TL;DR: Results showed that arm biomechanical functions can be objectively measured by means of the proposed set of performance indices, and features related to motion planning strategies can be extracted from submovement analysis.

TL;DR: It is shown that force and slipperage sensations can be elicited in an amputee by means of biologically inspired slippage detection and encoding algorithms, supported by a stick-slip model of the performed grasp.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a robot-aided rehabilitation program induces brain reorganizations and interhemispheric connectivity between primary somatosensory areas got closer to a 'physiological level' in parallel with the acquisition of more accurate hand control.

TL;DR: A multi-parametric wearable system based on two fiber Bragg grating sensors is proposed for monitoring neck movements and breathing activity of computer workers and is able to well-match the trend in time of the head movements and estimate mean and breath-by-breath respiratory frequency values.

TL;DR: A multi-sensor smart garment based on six sensing elements and related bespoke algorithms are able to provide robust information about LaTeX values on both average and breath-by-breath bases even during physical activities.
