讲座摘要

Interfacial systems (IFS) interact with the human body to achieve a wide range of targets including: injury prevention and treatment, rehabilitation, and performance improvement.  There are many different IFS designed and developed for a range of applications including: aerospace, biomechanics, rehabilitation, and ergonomic devices.  According to a recent market survey, 83million Chinese need these devices, and the market volume is around a 70Billion RMB.  The design of the IFS consists of the following major steps: measurement and data collection, design or rectification, and manufacturing.  This seminar focuses on the measurement of the IFS because of the most significant error contribution towards the final design, and custom foot orthoses (CFOs) are used as a case study.  Typically, the measurements are conducted using a generalized measurement system (GMS), e.g., 3D scanner, Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), etc.  Contrary to this, a novel rapid evaluate adjust device (READ) measurement approach is proposed.  The READ approach uses the concept of rapidly evaluating the subjective feedback and adjusting the geometry and impedance of the measurement device by using a human-in-loop (HIL) reconfigurable measurement system (RMS).  The reconfigurable geometry function is achieved by developing a 3D ergonomic measurement system (3DEMS).  Furthermore, a measurement system that provides INterface with Tunable Ergonomic properties using a Reconfigurable Framework with Adjustable Compliant Elements (INTERFACE system) is also developed to support the idea of changing geometry and impedance.  The geometry and impedance of the interface can be adjusted via linear actuators and tunable stiffness mechanisms (TSM) based on objective interface pressure/load distribution and subjective feedback evaluations.  The interface’s geometrical and impedance properties may be obtained by adjusting the parameters,i.e., geometry and impedance.  The integration of rapid adjustable properties makes it possible to fine tune interface pressure/load.  The HIL geometry and impedance control for the measurement in IFS can be applied to measure the desired properties that satisfy the interface pressure/load requirement and the subject’s comfort.  Furthermore, the proposed methodology can improve the communication between physicians, patients, and fabricators on IFS prescription through the READ methodology.
