Motion Capture of a Lower Limbs Exoskeleton For Virtual Reality Application with a Treadmill
Published in Procceedings of the 24th ABCM International Congress of Mechanical Engineering, 2019
This work describes the development of a virtual reality application, in which the legs movement of a person wearing a lower limbs robotic exoskeleton can be tracked and reproduced virtually, while the person walks on a treadmill.

Lower Limbs Embodiment through CCD Algorithm for Physical Rehabilitation With Virtual Reality (Incorporação de membros inferiores através do algoritmoccd para prática de terapia física com realidade virtual).
Published in IV Mechanical Engineering Graduate Research Symposium from EESC-USP, 2019
This paper shows the results of an inverse kinematics algorithm based on Cyclic Coordinate Descent (CCD) as a means of providing a more intense feeling of presence inside virtual reality for lower limbs rehabilitation purposes.

Control Design Inspired by Motors Primitives to Coordinate the Functioning of an Active Knee Orthosis for Robotic Rehabilitation
Published in To be published on Proceedings of the International Federation for Medical and Biological Engineering (IFMBE), 2020
The primitives are calculated from the torques obtained by OpenSim’s Inverse Dynamics, which are used as input into the scaled model of the subject that used the orthosis along with the positions provided by the encoders of the orthosis fixed to the knee joint of the subject, who performed the extension/flexion movement. The proposed strategy was evaluated using a Forward Dynamics algorithm, through which new knee position data were obtained.

Analysis of Matrix Factorization Techniques for Extraction of Motion Motor Primitive
Published in To be published on Proceedings of the International Federation for Medical and Biological Engineering (IFMBE), 2020
The present work analyzes the results yielded by four of the most used matrix factoring techniques (PCA, ICA, NNMF, SOBI) using electromyography signals. The results suggest that the PCA is the technique that best managed to reconstruct the EMG signals after their factorization, with a virtually zero relative error. The SOBI technique also yielded satisfactory results, followed by NNMF and finally ICA, which presented a reconstructed signal quite different from the original.

Remote Control Architecture for Virtual Reality Application for Ankle Therapy
Published in To be published on Proceedings of the International Federation for Medical and Biological Engineering (IFMBE), 2020
This paper introduces briefly a robotic device for ankle rehabilitation and the control scheme, shows the development of a virtual reality racing game and introduces a third element, the physiotherapist computer, which can change remotely the robot resistance, thus increasing the game difficulty.
