Review article: Introducing the lung sounds
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
Lung is one of the most crucial part in human body. Ever since the invention of stethoscope, lung auscultation had been very important ever since. By listening to lung sound, lung diseases can be detected and monitored ...
Real-time path planning nonholonomic car-like mobile platform dubins shortest path model
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
Dubins curve is implemented in the study to obtain the shortest path for navigation on car-like mobile platform. In order to determine the shortest path between the two positions for a mobile platform, every detail should ...
Analysis of right arm biceps brachii muscle activity with varying the electrode placement on three male age groups during isometric contractions using a wireless EMG sensor
(Elsevier Ltd., 2012)
The purpose of this study was to quantify and analyze the muscle activity of the biceps brachii (BB) muscle from three different male age groups and varying the electrode placement on their muscles. Six subjects in three ...
Human skin detections based on balanced skin-color gradient
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
This paper talks about a new technique and its implementation of a Human Skin Detection algorithm based on balanced skin-color. In human skin detection and segmentation, human skin must be located in the image and then can ...
Analysis of the effect on electrode placement on an adolescent's biceps brachii during muscle contractions using a wireless EMG sensor
(Society of Physical Therapy Science, 2012)
[Purpose] Electromyography (EMG) is a random signal recording process that fully depends on proper electrode placement on the active muscle. The present study investigated and analyzed the electrical (amplitude) responses ...
Mechanomyography sensors for muscle assessment: a brief review
(Society of Physical Therapy Science, 2012)
[Purpose] There are three mechanomyography terminologies that are commonly used: acoustic myography, vibromyography, and phonomyography. There is no clear evidence concerning the sensors used among these terminologies. ...
Variability in surface electromyography of right arm biceps brachii muscles between male adolescent, vicenarian and tricenarian with distinct electrode placement
(IEEE Conference Publications, 2012)
The aim of this paper was to verify and measure the variability in surface electromyography (sEMG) of upper arm biceps brachii muscle during isometric contraction. Nine healthy right arm dominated males from three age-groups ...
The future of medical training: Virtual reality
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
The term “virtual reality” is no longer strange to most of us due to its involvement in entertainment, modern film production and computer gaming. The development of flight simulator in the last decade has received great ...
A framework for the development of measurement and quality assurance in software-based medical rehabilitation systems
(Elsevier Ltd., 2012)
The field of computer and robot-assisted rehabilitation system is rooted in the principle that software must be largely errorless, user-friendly, robust, accurate with respect to data, respond in a timely manner, and yet ...
Vision-based motion tracking rehabilitation system for gait disorder
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2012-11)
Aim of the present study was to review the articles for the vision-based motion tracking, usually applied on the rehabilitation systems of gait disorder. Based on our ultimate goal, we searched several articles, available ...
