TL;DR: Findings suggest that there is a certain inclination angle or angular range where subjects do switch between a level walking and a stair walking gait pattern, and no definite signs could be found indicating thatthere is an adaptation or shift in the motor patterns when moving from level to stair walking.

TL;DR: A multiple-task gait analysis protocol including self-selected, increased and decreased speed gait; Walking on toes; walking on heels; step ascending and step descending, and apply it to 40 healthy subjects thus building extensive reference data set is proposed.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Higher correlations were observed between the protocols with similar biomechanical models, whereas little influence seems to be ascribed to the marker-set, and all five protocols showed good intra-protocol repeatability.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The proposed method, based on the combined use of an optoelectronic system for motion capture and suitable matrices of pressure sensors, has allowed the measurement of a large set of car driver posture parameters and the identification of specific sitting strategies characterising the driving posture, despite the different behaviours of the analysed subjects.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The evidence of abnormal inter-segmental coordination during turning in mildly affected, normally walking patients suggests that task-specific pathophysiological mechanisms, not necessary related to basic locomotor deficits, underlie disturbed directional changes in PD.

TL;DR: In this paper, liquid-crystal display (LCD) touch screens that integrate the touch sensing elements with the display circuitry are discussed. But the integration may take a variety of forms.
Abstract: Disclosed herein are liquid-crystal display (LCD) touch screens that integrate the touch sensing elements with the display circuitry. The integration may take a variety of forms. Touch sensing elements can be completely implemented within the LCD stackup but outside the not between the color filter plate and the array plate. Alternatively, some touch sensing elements can be between the color filter and array plates with other touch sensing elements not between the plates. In another alternative, all touch sensing elements can be between the color filter and array plates. The latter alternative can include both conventional and in-plane-switching (IPS) LCDs. In some forms, one or more display structures can also have a touch sensing function. Techniques for manufacturing and operating such displays, as well as various devices embodying such displays are also disclosed.

TL;DR: For STA to be compensated for effectively, it is here suggested that either its subject-specific pattern is assessed by ad hoc exercises or it is characterized from a large series of measurements on different subject populations.
