Amongst the major challenges in post-stroke rehabilitation are the repetitiveness nature of rehabilitation procedure, and the accessibility of therapists for long-term treatment. In manual rehabilitation procedure, the patient is subjected to repetitive mechanical movement of the affected limb by the therapist. In one of the techniques called activ

Normally, humans were born with five fingers connected to each of the hands. These fingers have their own specific role that contributes to different hand functions. Among the five fingers, the thumb plays the most special function as an anchor to many of hand activities such as turning a key, gripping a ball and holding a spoon for eating. As a re

The paper presents a real-time affective state detection namely the engagement level detection by using fuzzy classifier that can be applied to human-robot interaction. In order to develop the fuzzy classifier, the engagement model is developed using the data collected from a controlled design experiment. In the experiment, the data collected are f

حصلت إندونيسيا على شهرتها في مؤتمر باندونغ، ولمع نجمها في عهد سوكارنو البطل القومي الذي وقف إلى جانب جمال عبد الناصر في خندق دول عدم الانحياز؛ ولكن ضخامتها السكانية وعلو كعب المسلمين فيها رفع�

This research is an attempt to study the process of election in the spectrum of formal democracy within the Islamic polity in relation to the current democratic revolutions in the Middle East and North Africa. The objective of this research is to comprehensively assess the process of election and democratic compatibility with Islamic norms within t

Limb loss is a growing problem in Malaysia and the rest of the world due to the increasing number of industrial accidents, diseases and armed conflicts. After a tragic incident resulting in an amputation or paralysis, the disabled individual needs to be assisted with all possible technological means to improve his quality of life. A cybernetic pros

High quality ZnO thin films are required to produce CMOS SAW resonators operating with low losses and high Q. This work intends to develop high performance CMOS SAW resonators through optimization of both the quality of the ZnO and the design of the SAW resonator. Zinc oxide was chosen for this work as the piezoelectric material due to its superior

In this paper, a person identification mechanism implemented with Cardioid based graph using electrocardiogram (ECG) is presented. Cardioid based graph has given a reasonably good classification accuracy in terms of differentiating between individuals. However, the current feature extraction method using Euclidean distance could be further improved

This paper demonstrates subject recognition using electrocardiogram (ECG) signal in different physiological conditions. A total of 30 subjects used in this study were obtained from a non-invasive measurement called the Revitus ECG module. Each subject performed six physiological activities which are walking, going upstairs, going downstairs, natura

Upper limb amputation that includes finger amputation is increasing every year due to accidents, diseases and congenital amputation. The loss of finger especially thumb could limit the proper hand functions and thus affect human daily activities. As a solution, a prosthetic thumb can be worn as a replacement to the real thumb. Natural controlled of
