Despite researchers having extensively studied various ways to track body pose on-the-go, most prior work does not take into account wheelchair users, leading to poor tracking performance. Wheelchair users could greatly benefit from this…
Flipped learning is a method that flips in/out class activities to make lectures learner-centered. In flipped learning, comments from learners on preparation material are useful information for instructors to consider before deciding…
This paper presents the design and development of a robotic system to give physical assistance to the elderly or people with neurological disorders such as Ataxia or Parkinson's. In particular, we propose using a mobile collaborative robot…
Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) has been the cornerstone for zero-shot classification, text-image retrieval, and text-image generation by aligning image and text modalities. Despite its widespread adoption, a significant…
Passive shoulder exoskeletons have been widely introduced in the industry to aid upper extremity movements during repetitive overhead work. As an ergonomic intervention, it is important to understand how users adapt to these devices over…
Computer-assisted multimodal training is an effective way of learning complex motor skills in various applications. In particular disciplines (eg. healthcare) incompetency in performing dexterous hands-on examinations (clinical palpation)…
We propose a system that estimates people's body and head orientations using low-resolution point cloud data from two LiDAR sensors. Our models make accurate estimations in real-world conversation settings where subjects move naturally with…
Yoga is widely recognized for improving physical fitness, flexibility, and mental well being. However, these benefits depend strongly on correct posture execution. Improper alignment during yoga practice can reduce effectiveness and…
Sedentary behavior poses a major public health risk, being strongly linked to obesity, cardiovascular disease, and other chronic conditions. Accurately estimating sitting time is therefore critical for monitoring and improving individual…
Isometric exercises appeal to individuals seeking convenience, privacy, and minimal dependence on equipments. However, such fitness training is often overdependent on unreliable digital media content instead of expert supervision,…
Occupational exoskeletons promise to reduce the incidence of musculoskeletal injuries; however, we do not know if their designs allow universal use by all workers. We also do not know how easy the tasks of assembling, donning, doffing, and…
Workload often triggers anxiety for office workers. While a variety of stress intervention and management techniques have been explored, there exist only a few of portable tangible interfaces for anxiety reduction. Contributing to the body…
Virtual Reality (VR) users often encounter postural instability, i.e., balance issues, which can be a significant impediment to universal usability and accessibility, particularly for those with balance impairments. Prior research has…
We investigated the effects of a plantar pressure-based tongue-placed electrotactile biofeedback on postural control during quiet standing under normal and altered vestibular and neck proprioceptive conditions. To achieve this goal,…
Ergonomic assessment of human posture plays a vital role in understanding work-related safety and health. Current posture estimation approaches face occlusion challenges in teleoperation and physical human-robot interaction. We investigate…
Motor Imagery (MI) is gaining traction in both rehabilitation and sports settings, but its immediate influence on human postural control is not yet clearly understood. The focus of this study is to examine the effects of MI on the dynamics…
Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP), a simple yet effective pre-training paradigm, successfully introduces text supervision to vision models. It has shown promising results across various tasks due to its generalizability and…
Pressure ulcers (PU) are known to be a high-cost disease with a risk of severe morbidity. This work evaluates a new clinical strategy based on an innovative medical device (Tongue Display Unit-TDU) that implements perceptive supplementation…
Human pose estimators are typically retrained from scratch or naively fine-tuned whenever keypoint sets, sensing modalities, or deployment domains change--an inefficient, compute-intensive practice that rarely matches field constraints. We…
Large curved displays are ideal for viewing 360 degree content, such as 3D maps, but typically restrict users to a 180 degree viewport, leaving information off-screen. Since users naturally direct their heads toward regions on-screen before…
