Investigations on the design of haptic (force reflecting joystick or force display) controllers were conducted by viewing the display of force information within the context of several different paradigms. First, using analogies from electrical and mechanical systems, certain schemes of the haptic interface were hypothesized which may improve the human-machine interaction with respect to various criteria. A discussion is given on how this interaction benefits the electrical and mechanical system. To generalize this concept to the design of human-machine interfaces, three studies with haptic mechanisms were then synthesized and analyzed.

Background: Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) evaluates lung function by providing continuous, real-time monitoring of regional lung ventilation distribution to guide the restoration of lung ventilation. Patients with obesity who are dependent on mechanical ventilation often struggle with weaning. This case report highlights the potential of EIT to guide the weaning of ventilator-dependent patients in an obese patient with severe pneumonia.

In neuroscience, accurately correlating brain activity with stimuli and other events requires precise synchronization between neural data and event timing. To achieve this, purpose-built synchronization devices are often used to detect events. This paper introduces SyncGenie, a programmable synchronization device designed for a range of uses in neuroscience research-primarily as a "trigger box" to align neurophysiological data with physical stimulus events, among other possibilities.

Rehabilitation assessments hold an irreplaceable role in the field of rehabilitative therapy. However, due to the subjectivity of traditional physicians and the variability of patient conditions, this leads to a lack of detailed grading and inaccurate assessment results. To address this issue, we developed an upper limb rehabilitation evaluation model.
