Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of linear accelerations from three measurement systems during "reach & grasp".
Sibylle B. Thies,Philip A. Tresadern,Lpj Kenney,David Howard,John Y. Goulermas,Christine Smith,Julie Rigby +6 more
TL;DR: Evaluated and compares linear acceleration trajectories obtained from two different 3D accelerometers and derived from Vicon position data for an upper limb "reach & grasp" task, finding good correspondence between the three measurement systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomechanics for inclusive urban design : effects of tactile paving on older adults’ gait when crossing the street
Sibylle B. Thies,Lpj Kenney,David Howard,Christopher J. Nester,Marcus Ormerod,Rita Newton,Rose Baker,Mohammad Faruk,HA MacLennan +8 more
TL;DR: Gait analysis of 32 healthy older adults showed that tactile paving increases the variability in timing of foot placement by 20%, thereby indicating a disturbance of the rhythmic gait pattern, and the ability to stop upon cue from the traffic light was compromised.
Journal ArticleDOI
Addressing unpredictability may be the key to improving performance with current clinically prescribed myoelectric prostheses.
TL;DR: In this article, the efferent control chain for an upper-limb myoelectric prosthesis can be separated into three key areas: signal generation, signal acquisition, and device response.
Prosthetics services in Uganda : a series of studies to inform the design of a low cost, but fit-for-purpose, body-powered prosthesis
Lpj Kenney,Robert T. Ssekitoleko,Aea Chadwell,Margaret Donovan-Hall,D Morgado Ramirez,Catherine Holloway,P Graham,A Cockroft,B Deere,S McCormack,A Semwanga,H Gizamba,M Kalibbala +12 more
TL;DR: Preliminary studies aimed at grounding the ‘Fit-for-purpose, affordable body-powered prostheses’ project in the reality of current prosthetics services and the experiences of people with limb absence in Uganda are reported, and the ongoing work is outlined.
