intelligent robot which provides intelligent behavior, an effective system architecture including perception, learning, reasoning and action part is necessary. Control architectures for intelligent robot can be divided into two different classes. One is deliberative type controller which is applicate to high level intelligence like environment ...

This paper describes a feature extraction in digitized chest X-ray image and CT head Image. There are Extraction, Thresholding, Region G rowing, Split-Merge and Relaxation in feature extraction technique. In this study, Region Growing System was realized and Fuzzy Set Theory was applied in order to extract the vague region which the conventional method has difficulties in extracting. The performance of proposed algorithm was proved by being applied to chest X-ray image and CT head image.
