AB  - Конвенционална површинска електромиографија (сЕМГ) је метод процене мишићне активности. Конвенционални сЕМГ даје локалну слику и јако зависи од положаја електрода у односу на мишић.

У овој тези је приказана примена нових типова матричних електрода и унапређења анализе просторно-временске расподеле активности мишића. Резултати тезе омогућују унапређење терапије пацијената са сензорно-моторним дефицитом.Један циљ истраживања је било унапређење управљањем мултифункционалном трансрадијалном протезом. У истраживањима смо показали да примена 24-каналног минијатурног уређаја (Smarting, mBrainTrain, Београд) и електрода са 24 проводна поља дизајнирана у лабораторији у сарадњи са предузећем Tecnalia Serbia, Београд омогућује поновљиво снимање ЕМГ мапа. Алгоритам који смо развили користи природну корелацију просторних и темпоралних синергија мишића са кинематиком хода и може директно да се примени за управљање активним мултифункционалним трансрадијалним протезама и роботским хватаљкама.Друга примена наших метода и инструментације је за праћење опоравка у рехабилитацији пацијената са поремећајима у ходу. Показали смо да метода омогућује праћење елемената симетрије мишићних активности уз истовремено снимање механике хода. Показали смо да ЕМГ мапе омогућују анализу правилности покрета у односу на облик који карактерише правилан покрет.Трећа примена коју смо развили омогућује да миметички пренесемо активност измерену на здравом екстремитету на паретични или парализовани екстремитет. Ова техника омогућује селективну функционалну електричну стимулацију. Метод смо проверили са новим електродама на пацијентима после можданог удара.
AB  - Conventional surface electromyography (sEMG) is a method of assessing muscle activity. Conventional sEMG gives a local image and depends on the position of the electrodes in relation to the muscle. To obtain a better picture of muscle activity, it is suitable to use array-electrodes and measure the voltage between the array elements and one reference point. We present the application of new types of array-electrodes and the improved analysis of the spatial-temporal distribution of muscle activities. The results of the thesis are suitable for the improved therapy of patients with sensory-motor deficit.One goal was to improve the myoelectric control of the multifunctional transradial prosthesis. We show that the 24-channel wearable amplifier (Smarting, mBrainTrain, Belgrade) and the 24-pad electrode designed in our Lab in collaboration with Tecnalia Serbia, Belgrade allow reproducible recording of sEMG. The algorithm we developed uses the correlation of spatio-temporal muscle synergies with gait mechanics and has a direct application for control of multifunctional transradial prosthesis.Second application of our methods and instrumentation is to monitor recovery in the rehabilitation of patients with gait disorders. We have shown that the method allows monitoring the elements of symmetry of muscle activities while recording the gait mechanics. We have shown that EMG maps allow the analysis of the regularity of movement in relation to the shape that characterizes the correct movement.Third application of the research results allows a transfer of target zones determined from the activity measured on a healthy limb to a paralyzed limb. This technique allows effective selective functional electrical stimulation. We tested the method with new electrodes on patients after stroke.

AB  - The assessment of the motor performance is an essential component of rehabilitation of humans with a disability. The wearable system is a preferable solution compared to the laboratory-based instrumentation for the clinical use. We integrated a system which combines array electrodes over the muscles of interest connected to the 24-channel digital amplifier and the shoe insole with five robust pressure transducers and one inertial measurement unit per leg. The system sends signals wirelessly to a computer. The graphical interface is simple for usage and simple to interpret. The EMG patterns (muscle activities) and gait events are synchronized by the software. The EMG patterns are determined by cubic spline interpolation of data from 24-pads over the muscle. The gait events are estimated by fuzzy logics applied on the thresholds from signals coming from the insole. The system was tested and accepted by the therapist as a useful and easy clinical tool.

AB  - Achieving the functional grasp by electrical stimulation using surface electrodes is a demanding task. The innervations of muscles come via ulnar, radial and median nerves. The anatomy of nerve branches connecting various muscles in the forearm differs significantly between individuals. We hypothesize that the anatomical differences between the paretic and nonparetic arms are minimal. Based on this assumption we developed a method where the differences of muscle activities (EMG) between the healthy and paretic arms recorded by the 24-contact electrode within an array define the target zones to be stimulated on the affected forearm. We used special electrode where magnetic contacts allow simple change of the stimulation pads. The examiner positions the magnetic contact on the pads where the EMG differences are maximal. The stimulator delivers asynchronous stimulation to the selected pads. We proved that the method is working in stroke patients by measuring joint angles and the grasping force. © 2019, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

AB  - The workshop is structured to have a theoretical introduction and subsequent application oriented hands-on demonstrations. The workshop is planned to include continuous interactive discussion. The workshop will focus on non-invasive options for the control of paralyzed arm-hand complex after the central nervous system lesion (brain lesion, cervical lesion of the spinal cord, and similar). The workshop starts with theory describing the principle of the operation of functional activation of paralyzed muscles by means of electrical field and differences between the use of transcutaneous and implantable technologies. The results on the efficacy of FES augmented manipulation and grasping, with the emphasis on what were the limitations of the systems applied, will follow. The main questions that will be answered deal with methods to provide sufficient selectivity, minimize muscle fatigue, and have the control that matches the needs of users. The practical part will be a demonstration of the strategies and limitations of the surface activation of arm muscles to support the exercise, manipulation and exercise. The presentation will include the activation of sensory pathways for possible feedback applications. An interesting example will be described where the FES technology can be used for the reduction of tremor. The practical part will be with the new stimulators MOTIMOVE (https://www.3-x-f.com/products.php) and UNAFET stimulators used in clinical trials for therapy persons after stroke and spinal cord lesion at the cervical level.

AB  - Increased muscle tone and exaggerated tendon reflexes characterize most of the individuals after a spinal cord injury (SCI). We estimated seven parameters from the pendulum test and used them to compare with the Ashworth modified scale of spasticity grades in three populations (retrospective study) to assess their spasticity. Three ASIA B SCI patients who exercised on a stationary FES bicycle formed group F, six ASIA B SCI patients who received only conventional therapy were in the group C, and six healthy individuals constituted the group H. The parameters from the pendulum test were used to form a single measure, termed the PT score, for each subject. The pendulum test parameters show differences between the F and C groups, but not between the F and H groups, however, statistical significance was limited due to the small study size. Results show a small deviation from the mean for all parameters in the F group and substantial deviations from the mean for the parameters in the C group. PT scores show significant differences between the F and C groups and the C and H groups and no differences between the F and C groups. The correlation between the PT score and Ashworth score was 0.88. © 2017 IEEE.

AB  - The development of a comprehensive computational model of the pendulum test which is appropriate for the analysis of the pathologic behavior of the leg in humans with the central nervous system (CNS) lesion is presented in this review. The model relates to the pendulum movement of the lower leg (shank and the foot) in the lateral plane due to the gravity and involuntary contractions of the muscles. The viscous damping and elastic stiffness reflect the soft tissues and friction in the knee joint. To quantify the pathologic activity of paralyzed muscles a reflex torque was added to the gravity generated knee joint torque. The knee joint encoder, accelerometers and gyroscopes positioned along the shank and thigh, and EMG amplifiers were used to acquire data for the illustration of the validity of the model. We show that the linear model of the movement of the lower leg is not a good representation of the motor impairment. We show that the model expanded with the reflex torque affecting the movement is well suited for the pendulum analysis. The timing of the reflex torques can be determined from the EMG recordings. © Serbian Journal of Electrical Engineering. 2018.

AB  - The pendulum test is the method for quantification of the level of spasticity in persons with spinal cord and brain injuries/diseases. The data for the assessment comes from the analysis of lower leg rotation in the sagittal plane while sitting caused by gravity. We built a simple instrument that uses the smart phone and passive markers for studying the pendulum movement of the leg. We compared the results of the new device with the results acquired with the conventional apparatus which uses a knee joint angle encoder and inertial sensors mounted on the upper and lower leg. The differences of parameters estimated from the test between the two systems are in the range of 5%, which is in the same range as the precision of the positioning of the pendulum apparatus on the leg. The new system is simple for the application (donning, doffing, setup time, accuracy, repeatability) and allows a straightforward interpretation to a clinician. © Serbian Journal of Electrical Engineering. 2018.

AB  - We hypothesized that practicing balance with feedback will improve the gait in hemiplegic patients. The practice consisted of two weeks 30-minute long Wii-Fit balance board gaming. The gait analysis was based on ground reaction pressures (GRP) recorded with the custom designed insoles. The data were collected at 100 samples per second from two insoles, each comprising five pressure (force) sensors. The sensors communicated with the host computer by a WiFi link. Custom software was developed in Matlab for automatic segmentation of the GRP data into segments belonging to swing and stance phases of each step. The examiner could correct the automatic segmentation if necessary. The outputs from the program were: pressure vs. time from all sensors and standard gait data (cadence, symmetry index, etc.). The results show that the exercise of the function with feedback has positive effects on the gait performance. The exercise period was only two weeks, and the group was small and heterogeneous; hence, a more extensive study is required for proving the significance.

AB  - The gait restoration is a significant component of the rehabilitation of patients with hemiplegia after central nervous system lesion. The typical symptom of the disability is the lack of hip extension during the stance phase and hip flexion during the swing phase of the affected leg; therefore, asymmetry and perturbed balance while walking. We developed a new modular orthosis for assisting hip flexion and extension during the therapeutic sessions of the gait in hemiplegic individuals based on thorough analysis of the gait characteristics of normal gait. The system is designed to fit into the powered postural controller Walkaround®. The system is developed based on the estimation of torque and power requirement for the gait at speeds up to 1.1 m/s. The model used for the simulation is a known double pendulum in the sagittal plane. The kinematics and dynamics used as the input for the simulation have been recorded in the gait laboratory with eight cameras and force platforms. The system needs to be clinically evaluated before it possibly can be turned into innovation. © 2018, University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Science.

AB  - We studied the effects of the balancing exercise with visual feedback to the correction of posture in stroke patients. We included eight stroke patients into a 30-minute daily, two-week long clinical study where Wii-Fit balance board was the instrument to provide visual feedback. We assessed the posture before and after the treatment by four clinical tests: Berg balance test, Barthel index, Timed up & go and Functional reach test. We also analyzed the ground reaction pressures (GRP). We measured the GRP by using insoles comprising five MEMS sensors each. We developed a program that created maps showing ground pressure distribution. The program uses cubic spline interpolation of data. The maps of left and right sole were compared to assess the symmetry, and the maps before and after the treatment were used to examine the effects of the exercise. The clinical test scores suggest improved standing after the treatment compared with before the treatment. The maps of ground reaction pressure also show improvement, but more critical provide information for correcting the posture.

AB  - The assessment of spasticity is an important indicator of the course of the recovery in humans with central nervous system lesion. This recovery may be augmented by optimal ergonomic design of wheelchairs, beds, transferring devices and other devices used in activities of daily life. To quantify the influence of different aids and methods in reduction or increase of spasticity, an objective measure is required. The pendulum test was introduced to induce the stretch of the muscle, thereby, trigger spastic response, and the amplitudes of first sinusoidal movements are used as the measure of spasticity. We present a new model of the lower leg during the pendulum test which includes the nonlinear characteristics of the muscles, and a model of the shank and foot that are customized to the patient. The spastic torque component is calculated based on acquired values of angular acceleration, angular velocity, and angle. We developed a new analysis methodology and tool to describe the level and course of reflexive behavior. We describe the instrumentation for data acquisition. The kinematics is captured by two accelerometers, one gyroscope, and a Hall-effect joint angle encoder. Muscle activities of prime knee flexors and extensors are synchronously recorded. The simulation uses user's particular inertial parameters and data from repeated pendulum movements of the lower leg and outputs the reflexive torque. We developed the user-friendly software in MatLab for the analysis of data recorded with the new instrument. We present the application of the method in representative healthy subject and two spastic SCI patients. The main finding is that this method allows distinction between the flexion and extensions types of spasticity and the level of reflexive behavior.

Control of functional electrical stimulation for restoration of motor function

AB  - An injury or disease of the central nervous system (CNS) results in significant limitations in the communication with the environment (e.g., mobility, reaching and grasping). Functional electrical stimulation (FES) externally activates the muscles; thus, can restore several motor functions and reduce other health related problems. This review discusses the major bottleneck in current FES which prevents the wider use and better outcome of the treatment. We present a control method that we continually enhance during more than 30 years in the research and development of assistive systems. The presented control has a multi-level structure where upper levels use finite state control and the lower level implements model based control. We also discuss possible communication channels between the user and the controller of the FES. The artificial controller can be seen as the replica of the biological control. The principle of replication is used to minimize the problems which come from the interplay of biological and artificial control in FES. The biological control relies on an extensive network of neurons sending the output signals to the muscles. The network is being trained though many the trial and error processes in the early childhood, but staying open to changes throughout the life to satisfy the particular needs. The network considers the nonlinear and time variable properties of the motor system and provides adaptation in time and space. The presented artificial control method implements the same strategy but relies on machine classification, heuristics, and simulation of model-based control. The motivation for writing this review comes from the fact that many control algorithms have been presented in the literature by the authors who do not have much experience in rehabilitation engineering and had never tested the operations with patients. Almost all of the FES devices available implement only open-loop, sensory triggered preprogrammed sequences of stimulation. The suggestion is that the improvements in the FES devices need better controllers which consider the overall status of the potential user, various effects that stimulation has on afferent and efferent systems, reflexive responses to the FES and direct responses to the FES by non-stimulated sensory-motor systems, and the greater integration of the biological control.

AB  - Transcutaneous activation of muscles with electrical stimulation has limited selectivity in recruiting paralyzed muscles in stroke patients. However, the selectivity could be increased by the application of smaller electrodes and their appropriate positioning on the skin. We developed a method for selecting the appropriate positions of the stimulating electrodes based on electromyography (EMG). The EMG activity maps were estimated from signals recorded with two electrode arrays and two 24-channel wearable amplifiers positioned on the nonparetic and paretic forearms. The areas where the difference between the EMG maps obtained from the nonparetic and paretic arms was significant were identified as the stimulation sites. The stimulation was applied through array electrodes with magnetic holders and two wearable stimulators with four output channels each. The measures of functionality included joint angles measured with goniometers (hand opening) and grasp force measured with a multi-contact dynamometer (grasping). The stimulation protocol comprised co-activation of flexors and extensors to stabilize the wrist joint and prevent pronation/supination.

AB  - Metode i instrumentacija za merenje pokreta su od značaja za procenu i ocenu motornih sposobnosti ispitanika. Izlaganje u ovom udžbeniku je podeljeno na dve celine imajući u vidu da studenti koji se usavršavaju u oblasti mehatronike u rehabilitaciji dolaze sa različitim predznanjima. Prvi deo udžbenika je napisan tako da zainteresovani mogu da sagledaju principe i osnovne probleme u primeni instrumentacije za akviziciju geometrijskih, kinematičkih, dinamičkih i elektrofizioloških signala koji karakterišu pokrete. Drugi deo udžbenika je serija rezultata autora publikovanih u časopisima koji ilustruju značaj signala koji karakterišu pokrete za rehabilitaciju, a za praćenje tog dela knjige potrebna su inženjerska znanja. Udžbenik počinje pregledom signala koji su od interesa za analizu pokreta. Tekst zatim daje detaljan prikaz stanja u oblasti sistema za merenje pokreta, a autori su svesno ušli u rizik da prikaz uskoro postane zastareo jer sofisticiranost postojećih sistema direktno zavisi od stanja tehnologija koje su sada u eksploziji (novi materijali i informacione tehnologije). U tekstu je poglavlje o principima rada, konstrukciji i funkcijama senzora od interesa za analizu pokreta, a sadržaj je modifikovani tekst o senzorima iz udžbenika Dejana Popovića, "Medicinska instrumentacija i merenja", Akademska misao, 2014. U knjizi smo prikazali i osnove metodologije i instrumentacije za merenje mišićne aktivnosti površinskim elektrodama. Četvrta glava udžbenika ima naslov "podsetnik is mehanike" i daje rezime principa biomehanike i primere koji doprinose razumevanju analize pokreta. Cilj podsetnika je familijarizacija studenta koji nemaju inženjersko obrazovanje sa terminologijom i pomoć u komunikaciji u toku istraživanja sa kolegama koji su obrazovani u oblasti inženjerstva. Drugi deo udžbenika je na engleskom jeziku jer uključuje radove koji su publikovani na engleskom. Ovaj deo knjige ima cilj da studente upozna sa metodama primene instrumentacije za analizu motorike u kliničkim uslovima. Takođe, ovaj deo pokazuje jasno značaj praćenja motorike za objektivizaciju procesa u rehabilitaciji. Konačno, pokazujemo kako signali mogu da se iskoriste za razvoj novih tehnika rehabilitacije, tj. upravljanje novim mehatroničkim sistemima. Ovaj udžbenik u potpunosti pokriva program predmeta "Metode i instrumentacija za merenje motorike" na smeru master studija "Mehatronika u medicinskoj rehabilitaciji". Verujemo da će sadržaj udžbenika i znanja koja studenti steknu pomoći u uspešnoj primeni mehatroničkih sistema u rehabilitaciji, ali i šire od toga proširenju vidika i sagledavanju kontrapunkta čoveka i mašine, tj. produbljenju radoznalosti i želja da se izgrade nove veze čovek - mašina.

AB  - The paper presents a calibration model suitable for software-based calibration of Kinect-type RGB-D sensors. Additionally, it describes a two-step calibration procedure assuming a use of only a simple checkerboard pattern. Finally, the paper presents a calibration case study, showing that the calibration may improve sensor accuracy 3 to 5 times, depending on the anticipated use of the sensor. The results obtained in this study using calibration models of different levels of complexity reveal that depth measurement correction is an important component of calibration as it may reduce by 50% the errors in sensor reading.

AB  - The chapter presents the development of a modular compliant robotic hand characterized by the anthropomorphic structure and functionality. The prototype is made based on experience in development of contemporary advanced artificial hands and taking into account the complementary aspects of human bio-mechanics. The robot hand developed in the Institute Mihailo Pupin is called “Pupin hand”. The Pupin hand is developed for research purposes as well as for implementation with service and medical robot devices as an advance robot end-effector. Mechanical design, system identification, modeling and simulation and acquisition of the biological skill of grasping adopted from humans are considered in the chapter. Mechanical structure of the tendon-driven, multi-finger, 23 degrees of freedom compliant robot hand is presented in the chapter. Model of the hand is represented by corresponding multi-body rigid system with the complementary structural elasticity inserted between the particular finger modules. Some characteristic simulation results are given in the chapter in order to validate the chosen design concept. For the purpose of motion capture of human grasping skill, an appropriate experimental setup is prepared. It includes an infrared Kinect camera that combines visual and depth information about objects from the environment. The aim of using the Kinect sensor is to acquire human grasping skill and to map this natural motion to the robotic device. The novelties of the robot hand prototyping beyond to the state-of-the-art are stressed out in the conclusion.

The robot consists of a wheeled mobile platform with a spinal (segmented) torso, bi-manual manipulation system with hands, and a robot head with capabilities to see, hear and speak. It is equipped with a number of advanced sensors, including indoor laser range finder, several ultrasonic probes as distance sensors and obstacle detectors, 3-axis inertial sensors with gyroscope, stereo vision system, 2 wide-range microphones, and 2 speakerphones. Its operation is autonomous but it may be controlled from a host computer through a wireless link. The robot prototype is expected to express advanced cognitive capabilities including spatial understanding, autonomous motion, affective and social behavior. The development of the robot is a joint effort of four Serbian academic institutions and it is expected to have it fully operational in the second half of 2015.

The accuracy provided by such sensors is generally unsatisfactory for many robotic applications, but it may be improved through calibration. This paper presents a calibration case study that is based on the sensor calibration procedure involving only a use of a simple checkerboard. It is shown that the calibration enables improving sensor accuracy 3 to 5 times, depending on the anticipated use of the sensor. Additionally, results obtained using different levels of complexity of calibration models reveal that depth measurement correction is an important component of calibration as it may reduce by 50% the errors in sensor reading.
