In this paper, a nondeterministic random number generator based on detection of the single photons emitted by an Si-CMOS-LED light source integrated for the first time on the detector chip is presented and experimentally demonstrated.We use a ring-shaped single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) around the Si-CMOS-LED fabricated in 0.35-μm HV-CMO
A Novel Functional Electrical Stimulation-Induced Cycling Controller Using Reinforcement Learning to Optimize Online Muscle Activation Pattern
This study introduces a novel controller based on a Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithm for real-time adaptation of the stimulation pattern during FES-cycling.Core to our approach is the introduction of an RL agent that interacts ELP IM Combo Modules with the cycling environment and learns through trial and error how to modulate the electrical ch
Advances in retinal prosthesis systems
Retinal prosthesis systems have undergone significant advances in the past Pet Care quarter century, resulting in the development of several different novel surgical and engineering approaches.Encouraging results have demonstrated partial visual restoration, with improvement in both coarse objective function and performance of everyday tasks.To dat
Reaching to inhibit a prepotent response: A wearable 3-axis accelerometer kinematic analysis.
The present work Sparkle Dust explores the distinctive contribution of motor planning and control to human reaching movements.In particular, the movements were triggered by the selection of a prepotent response (Dominant) or, instead, by the inhibition of the prepotent response, which required the selection of an alternative one (Non-dominant).To t
