Dissemination of the latest results from our AugmentedWearEdu project
Today, Professor Tomas Blažauskas gave a talk to disseminate the latest results from our AugmentedWearEdu project. It was a pleasure to participate to the event organised by Vida Drąsutė at Kaunas University of Technology, Lithuania. This research is funded by the European Union through the Erasmus+ Program under Grant 2020-1-NO01-KA203-076540, project title Integrating virtual and AUGMENTED reality with WEARable technology into engineering EDUcation (AugmentedWearEdu), https://augmentedwear

Best Oral Presentation at Session Robots and Artificial Intelligence, ICICT22
I am very glad to announce that our work titled "Mixed reality (MR) Enabled Proprio and Teleoperation of a Humanoid Robot for Paraplegic Patients" has won the Best Oral Presentation at Session 5 "Robots and Artificial Intelligence" at the 5th International Conference on Information and Computer Technologies (ICICT), New York City (virtual), United States, March 4-6, 2022. The awarded paper is: Filippo Sanfilippo, Jesper Smith, Sylvain Bertrand and Tor Halvard Skarberg Svendsen. Mixed reality (M
A Game-based Learning Framework for Controlling Brain-Actuated Wheelchairs
Paraplegia is a disability caused by impairment in motor or sensory functions of the lower limbs. Most paraplegic subjects use mechanical wheelchairs for their movement, however, patients with reduced upper limb functionality may benefit from the use of motorised, electric wheelchairs. Depending on the patient, learning how to control these wheelchairs can be hard (if at all possible), time-consuming, demotivating, and to some extent dangerous. This paper proposes a game-based learning framework
On Usage of EEG Brain Control for Rehabilitation of Stroke Patients
This paper demonstrates rapid prototyping of a stroke rehabilitation system consisting of an interactive 3D virtual reality computer game environment interfaced with an EEG headset for control and interaction using brain waves. The system is intended for training and rehabilitation of partially monoplegic stroke patients and uses low- cost commercial-off-the-shelf products like the Emotiv EPOC EEG headset and the Unity 3D game engine. A number of rehabilitation methods exist that can improve mo
