Measurement of conformability and adhesion energy of polymeric ultrathin film to skin model

Junki Sugano, Toshinori Fujie, Hiroyasu Iwata, Eiji Iwase

Japanese Journal of Applied Physics 57 ( 6 ) 2018.06 [Refereed]

　View Summary

We measured the conformability and adhesion energy of a polymeric ultrathin film "nanosheet" with hundreds of nanometer thickness to a skin model with epidermal depressions. To compare the confirmability of the nanosheets with different thicknesses and/or under different attaching conditions, we proposed a measurement method using skin models with the same surface profile and defined the surface strain ϵS as the quantified value of the conformability. Then, we measured the adhesion energy of the nanosheet at each conformability through a vertical tensile test. Experimental results indicate that the adhesion energy does not depend on the liquid used in wetting the nanosheet before attaching to the skin model and increases monotonously as the surface strain ϵS increases.

Haptic-based perception-empathy biofeedback system for balance rehabilitation in patients with chronic stroke: Concepts and initial feasibility study

Kazuhiro Yasuda, Kenta Saichi, Naomi Kaibuki, Hiroaki Harashima, Hiroyasu Iwata

Gait and Posture 62 ( no.62 ) 484 - 489 2018.05 [Refereed]

　View Summary

Background: Most individuals have sensory disturbances post stroke, and these deficits contribute to post-stroke balance impairment. The haptic-based biofeedback (BF) system appears to be one of the promising tools for balance rehabilitation in patients with stroke, and the BF system can increase the objectivity of feedback and encouragement than that provided by a therapist. Research question: Studies in skill science indicated that feedback or encouragement from a coach or trainer enhances motor learning effect. Nevertheless, the optimal BF system (or its concept) which would refine the interpersonal feedback between patients and therapist has not been proposed. Thus, the purpose of this study was to propose a haptic-based perception-empathy BF system which provides information regarding the patient's center-of-foot pressure (CoP) pattern to the patient and the physical therapist to enhance the motor learning effect and validate the feasibility of this balance-training regimen in patients with chronic stroke. Methods: This study used a pre-post design without control group. Nine chronic stroke patients (mean age: 64.4 ± 9.2 years) received a balance-training regimen using this BF system twice a week for 4 weeks. Testing comprised quantitative measures (i.e., CoP) and clinical balance scale (Berg Balance Scale, BBS
Functional Reach Test, FRT
and Timed-Up and Go test, TUG). Results and significance: Post training, patients demonstrated marginally reduced postural spatial variability (i.e., 95% confidence elliptical area), and clinical balance performance significantly improved at post-training. Although the changes in FRT and TUG exceeded the minimal detectable change (MDC), changes in BBS did not reach clinical significance (i.e., smaller than MDC). These results may provide initial knowledge (i.e., beneficial effects, utility and its limitation) of the proposed BF system in designing effective motor learning strategies for stroke rehabilitation. More studies are required addressing limitations due to research design and training method for future clinical use.

Differing effects of an immersive virtual reality programme on unilateral spatial neglect on activities of daily living

Kazuhiro Yasuda, Daisuke Muroi, Mizuki Hirano, Kenta Saichi, Hiroyasu Iwata

BMJ Case Reports 2018 2018 [Refereed]

　View Summary

In clinical practice, therapists often encounter cases of unilateral spatial neglect (USN) observed in far and near space. In this case report, immersive virtual reality (VR) technology was adopted as a therapy tool in a patient with stroke with severe near and far space neglect. Neuropsychological tests in near and far space as well as the Catherine Bergego Scale (CBS), as an index of neglect in daily living, were measured preintervention and postintervention. Improvement of neuropsychological tests, particularly in far space, was clearly demonstrated postintervention. However, CBS score did not change postintervention. This may be because the patient unsuccessfully translated these visual search task skills used in far space to activities of daily living. Our findings suggest the potential use of immersive VR technology in patients with USN and highlight the VR programme's limited ability to fully recover a patient's disability in natural settings.

A pre-offering view system for teleoperators of heavy machines to acquire cognitive maps

Ryuya Sato, Mitsuhiro Kamezaki, Satoshi Niuchi, Shigeki Sugano, Hiroyasu Iwata

SSRR 2017 - 15th IEEE International Symposium on Safety, Security and Rescue Robotics, Conference 61 - 66 2017.10 [Refereed]

　View Summary

In teleoperation of heavy machines, work efficiency will be 50% lower than manned operation because operators cannot obtain effective information about work sites due to the limitation of current monitoring systems. Operators would have opportunities to obtain such information before work (about a week required to introduce teleoperation systems) and during work. As a fundamental study to support operator's spatial cognition, we developed views to provide spatial information of work sites before work. Humans have cognitive maps which are created based on knowledge acquired from survey and route perspectives. To make operators acquire the above two knowledge, we provide a bird's-eye view that can be changed by operators to acquire a knowledge from survey perspective, and a view from operator's viewpoint that can be changed by operator's intention to acquire a knowledge from route perspective. To evaluate two pre-offering views, we preformed experiments using a virtual reality simulator. The results indicated that a view to acquire a knowledge from survey perspective could help operators plan totally and one to acquire a knowledge from route perspective could help operators plan locally, and could increase work efficiency.

Automatic fetal body and amniotic fluid segmentation from fetal ultrasound images by encoder-decoder network with inner layers

Yan Li, Rong Xu, Jun Ohya, Hiroyasu Iwata

Proceedings of the Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, EMBS 1485 - 1488 2017.09 [Refereed]

　View Summary

This paper explores the effectiveness of applying a deep learning based method to segment the amniotic fluid and fetal tissues in fetal ultrasound (US) images. The deeply learned model firstly encodes the input image into down scaled feature maps by convolution and pooling structures, then up-scale the feature maps to confidence maps by corresponded un-pooling and convolution layers. Additional convolution layers with 1×1 sized kernels are adopted to enhance the feature representations, which could be used to further improve the discriminative learning of our model. We effectively update the weights of the network by fine-tuning on part of the layers from a pre-trained model. By conducting experiments using clinical data, the feasibility of our proposed approach is compared and discussed. The result proves that this work achieves satisfied results for segmentation of specific anatomical structures from US images.

Condition-Based Less-Error Data Selection for Robust and Accurate Mass Measurement in Large-Scale Hydraulic Manipulators

Mitsuhiro Kamezaki, Hiroyasu Iwata, Shigeki Sugano

IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON INSTRUMENTATION AND MEASUREMENT 66 ( 7 ) 1820 - 1830 2017.07 [Refereed]

　View Summary

This paper proposes a practical scheme for measuring the mass of an object grasped by the end-effector of a large-scale hydraulic manipulator. Such a measurement system requires high accuracy and robustness considering the nonlinearity and uncertainty in hydraulic pressure-based force measurement during rigorous outdoor work. It is thus difficult to precisely model system behaviors and completely remove error force components (white-box modeling) under such conditions, so our scheme adopts a less-error data selection approach to relatively improving the accuracy and reliability of the measurand (gray-box modeling). It first removes dominant error forces, i.e., gravity and dynamic friction forces, then defines the on-load state by evaluating measurement conditions to omit data in indeterminate conditions, then extracts data during the object-grasp state identified by a grasp motion model and removes high-frequency components by a simple low-pass filter, and finally integrates data from multiple sensors using the posture-based priority and averages all selected data. Evaluation experiments were conducted using an instrumented hydraulic arm. Results indicate that our scheme can precisely measures the mass of the grasped object under various detection conditions with fewer errors.

　View Summary

We fabricated free-standing, flexible and physically adhesive ultrathin elastomeric films (nanosheets) for application as electronic substrates and packaging films. In this work, electronic elements such as a chip resistor and a chip LED were sandwiched between elastomeric nanosheets of less than 1 mu m thickness to obtain electrical conduction in silver lines that were inkjet-printed on the nanosheet. This sandwich-fixation process contributed to the development of an electronic device showing conformable adhesion and operation on the skin surface.

SOMATOSENSORY AND MOTOR RESEARCH 34 ( 2 ) 65 - 71 2017 [Refereed]

　View Summary

Background: Impaired balance in patients with hemiparesis caused by stroke is frequently related to deficits in the central integration of afferent inputs, and traditional rehabilitation reinforces excessive visual reliance by focusing on visual compensation.Objective: The present study investigated whether a balance task involving a haptic biofeedback (BF) system, which provided supplementary vibrotactile sensory cues associated with center-of-foot-pressure displacement, improved postural control in patients with stroke.Methods: Seventeen stroke patients were assigned to two groups: the Vibrotactile BF and Control groups. During the balance task (i.e., standing on a foam mat), participants in the Vibrotactile BF group tried to stabilize their postural sway while wearing the BF system around the pelvic girdle. In the Control group, participants performed an identical postural task without the BF system.Results: Pre- and post-test measurements of postural control using a force plate revealed that the stability of bipedal posture in the Vibrotactile BF group was markedly improved compared with that in the Control group.Conclusions: A balance task involving a vibrotactile BF system improved postural stability in patients with stroke immediately. This confirms the potential of a haptic-based BF system for balance training, both in routine clinical practice and in everyday life.

Methods of control for minimizing extra-fine needle deflection with a combination of vibration and rotation in the lower abdomen

Ryosuke Tsumura, Hiroyasu Iwata

Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering 12 ( 3 ) 2017 [Refereed]

　View Summary

Cancer vaccine therapy is a novel treatment method which uses an extra-fine (0.53 mm in diameter (25 G)) needle to deliver a tumor-specific vaccine directly into a tumor. This method is expected to deliver an effective treatment with few side effects. However, the procedure is very difficult to perform because of needle deflection. We intend to develop a needle insertion robot to combat this deflection and deliver the vaccine successfully. The key features of the robot were developed to minimize needle tip deflection while traversing complex tissues which is composed of various tissues. In this paper, as targeted to lower abdomen, we propose a control method for minimizing needle tip deflection during insertion through vibration and axial rotation. The effectiveness of the proposed method was evaluated in artificial and biomaterial tissues found in the lower abdomen (muscle, bowel, and skin). Results demonstrated that the effectiveness of vibration and rotation was changed depending on the kind of the tissues. The rotation was effective to the thick tissues (muscle and skin) and the vibration was effective to membranous tissues (bowel). Based on the results, our method used vibration and rotation when the needle is inserted into the skin and muscle and only vibration when traversing through soft tissue such as the bowel. In conclusion, the proposed method can minimize needle tip deflection robustly in a lower abdomen phantom.

Validation of an immersive virtual reality system for training near and far space neglect in individuals with stroke: a pilot study

Kazuhiro Yasuda, Daisuke Muroi, Masahiro Ohira, Hiroyasu Iwata

TOPICS IN STROKE REHABILITATION 24 ( 7 ) 533 - 538 2017 [Refereed]

　View Summary

Background: Unilateral spatial neglect (USN) is defined as impaired ability to attend and see on one side, and when present, it interferes seriously with daily life. These symptoms can exist for near and far spaces combined or independently, and it is important to provide effective intervention for near and far space neglect.
Objective: The purpose of this pilot study was to propose an immersive virtual reality (VR) rehabilitation program using a head-mounted display that is able to train both near and far space neglect, and to validate the immediate effect of the VR program in both near and far space neglect.
Methods: Ten USN patients underwent the VR program with a pre-post design and no control. In the virtual environment, we developed visual searching and reaching tasks using an immersive VR system. Behavioral inattention test (BIT) scores obtained pre- and immediate post-VR program were compared.
Results: BIT scores obtained pre-and post-VR program revealed that far space neglect but not near space neglect improved promptly after the VR program. This effect for far space neglect was observed in the cancelation task, but not in the line bisection task.
Conclusions: Positive effects of the immersive VR program for far space neglect are suggested by the results of the present pilot study. However, further studies with rigorous designs are needed to validate its clinical effectiveness.

2016 38TH ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE OF THE IEEE ENGINEERING IN MEDICINE AND BIOLOGY SOCIETY (EMBC) no.1754 6158 - 6161 2016 [Refereed]

　View Summary

Recent studies have shown that haptic feedback on the body, either at or away from the desired gait parameter to be changed, can improve gait performance. Here we introduced a haptic-based biofeedback device to supplement the foot pressure information of a paretic foot with a wearable vibrotactile biofeedback device attached to the back. This system provides information regarding a patient's foot pressure pattern to the patient and physical therapist. Therefore, the biofeedback system can share information regarding abnormal gait patterns between patients and therapists. This pilot study showed that the device immediately improved the stride length during walking, but not walking speed. Furthermore, subjective reports indicated that synchronizing foot pressure pattern information between the patient and therapist induced higher patient motivation for gait rehabilitation.

2010 ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE OF THE IEEE ENGINEERING IN MEDICINE AND BIOLOGY SOCIETY (EMBC) 487 - 490 2010

　View Summary

The purpose of this report is to propose portable and attachable tele-echography robot system: FASTele. Focused assessment with sonography for trauma (FAST) is important for patients who have shock by internal bleeding. However, the patient has little time, and transportation to a hospital may take too long. A system which enables FAST more quickly is required. Therefore, we aim to develop a tele-echography (FAST) robot system that can be used by a paramedic easily for shock patient in ambulance or at injury scene. To develop the system, portability and usability (for paramedic) are significant issues. We developed a tele-echography robot system which has 4-DOF. The robot is attached to each roughly FAST areas of patient body (body-based set up) and remotely fine-tuned position by a specialist in a hospital. The robot can control the posture of probe by curvature rails. The mechanism that maintains passively the contact force between the probe and patient's body surface by using springs enables the robot small and lightweight. Feasibility experiments of FAST are reported.

IEEE/RSJ 2010 INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INTELLIGENT ROBOTS AND SYSTEMS (IROS 2010) paper no. TuBT2.5 69 - 74 2010

　View Summary

Human-symbiotic humanoid robots that can perform tasks dexterously using their hands are needed in our homes, welfare facilities, and other places as the average age of the population increases. To improve the task performance of human-symbiotic humanoid robots, a motion-planning method with active body-environment contact was developed. Taking into account the positive and negative effect of mechanical passive elements implemented in joints, this motion-planning method can enables the hand-arm system to establish the active BE contact at the appropriate body-site and to select the joints that perform the movement for executing the given task. Control algorithms for the tool operation, namely, writing with a pen, were also constructed. The motion-planning method was validated through actual experiments on a prototype human-symbiotic humanoid robot.
A methodology for setting grasping force for picking up an object with unknown weight, friction, and stiffness

2010 10th IEEE-RAS International Conference on Humanoid Robots, Humanoids 2010 288 - 293 2010

　View Summary

A methodology for setting the reference value of a grasping force when a multi-finger robotic hand grasps and lifts up an object without knowing its characteristic weight, coefficient of static friction, and stiffness was devised. The grasping force must be set to avoid dropping or deforming the object. To fulfill this requirement, the methodology measures object characteristics by detecting the moment of deformation or slipping according to the deflection of a mechanical passive element. The reference value of grasping force is set according to an upper limit to avoid crushing and a lower limit for lifting up the object calculated from the object's above-mentioned characteristics. The degree of the accuracy of object characteristic measurements was evaluated through experiments using an actual human-mimetic hand-arm system. Finally we validated that the system can pick up objects with the grasping force set by our methodology. ©2010 IEEE.

　View Summary

In this paper, we describe the design method of an anthropomorphic 4-DOF tactile interaction manipulator with mechanically passive joints giving robots to accomplish high performance force-following and tactile-based contact state recognition despite physical interference and contact with humans occurring at links and at joints. The shape and appearance of this manipulator was based on statistical data on the Japanese male physique to allow for human-like contact interaction recognition. Joint are passively compliant, consisting of a mechanical leaf spring and rotary damper giving the manipulator high passivity. Cylindrical or spherical surfaces of the body including the elbow and wrist are overlaid with distributed tactile sensors acquiring accurate contact information. Evaluation experiments indicate that the manipulator provides high performance of force-following and tactile stimulation measurement, during physical interference and contact with humans and confirmed its effectiveness in improving human/robot symbiosis.

　View Summary

In this paper, we herein describe force detectable surface covers for humanoid robots to realize naturally physical interaction with humans. The covers can detect various tactile and force information, such as accurate external force vector and contact positions, from a widely range of the robot body surface. First a basic surface cover structure composed of a force-torque sensor and several touch sensors is proposed. Next, we present a design method to implement such a cover structure onto dual arms of an actual humanoid robot. Finally, from basic experiments for verifying the characteristics of the proposed force-detectable surface cover systems, it was confirmed that high measurement accuracy of a contact position and force vector is accomplished. In addition, from an application experiment, where some humans actually occur physical interference with an actual humanoid robot overlaid with the covers, it was confirmed that the capability of the covers' sensing even several contacts on several parts of robots' body is effective for realizing high level human-robot symbiosis.

　View Summary

In this paper. Ire herein describe the control methods used for a humanoid's compliant behavior following human force and motions while fulfilling given tasks under various constraint conditions during physical Interference (PIF) with a human. PIF is a form of physical interaction viewed from the robots point of view.
in cases of PIF occurrence, PIF Adapting Behaviors for attenuating physical influences caused by PIF on both a human body and a robots' task are required First a base control method for compliantly following PIF by coordinating multiple joints of the arms and trunk is presented By utilizing this method PIF force produced on several areas of the robot's entire body is efficiently reduced Next, the control methods for fulfilling git en tasks, as well as following PIF at the same time, are proposed rn these methods, the idea is incorporated that if the utilization of redundancy is needed for task fulfillment or constraint conditions and attributes of the given task are changed, the role of each joint needs to change as well. Adapting to the diversity of task attributes and also the necessity of utilizing redundancy, the proposed control methods enable the robots to realize both force following and task fulfillment at the same time. Finally from the evaluation of the experiments, it vas confirmed that the proposed methods realize a humanoid's capability of compliantly adapting to human motions while fulfilling tasks by efficiently utilizing redundancy.

A Framework of State Identification for Operational Support based on Task-Phase and Attentional-Condition Identification

Mitsuhiro Kamezaki, Hiroyasu Iwata, Shigeki Sugano

2010 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION (ICRA) 1267 - 1272 2010 [Refereed]

　View Summary

This paper proposes a state identification framework to support the complicated dual-arm operations in construction work. The operational support in construction machinery filed requires the compatibility with different types of support and the commonality among various operator skill levels. The proposed framework is therefore organized into two functions: real-time task phase identification and time-series attentional condition identification. The task phase is defined by utilizing the joint load applied according to the environment constraint condition. The attentional condition is defined as one of the internal work-state condition classified by the necessity level of operational support, and is dependent on the vectorial or time-series date selected by the identified task phase. Experiments are conducted using the hydraulic dual arm system to perform transporting and removing tasks. Results show that the number of error contacts, internal force applied, and mental workload is decreased without time-consumption increase. The result confirmed that the proposed framework greatly contribute to improving each operator's work performance.

2010 IEEE International Conference on Mechatronics and Automation, ICMA 2010 1270 - 1275 2010 [Refereed]

　View Summary

This paper reports a wearable tele-echography robot that a bystander could attach to a patient at injury scene. Quick diagnosis and treatment are important for patients who have shock by internal bleeding. Therefore, focused assessment with sonography for trauma (FAST), which is a simple and quick diagnostic method, was developed as a first lifesaving step in a hospital. However, a shock patient has little time, and transportation to a hospital may take too long. Therefore, a system which enables FAST at injury scene by assistance of bystander is important. First, we constructed a medical treatment scenario from the victim's discovery to FAST and treatment at the injury scene. Then, we developed a remote-controlled FAST robot that a bystander could attach to a patient. This robot is attached to each roughly FAST areas of patient body by a bystander and remotely fine-tuned position by a doctor in a hospital. In this way, a bystander may not do an exact positioning. In addition, the robot has two springs to generate contact force between echo probe and patient body surface. This mechanism not only fit in patient body motion but also downsizing based on reducing the number of controlled axis. To confirm the effectiveness of the robot, we performed experiments with some examinees and doctors. We confirmed effectiveness of the mechanism and that a bystander could attach the robot to each roughly FAST areas of patient body. We also confirmed that a doctor could do FAST with the robot by remote-controlled on the roughly FAST areas in approximately three minutes. These results show that the robot would enable FAST at injury scene by assistance of bystander, and FAST would be faster than the time required transporting the patient to the hospital with the robot. This is effective in improving the survival rate for traumatic shock patients. © 2010 IEEE.

To develop the system, portability and usability (for paramedic) are significant issues. We developed a tele-echography robot system which has 4-DOF. The robot is attached to each roughly FAST areas of patient body (body-based set up) and remotely fine-tuned position by a specialist in a hospital. The robot can control the posture of probe by curvature rails. The mechanism that maintains passively the contact force between the probe and patient's body surface by using springs enables the robot small and lightweight. Feasibility experiments of FAST are reported.

IEEE/RSJ 2010 INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INTELLIGENT ROBOTS AND SYSTEMS (IROS 2010) paper no. TuBT2.5 69 - 74 2010 [Refereed]

　View Summary

Human-symbiotic humanoid robots that can perform tasks dexterously using their hands are needed in our homes, welfare facilities, and other places as the average age of the population increases. To improve the task performance of human-symbiotic humanoid robots, a motion-planning method with active body-environment contact was developed. Taking into account the positive and negative effect of mechanical passive elements implemented in joints, this motion-planning method can enables the hand-arm system to establish the active BE contact at the appropriate body-site and to select the joints that perform the movement for executing the given task. Control algorithms for the tool operation, namely, writing with a pen, were also constructed. The motion-planning method was validated through actual experiments on a prototype human-symbiotic humanoid robot.

2010 10th IEEE-RAS International Conference on Humanoid Robots, Humanoids 2010 288 - 293 2010 [Refereed]

　View Summary

A methodology for setting the reference value of a grasping force when a multi-finger robotic hand grasps and lifts up an object without knowing its characteristic weight, coefficient of static friction, and stiffness was devised. The grasping force must be set to avoid dropping or deforming the object. To fulfill this requirement, the methodology measures object characteristics by detecting the moment of deformation or slipping according to the deflection of a mechanical passive element. The reference value of grasping force is set according to an upper limit to avoid crushing and a lower limit for lifting up the object calculated from the object's above-mentioned characteristics. The degree of the accuracy of object characteristic measurements was evaluated through experiments using an actual human-mimetic hand-arm system. Finally we validated that the system can pick up objects with the grasping force set by our methodology. ©2010 IEEE.

A Framework of State Identification for Operational Support based on Task-Phase and Attentional-Condition Identification

Mitsuhiro Kamezaki, Hiroyasu Iwata, Shigeki Sugano

2010 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION (ICRA) 1267 - 1272 2010 [Refereed]

　View Summary

This paper proposes a state identification framework to support the complicated dual-arm operations in construction work. The operational support in construction machinery filed requires the compatibility with different types of support and the commonality among various operator skill levels. The proposed framework is therefore organized into two functions: real-time task phase identification and time-series attentional condition identification. The task phase is defined by utilizing the joint load applied according to the environment constraint condition. The attentional condition is defined as one of the internal work-state condition classified by the necessity level of operational support, and is dependent on the vectorial or time-series date selected by the identified task phase. Experiments are conducted using the hydraulic dual arm system to perform transporting and removing tasks. Results show that the number of error contacts, internal force applied, and mental workload is decreased without time-consumption increase. The result confirmed that the proposed framework greatly contribute to improving each operator's work performance.

　View Summary

This paper reports a wearable tele-echography robot that a bystander could attach to a patient at injury scene. Quick diagnosis and treatment are important for patients who have shock by internal bleeding. Therefore, focused assessment with sonography for trauma (FAST), which is a simple and quick diagnostic method, was developed as a first lifesaving step in a hospital. However, a shock patient has little time, and transportation to a hospital may take too long. Therefore, a system which enables FAST at injury scene by assistance of bystander is important. First, we constructed a medical treatment scenario from the victim's discovery to FAST and treatment at the injury scene. Then, we developed a remote-controlled FAST robot that a bystander could attach to a patient. This robot is attached to each roughly FAST areas of patient body by a bystander and remotely fine-tuned position by a doctor in a hospital. In this way, a bystander may not do an exact positioning. In addition, the robot has two springs to generate contact force between echo probe and patient body surface. This mechanism not only fit in patient body motion but also downsizing based on reducing the number of controlled axis. To confirm the effectiveness of the robot, we performed experiments with some examinees and doctors. We confirmed effectiveness of the mechanism and that a bystander could attach the robot to each roughly FAST areas of patient body. We also confirmed that a doctor could do FAST with the robot by remote-controlled on the roughly FAST areas in approximately three minutes. These results show that the robot would enable FAST at injury scene by assistance of bystander, and FAST would be faster than the time required transporting the patient to the hospital with the robot. This is effective in improving the survival rate for traumatic shock patients. © 2010 IEEE.

　View Summary

Intelligent functions that can autonomously identify the current work states and also provide informational or operational support to their operators are inevitably required for double-front construction machinery (DFCM), which has been developed for complicated tasks. In this study, which focuses on DFCM, we address the need for a new conceptual design of an operator support system. In particular, a state identification method strongly requires high reliability and robustness to address the complexity of the construction work environment and the variety of the operator's skill level. We, therefore, define primitive static states (PSS) that are determined using on-off information for the]ever inputs and manipulator loads for each part of the grapple and front. We develop an intelligent system that provides a reduction of operational gain to make precise work easier and an indication of an enlarged image of the end-effector from a different viewpoint to assist depth perception based on PSS identification, and evaluate it using our newly developed simulator. Our experimental results show that the operator support system improves the work performance, including decreasing the operational time for completing a task, reducing the mental workload on the operators and the number of error operations.

　View Summary

This paper reports a newly developed simulator for operation skill training in Double-Front Construction Machinery (DFCM) that allows novices to virtually experience tough operations repeatedly using DFCM under various conditions, including dangerous congestion. First, we selected several situations targeted where the DFCM needs to be used to provide a high level of operation skills: sorted dismantling for recycling and reusing resources, rescue and recovery work in disaster areas, and building construction. In addition, we developed an operation skill-training simulator that enables novice operators to repeatedly train with the high level of operation skills needed to easily and safely handle the DFCM in even more complicated works. This simulator system has two joysticks (set in front of a monitor) to dependently control the two fronts of the animated DFCM on the monitor. Several modes involving basic construction tasks are provided and the effects of improvement in operability achieved by the training simulator can be verified. Evaluation experiments indicated that repeated training using the simulator successfully decreased the operation time to complete a task and enhanced positioning accuracy in cooperative transportation with the two fronts. The results confirm the effectiveness of the developed simulator.

　View Summary

We describe a space-efficient visco-elastic mechanism design for a small lightweight flexible joint of a human-symbiotic robot arm. Human-symbiotic robots that can provide daily life support will be required in houses, offices, facilities, and other places. Since they will often make physical contact with humans, their arms should have mechanical flexible joints to absorb the contact force and follow the human's motion. Our design has two coaxial rotary elements: a torsion bar made from GUMMETAL and a rotary disk damper with the output hole at its center. These two elements are combined in parallel and coaxially, making our design highly space-efficient. This paper presents the specifications of the shear elastic characteristics of GUMMETAL measured in experiments using 1DOF (degree-of-freedom) test equipment. The results confirm that its shear elastic modulus is linear and has a small elastic hysteresis loop and our mechanism can provide the advantage for the robot servo control. Compared with the conventional design, our design can make a smaller lighter flexible joint.

Human-robot-contact-state identification based on tactile recognition

H Iwata, S Sugano

IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON INDUSTRIAL ELECTRONICS 52 ( 6 ) 1468 - 1477 2005.12 [Refereed]

　View Summary

In this paper, we propose a method for designing an identification system for human-robot contact states based on tactile recognition. The following ideas are incorporated: experimentation for human-robot contact, verbalization of contact states, extraction of characteristic parameters from acquired tactile information, quantification of the recipient's tactile recognition incorporating its redundancy (identification confusability among contact states), evaluation of the identification confusability with a new criterion, and identification of contact states based on the received tactile stimulation.
The proposed method allows a robot to quantify tactile recognition of a human (recipient) touched by other people (touch initiator), in which the verbal response by the recipient is matched with tactile stimulation acquired during physical contact utilizing a tactile interface. In addition, the method enables a robot that comes into contact with a human to identify contact states nearly similar to that of the recipient, based on the features of the received tactile stimulation. At this point, the reproduction of the identification confusability of the recipient's tactile recognition is also accomplished by using a neural network called modified counterpropagation (MCP). Once a tactile stimulation is induced on the robot body, the probability of corresponding contact states is calculated and outputted by the system, based on the degree of similarity of the characteristics between the newly received and previously stored tactile stimulation. Experimental results indicate that the constructed system allows a successful quantification, of the recipient's contact-state recognition incorporating the identification confusability and the accomplishment of a high level of accuracy in contact-state identification. These results confirm that the proposed method ' is useful for identifying human-robot contact states based on tactile recognition.

Experimental results indicate that the constructed system allows a successful quantification, of the recipient's contact-state recognition incorporating the identification confusability and the accomplishment of a high level of accuracy in contact-state identification. These results confirm that the proposed method ' is useful for identifying human-robot contact states based on tactile recognition.

　View Summary

In this paper, we describe the design method of an anthropomorphic 4-DOF tactile interaction manipulator with mechanically passive joints giving robots to accomplish high performance force-following and tactile-based contact state recognition despite physical interference and contact with humans occurring at links and at joints. The shape and appearance of this manipulator was based on statistical data on the Japanese male physique to allow for human-like contact interaction recognition. Joint are passively compliant, consisting of a mechanical leaf spring and rotary damper giving the manipulator high passivity. Cylindrical or spherical surfaces of the body including the elbow and wrist are overlaid with distributed tactile sensors acquiring accurate contact information. Evaluation experiments indicate that the manipulator provides high performance of force-following and tactile stimulation measurement, during physical interference and contact with humans and confirmed its effectiveness in improving human/robot symbiosis.

In this paper, we propose a method for designing an identification system of human-robot contact states based on tactile recognition. First, a method of quantifying tactile cognition of a human (receiver) touched by other people (toucher) using a neural network called MCP (Modified CounterPropagation) is presented, which matches the verbal response by the receiver with tactile stimulation detected during physical interference and contact utilizing tactile interface. It is incorporated that the probablitity of corresponding contact state is determined, based on the degree of similarity of the characteristics between new input data and reference data patterns stored in advance. Referring to the SOM (Self-Organizing Maps) formed through learning, which contains the relationship between contact states and tactile stimulation detected, a robot that comes into contact with a human can recognize and infer contact states from tactile stimulation like the receiver. Next, in order to accomplish high-performance of contact state identification by improving the learning performance, an evaluation criterion to quantify the discriminatability of contact states is proposed. Finally, the experimental results confirm that the proposed method is useful for identifying contact states, based on only tactile sensing, as represented by the receiver.

　View Summary

In this paper, we propose a design method of whole-body tactile interface for elevating human-robot coordination. The proposed surface cover sensor as the tactile interface enables robots to detect accurate 3-D force vector applied on various parts of the body during physical interaction with humans.
First, after analysis of a variety of contact situations between humans and robots, tactile and force information needed are specified, and the specifications are decided based on knowledge of human engineering. Next, a design method of a cover sensor that can detect accurate force vector and contact position is described. The cover sensor utilizes a force-torque sensor and is surrounded with several touch sensors. The mechanism was implemented on a humanoid robot, WENDY. Finally, evaluation experiments of locus tracking on the surface and force-following to humans were carried out. The experimental results demonstrate the high capabilities of the proposed cover sensor as human-robot interface, and indicate that the proposed design method of whole-body tactile interface is capable of enhancing human-robot coordination.

In this paper, we herein describe force detectable surface covers for humanoid robots to realize naturally physical interaction with humans. The covers can detect various tactile and force information, such as accurate external force vector and contact positions, from a widely range of the robot body surface. First a basic surface cover structure composed of a force-torque sensor and several touch sensors is proposed. Next, we present a design method to implement such a cover structure onto dual arms of an actual humanoid robot. Finally, from basic experiments for verifying the characteristics of the proposed force-detectable surface cover systems, it was confirmed that high measurement accuracy of a contact position and force vector is accomplished. In addition, from an application experiment, where some humans actually occur physical interference with an actual humanoid robot overlaid with the covers, it was confirmed that the capability of the covers' sensing even several contacts on several parts of robots' body is effective for realizing high level human-robot symbiosis.

　View Summary

We propose a new locomotion rehabilitation RT device, PARTY(Perception Assisting Robotics TechnologY) that enables the paralyzed to get a perception-bypassed communication root via a non-paralyzed-part body for recognizing foot contact pressures of the paralyzed-side. This study indicates an optimal body part used for the bypassing from the viewpoint of neuron communication theory, especially focusing on the bilateral innervations and the commissural fiber where communications between both brain sides are reinforced. In addition, a remarkable rehabilitation outcome through validation with Functional Near-infrared Spectroscopy demonstrating reinforced attentiveness to the paralytic-side body was achieved thanks to a leg-PARTY.

Impact Safety Design and Control Method for Human Symbiotic Robots

Project Year :

　View Summary

Novel design strategies and behavior control criterions for ensuring impact safety of human symbiotic robots are obtained with improvement of both components and system integration technologies. Validity of this project is substantiated from several experimental tasks that requires impact safety and cooperation ability with human. Three main results are summarized as follows.
Design and Control Strategy :
An enormous amount of parameters for design and control of human symbiotic robots are systematized from an aspect of impact safety and human-cooperate ability. In order to obtain this strategy, a safety technology map that diagrams collision situations, standardized environment conditions, and behaviors of robots and humans is devised and utilized.
Behavior Control Criterion :
A behavior control criterion that consists of safety measures in three levels, such as the actuator level, joint level, and whole body level are constructed. This criterion generates several physical interactive behaviors of human symbiotic robots based on the situation models and information from sensors. This internal model is a kind of finite state machine, and each transition path represents safety and human-cooperative behaviors of robots that are adapted to interactive situations.
System integration and Evaluation :
A double safety measure by design and control, and a haptic cover sensor are designed and integrated into the WENDY system. The system consists of eighty actuators and one hundred sensors, and decide its behavior by using the developed haptic cover sensors. For evaluation of the project, experiments are widely conducted from basic motions to practical and difficult tasks. From these experiments, it is confirmed that the integrated system can carry out human-cooperative tasks while ensuring impact safety.

人間共存ロボットのための人工触覚認知に関する基礎的研究

　View Summary

本年度は,触れられ側の人間(受け手)が撫でられたり,叩かれたり,引掻かれたりする際に身体に及ぼされる触覚刺激の特徴をロボットに学習させることで,触覚刺激から触れあい状況を受け手とほぼ同等の曖昧さで推測・識別可能なシステムの整備,ならびに人工触覚認知の基礎理論を確立した.具体的にはまず,触覚刺激から抽出される特徴量と触れあい状態(表現語で記号化)の関係をNNで学習させた上で,触れあい状態相互の混同しやすさを混同行列で整理する方法を考案した.さらに,触覚情報の質や学習条件の設定に応じて変容する認知の混同度合いを定量化するために,混同行列を基に認知の混同しやすさを数値化する評価指標を案出した.この指標に基づき,状態識別を容易にする特徴量の組み合わせの選出ならびに触覚センサ空間分解能を設定する方法を導出した.また,これらの手法を用いて決定した空間分解能を有する圧力分布センサを最外殻に配し,かつ人体の肩・上腕・前腕の体格・外形状を模した触覚インタフェースの設計・開発を行った.次に,取得された触覚刺激の特徴を表現語ごとに自己組織的に汎化処理させることで,表現語ごとの特徴量を多次元空間内で分類するだけでなく,新たな触覚刺激入力に対し最近似ニューロンを特定し各表現語への帰属度を確率的に自動判別できる実時間識別システムを構築した.ここでは,競合層の階層化を図ることで,同一の触覚刺激に対し触れあい状況・痛み・圧迫感認知を並列的に出力できるように情報処理機構の設計を進めた.最後に,受け手の認知を学習させたロボットに対し新たに触覚刺激を入力する総合実験を行った.その結果,上記三つの認知を並列的に,かつ各表現語への帰属度を確率的に出力でき,また,受け手の認知との一致率90%を達成できることが確認され,人間と全身で触れあうロボットの人工触覚認知を構築する上で本手法が有効であることが示された

認知神経リハを支援する誤差覚知RTによる誤学習抑制と臨床応用

2012

　View Summary

　誤差覚知RTとして，足関節を対象とした両肢角度誤差覚知システムを開発した．これは，両肢同姿態再現中に，対称であるべき麻痺肢と非麻痺肢に認知され得ない関節角度差が生じた場合，振動刺激(2値)により誤差発生に気づかせ，運動学習に向けた知覚探索を誘引させる仕組みである．評価のため，慢性期・感覚重度鈍麻患者2名を対象に1日40分間，誤差覚知RTを用いて身体スキーマ(関節覚)の修正訓練をさせた結果，両患者において，訓練前後で有意な角度差の減少が認められた(p<0.01)．特に，患者Zでは，2週目には，訓練前の計測にも拘わらず角度差が健常者水準(2[deg]以下)となったことから，訓練効果が維持される効果も認められた．
