Gloger M, Obinata G, Genda E, Babjak J, Pei Y
IEEE Int Conf Rehabil Robot . 2017 Aug; 2017:258-263. PMID: 28813828
The main challenges of designing devices for paraplegic walking can be summarized into three groups, stability and comfort, high efficiency or low energy consumption, dimensions and weight. A new economical...

Kim Y, Obinata G, Kawk B, Jung J, Lee S
Med Biol Eng Comput . 2017 Jul; 56(2):297-305. PMID: 28714049
Hardness, dimensions, and location of biological tissues are important parameters for electronic palpation protocols with standardized performance. This study presents a novel fluid-type tactile sensor able to measure size and...

Lee J, Mizumoto R, Obinata G, Genda E, Stefanov D, Aoki H, et al.
Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc . 2016 Jan; 2015:5732-5. PMID: 26737594
A hip-knee-ankle-foot orthotic system called `HALO'(Hip and Ankle Linked Orthosis) for paraplegic walking has been developed in our previous study. Each ankle joint of the HALO system is linked with...

Ito Y, Kim Y, Obinata G
Sensors (Basel) . 2014 Mar; 14(4):5805-22. PMID: 24670719
A new method is proposed to estimate the contact region between a sensor and an object using a deformable tactile sensor. The sensor consists of a charge-coupled device (CCD) camera,...

Nagai C, Hisada S, Obinata G, Genda E
IEEE Int Conf Rehabil Robot . 2013 Nov; 2013:6650356. PMID: 24187175
Several types of hip-knee-ankle-foot orthotic systems have been proposed for paraplegic walking during these decades. Hip and ankle linked orthosis (HALO) is compact one in those orthoses, which seeks to...

Uchiyama Y, Nagai C, Obinata G
Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc . 2013 Feb; 2012:4816-9. PMID: 23367005
To design a powered assistive orthosis for human walking, we have simulated walking motion with an orthosis. The model dynamics of the coupled human-orthosis is represented by a 10-rigid-link system....

Tokuda S, Obinata G, Palmer E, Chaparro A
Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc . 2012 Jan; 2011:4523-9. PMID: 22255344
This study proposes a new method to automatically estimate a person's mental workload (MWL) using a specific type of eye movements called saccadic intrusions (SI). Previously, the most accurate existing...

Park K, Kim Y, Obinata G
Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc . 2012 Jan; 2011:3127-30. PMID: 22255002
Recently, bilateral movement training based on robot-assisted rehabilitation systems has been attracting a lot of attention as a post-stroke motor rehabilitation protocol. Since humans generate coordinated motions based on their...

Kim Y, Tagawa Y, Obinata G, Hase K
Biol Cybern . 2011 Dec; 105(3-4):269-82. PMID: 22138897
This paper proposes a method for enhancing the robustness of the central pattern generator (CPG)-based three-dimensional (3D) neuromusculoskeletal walking controller. The CPG has been successfully applied to walking controllers and...

Obinata G, Ogisu T, Hase K, Kim Y, Genda E
Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc . 2009 Dec; 2009:5901-4. PMID: 19965053
Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is useful to improve the gait of patients with peroneal nerve palsy or spastic hemiparesis after stroke. So as to apply FES to such patients, we...
