Characterizing Expectation Mismatch in a Brain-Controlled Upper-Body Rehabilitation Exoskeleton

RA-L 2026

Robot-assisted therapy has long promised to advance stroke rehabilitation by delivering intensive and personalized training, yet its clinical impact remains limited. Closing the sensorimotor loop with brain-computer interfaces offers a better strategy than passive mobilization, directly linking user

Real-Time Decoding of Movement Onset and Offset for Brain-Controlled Rehabilitation Exoskeleton

ICRA 2026poster

Robot-assisted therapy can deliver high-dose, task-specific training after neurologic injury, but most systems act primarily at the limb level - engaging the impaired neural circuits only indirectly - which remains a key barrier to truly contingent, neuroplasticity-targeted rehabilitation. We addres…

Towards Evaluating the User Comfort and Experience of a Novel Steerable Drilling Robotic System in Pedicle Screw Fixation Procedures: A User Study

ICRA 2025

Aiming at developing a safe, intuitive, and collaborative steerable drilling robotic system for pedicle screw fixation procedures, in this paper, we leverage our recently developed steerable drilling robotic framework, and developed a collaborative drilling mode to control this system. In this contr

Characterizing the Onset and Offset of Motor Imagery During Passive Arm Movements Induced by an Upper-Body Exoskeleton

IROS 2023poster

Two distinct technologies have gained attention lately due to their prospects for motor rehabilitation: robotics and brain-machine interfaces (BMIs). Harnessing their combined efforts is a largely uncharted and promising direction that has immense clinical potential. However, a significant challenge…

CogniDaVinci: Towards Estimating Mental Workload Modulated by Visual Delays During Telerobotic Surgery - An EEG-based Analysis

ICRA 2023poster

Communication latency in any delicate telerobotic operation (such as remote surgery over distance) would impose a significant challenge due to the temporal degradation of visual perception and can substantially affect the outcomes. Less is known, however, about the neurophysiological basis of how op…

mano: A Wearable Hand Exoskeleton for Activities of Daily Living and Neurorehabilitation

RA-L 2018

Hand sensorimotor impairments are among the most common consequences of injuries affecting the central and peripheral nervous systems, leading to a drastic reduction in the quality of life for affected individuals. Combining wearable robotic exoskeletons and human-machine interfaces is a promising a
