New electro-mechanical cardiopulmonary resuscitation devices may help in providing more constant compressions in depth and compression rate to patients suffering from cardiac arrest. They are easily transportable and allow paramedics to move patients even while applying CPR. The behaviour of these devices however may be different even when using the same guidelines for the effective application of...
The soft robotics approach is widely considered to enable robots in the near future to leave their cages and move freely in our modern homes and manufacturing sites. Musculoskeletal robots are such soft robots which feature passively compliant actuation, while leveraging the advantages of tendon-driven systems. Even though these robots have been intensively researched within the last decade, high-performance...
Application of cardiopulmonary resuscitation to people suffering from cardiac arrest has become an effective way of increasing chances of survival. Current CPR is done manually, however new electro-mechanical resuscitation devices are capable of providing chest compressions at a constant rate and depth, even when the patient is being transported.
The soft robotics approach is widely considered to enable human-friendly robots which are able to work in our future homes and factories. Furthermore, achieving the smooth and natural movements of humans has become a hot topic in robotics, especially when robots are supposed to work in close proximity to humans. The anthropomimetic principle aims at mimicking not only the outside but also the inner...
In the long history of robotics research, the most prominent problem has always been, to develop robots that can safely operate in human-centered environments. One way towards the goal of a safe, and human-friendly robot, is to incorporate more and more of the flexibility that can be found in humans, by mimicking the internal mechanisms. In this work we propose a scalable joint-space control scheme...
