Movement-dependent stabilization support system

The present invention relates to a movement-dependent stabilisation support system (100) for stabilising a moving body (200), which comprises a plurality of sensors (110), a plurality of actuators (120) and a control unit (130). The plurality of sensors (110) continuously detects movement parameters of the body (200), on which basis the control unit (130) determines whether there is an instability of the body (200). If it is determined that there is an instability, the control unit (130) selects a stabilisation strategy, according to which the actuators (120) are controlled. When controlled, the actuators (120) attached to the body (200) stiffen and limit the freedom of movement of the body (200), such that a movement in the direction of the imminent unstable state is prevented or suppressed. In this way, the body (200) is supported in its stabilisation and an imminent fall is prevented.

Rehabilitation training system and rehabilitation training evaluation program

The rehabilitation training system includes: an evaluation unit configured to evaluate rehabilitation training performed by a trainee; a storage unit configured to store a plurality of evaluation comments regarding the evaluation; a reception unit configured to receive, from an authorized training assistant, designation of an evaluation comment that is restricted from being presented to a specific trainee among the plurality of evaluation comments; a selection unit configured to select an evaluation comment to be presented to the specific trainee from the plurality of evaluation comments based on the evaluation for the rehabilitation training of the specific trainee that is performed by the evaluation unit and the designation; and a presentation unit configured to present the evaluation comment selected by the selection unit.

Defibrillation system for self-driving vehicles

A defibrillation system may include a cardiac arrest detector detecting whether cardiac arrest of a passenger has occurred in a state of taking a seat of a self-driving vehicle and fastening a seatbelt of the vehicle; a passenger posture detection device detecting a posture of the passenger; a seat driving device changing the posture of the passenger into another posture in which the passenger lies down based on a detection signal of the passenger posture detection device when the cardiac arrest of the passenger occurs; a heart position detector configured to search for a position of a heart of the passenger; a defibrillation robot to perform a CPR method or a method using an AED on the heart of the passenger; and a controller controlling operation of the seat driving device, the heart position detector, and the defibrillation robot based on detection signals of the cardiac arrest detector and the passenger posture detection device.

Wearable apparatus for assisting muscular strength

A wearable apparatus for assisting muscular strength includes a back support, and a connection chain having a first end portion coupled to the back support to be rotatable upward or downward. The connection chain extends from the back of the wearer to a side thereof and includes a plurality of rotary elements arranged abreast laterally, each rotary element being rotatably coupled to an adjacent rotary element laterally. The wearable apparatus further includes an upper arm module that extends in a direction in which an upper arm of the wearer extends, one end portion of the upper arm module coupled to a second end portion of the connection chain to be rotatable upward or downward with respect to the one end portion. The upper arm module generates a rotational force for rotating the upper arm of the wearer upward or downward.
