Sensor technology is expected to help amputees resume activities

    [China Instrument Network Instrument Development] An international team released a new report that, thanks to the sensor technology they developed, the mechanical prosthesis can detect the electrical signals sent by the user's spinal motor neurons, making the control of the prosthesis more flexible. This is equivalent to Use your mind to control the prosthesis. The technology is expected to help amputees recover more activities.

    Most mechanical prosthetic products on the market today rely on the user twitching the muscles of the shoulders or arms. This control method has a poor user experience and limited functionality, and can only perform one or two simple grasping action instructions.

    The paper published in the new issue of the UK's "Natural and Biomedical Engineering" explains that researchers from research institutes in the United Kingdom, the United States, and Austria have developed a new sensor to allow mechanical prostheses to directly detect spinal cord movements. The electrical signals sent by the neurons are more precise than the ones that rely solely on muscle twitches to control, the actions that can be performed are more complex, and the practicality of the mechanical prosthesis increases.

    The team involved 6 volunteers in the test. They either began to be amputated from the shoulder or were amputated from above the elbow. For better testing, volunteers underwent surgery and some of their peripheral nervous system was readjusted and connected to healthy muscles. After a certain amount of training, volunteers only need to imagine that they need to move their arms to do different actions. The sensor on the prosthesis can receive and analyze the electrical signals, and then issue commands to control and complete the movement of the prosthetic elbow, swing the prosthetic wrist Movements such as opening and closing palms can accomplish most of the basic functions of a real arm.

    One of the authors of the report, Professor Dario Farrina of Imperial College in the United Kingdom, said that the new technology will focus on the nervous system rather than the muscles, which means that the use of sensors can detect and analyze the relevant signals more clearly, which can make the machinery Prosthetics are more intuitive to use and more useful to the disabled.

    The team will next conduct a wider range of clinical tests on this new type of mechanical prosthesis. After continuous improvement, such products are expected to enter the market in the next three years.

    Cement Grinding Aids

    Cement grinding aid is a kind of chemical additives can improve cement grinding effect and performance, can significantly improve the cement production, every period cement strength, were to improve its liquidity.Cement grinding aid can greatly reduce the grinding ball phenomenon formed in the process of electrostatic adsorption package, and can reduce the grinding of ultrafine particles in the process of coalescence trend again.Cement grinding aid can significantly improve the liquidity of cement and improve the mill grinding effect and efficiency of classifier choose powder, so as to reduce the energy consumption of grinding.Using grinding agent in the production of cement with a low compaction trend of coalescence, which benefits the loading and unloading of cement, and can reduce the phenomenon of wall hanging cement silo.As a kind of chemical additives, grinding agent can improve the cement particle distribution and hydration, so as to improve the early strength cement and later strength.
