Many automakers use torque vectoring to shift torque between the wheel or wheels that need traction the most. In spirited driving, the system can improve handling by helping rotate the vehicle and get ...

Scientists develop an innovative device to help older individuals train their posture control, minimizing the risk of falls and associated injuries. Balance training using a wearable device to improve ...

(Left) Pneumatic artificial muscles in the wearable device generate small disturbances. By holding a posture against these disturbances, a user can improve their reactive postural control. (Right) ...

Demonstration of the robotic prosthetic ankle. Electromyographic sensors (on calf at left) capture electrical activity generated by muscles when they are flexed. This signal tells the prosthesis which ...

Rapid side-to-side eye movements can help stabilize posture, avoid falls and maintain balance for people with Parkinson's disease, just as they can for healthy people. This seemingly counterintuitive ...

The modern workplace has transformed human bodies in ways our ancestors could never have imagined. As millions spend their days hunched over keyboards, necks craned toward screens, and bodies folded ...
