ABSTRACT
This paper presents a brief account of the development of the SMART-HexBot, a novel Simulation, Modeling, Analysis and Research Tool for Hexapod Robot in Virtual Reality and Simulink® for assisting the mechanical system as well as the control system design and validation of a hexapod robot. The elegant and user-friendly features of Simulink, SimMechanics, Stateflow, and Virtual reality toolbox of Matlab® have rendered the SMART-HexBot simulation tool a useful and effective means for the design and validation of the kinematic and dynamics of the mechanism and locomotion control of hexapod walking robot. Effectiveness of the SMART-HexBot has been established by simulation results.

The Gait Analysis About the Elder Fall Risk
ICINIS '12: Proceedings of the 2012 Fifth International Conference on Intelligent Networks and Intelligent SystemsThe causes analyzing for the falls is given in order to improve the quality of life of older persons, and reduce the incidence of elder falls. Then the appropriate and effective intervention for the elder are given. The fall over themselves and the ...
Modeling and simulation of walking robots with 3 dof legs
MIC'06: Proceedings of the 25th IASTED international conference on Modeling, indentification, and controlThis paper describes a simulation model for a multilegged locomotion system with 3 dof legs and leg joint actuators having saturation. For that objective the robot prescribed motion is characterized in terms of several locomotion variables. Moreover, ...
Proteus effect or bodily affordance? The influence of virtual high-heels on gait behavior
AbstractShoes are an important part of the fashion industry, stereotypically affect our self-awareness as well as external perception, and can even biomechanically modify our gait pattern. Immersive Virtual Reality (VR) enables users not only to explore ...
