With this project, the control of a transfemoral prosthesis was developed by means of a neural network. The mechatronics methodology based on the V-model was used. This document first presents an analysis of the situation of physical-motor disabilities in Ecuador and reviews some prosthesis designs to propose a local solution. The requirements that were proposed, were used as inputs for the development of the conceptual and specific design. The data acquisition system was established to perform the measurements of muscle activity and position by means of an accelerometer. A neural network consisting of a 3-input layer with 12 neurons in the hidden layer and one neuron in the output layer was trained. The output of the network corresponds to the position that the prosthesis must reach, and the developed system has a 20% error in the prediction of the flexion and extension movements of the leg.

This paper proposes the geometry-based polylinal routing method as a solution for motion planning in object sorting exercises in manufacturing processes. This algorithm is based on geometric properties that arise from the interaction among objects within the configuration space. The method proposed in this paper, during its experimental phase, successfully generated smooth routes with a processing time ranging from 62.5-125 ms on a computer equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 2700X Eight-Core 3.70 GHz processor and 16 GB of RAM. When compared to the RRT algorithm, it exhibits a higher efficiency of 38% to 48%, resulting in a reduction in iterative processes and a shorter response time. Therefore, the proposed method presents a viable solution for addressing motion planning scenarios in object sorting exercises. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article "ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND PHILOSOPHY OF LAW" is a review of a collective work that compiles the papers presented at an international conference on artificial intelligence, robotics, and philosophy of law. The main objective of the work is to raise awareness about the challenges that jurists face in the face of technological development and to analyze the ethical and legal aspects of artificial intelligence. The book addresses different aspects of artificial intelligence and its relationship with human rights, ethics, robotics, and international law. The use of technology in the field of law, the need to establish ethical-legal principles, and the possible risks of excessive use of artificial intelligence in the legal sector are also discussed. The importance of establishing a global ethics when developing artificial intelligence systems is highlighted. [Extracted from the article]

The greatest changes at a global level have produced various transformations in the different market areas, especially in distribution logistics. Through a bibliographic review on Last Mile Logistics (LML), the changes that have permeated this discipline from 2010 to date were analyzed, and what kind of topics or investigations have been developed around this topic. For this review, the Web of Science (WOS) database was used, analyzing the trend line of published research, taking into account four variables in the LML: year of publication, most cited articles, institutions and geography. The results show that the fourth industrial revolution with its elements of robotics and artificial intelligence, electronic commerce and its boom caused by covid 19, are the main elements that have helped the evolution of the LML in recent years.

Evidences the pathology of intelligent systems in today's world and the lack of human ethics, with examples that warn about it. Indicate how Artificial Intelligence will affect future jobs, and how it relates to culture and libraries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article seeks to determine the uses of artificial intelligence in the conduct of armed conflicts as a means, through autonomous or semi-autonomous weapons, and as a method, in decision-making in psychological military operations. Psychological military operations, hybrid conflicts, and the potential contribution of this technology in the current and future military scenarios are also taken into account. For this purpose, information was consulted in primary sources and the Delphi method was adapted to respond to six hypotheses and establish their influence and dependence. Among the conclusions, the contribution of artificial intelligence is established as an efficient tool in the conduct of armed conflicts, as a deterrent factor or as a factor of direct confrontation, and the importance of strengthening international law in the face of this technology.

This paper describes how educational communities perceive the stimulation of 21st-century skills in students. A quantitative approach was employed, following a descriptive non-experimental research design, with a sample of 692 subjects comprising teachers, students, and parents and guardians. The results reveal a perceived lack of stimulation of digital skills like robotics, electronics, and the development of mobile applications; social skills like taking a rights-based or gender-based approach; emotional skills like self-care and resilience; and cognitive skills like creative and computational thinking. In conclusion, educational communities exhibit only a moderate perception of the stimulation of 21st-century skills, which demonstrates a need to strengthen initiatives to promote these skills in the education system.

Over the last decade, optimization of a massive set of industrial tasks has been achieved by taking advantage of repeatability and precision of robotic arms. While the new era of robotic arms introduces high-tech tools to fix positioning and tracking issues, upgrading older units is a significant challenge due to hardware incompatibilities, outdated mechanisms, and operation restrictions. This work introduces a new visual system to determine the position of a robotic arm using a two-stereo-cameras array. The visual-positioning system estimates the position of the end-effector using an inverse model of the robot and the full point cloud acquired with the stereo cameras. An Iterative Point Cloud algorithm merges the partial point clouds of each depth sensor, and with a yellow color detector, the algorithm extracts the Region of Interest (ROI). Experimental results show that the proposed device can estimate the relative position of the end-effector with respect to the robotic arm base with errors in the longitudinal, lateral, and vertical positions of around 19.6%, 15.7% and 9.2%, respectively.

Introduction: conventional therapy has been shown to be effective in treating stroke patients, but its techniques are sometimes monotonous, reducing patient adherence. In recent years, technologies have been developed that provide these patients with key elements of an adequate neurorehabilitation program, such as robotic systems for gait reeducation. The aim of the present work is to compare the effects of robotic therapy and conventional therapy in gait reeducation in stroke patients. Material and method: a search was carried out in the Pubmed and Medline databases using the MeSH term “Robotics” and the keywords “physical therapy modalities”, “stroke” and “gait”. Randomized clinical trial, published in the last five years in Spanish, English, French, Italian or Portuguese were included whose sample consisted of stroke patients and whose intervention made a comparison between robotic therapy and conventional therapy. Results: the search strategy yielded a total of 39 results of which a total of 8 randomized clinical trials were included in this review. The devices analyzed are the Lokomat, used in 4 of the studies. Devices such as Gait Exercise Assist Robot, Stride Management Assist, i-Walker, and Robowalk have been used in the remaining studies. Conclusion: the application of robotic therapy can be a useful support in the rehabilitation of people with stroke for the recovery of functionality while walking, but no real and superior efficacy compared to conventional therapy has been demonstrated.

The growing social acceptance of euthanasia contrasts with the opinion of the medical profession that, although it enjoys certain guarantees in the LORE, its deontological code may be altered if the National Health System transforms the human relationship between doctor-patient into a relationship, increasingly expansive, of a technological nature. The complexity of the evaluation of the euthanasia context and the strong animosity of the medical profession towards the application of euthanasia, cannot serve as a criterion to promote the robotization of a healthcare whose principles are respect for human life, the dignity of person and the health care of the individual and the community. This paper presents a critical analysis of the hypothesis of the application of new technologies that could replace individual conscientious objection and that of the medical profession regarding euthanasia.

The incorporation of the students with autism spectrum disorder in the ordinary schools has meant an advance in the educational inclusion. We intend to analyze the possibilities that social robotics may provide in educational interventions with these students. The method used is the case study in which we try to give a qualitative description of a very particular situation in a very diverse and heterogeneous reality. The incorporation of the social robot in the educational process of an ASD student, has developed the interaction in a gaming context just as the acquisition of contents. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

It is expected that in the near future robots will be increasingly involved in social roles, however, understanding how students learn empathic skills, and how technology can support this process, is an important but under-researched area in artificial intelligence. This paper analyzes the factors that contribute to the development of empathy from early childhood and the variables of robotic empathy that could help promote this learning. It has been found that social emotional artificial intelligence (SEAI) has already successfully implemented some of the human mechanisms of empathy that are present during the first years of life. The current state of SEAI research is far from achieving full empathic capacity, but it can provide useful tools to promote empathic skills, the basis of social cooperation and ethical and prosocial behavior, from childhood.

The demand for a more scientifically focused education places educational robotics as an important element for the development of STEAM areas. This work presents a review of the literature, following the parameters of the PRISMA Declaration, with the aim of characterizing the scientific production related to the use of robotics from those STEAM areas in Early Childhood Education. A search was carried out in international databases (WOS, Scopus and Eric) and in the Dialnet bibliographic portal. 276 studies on the subject were identified. After applying the eligibility criteria, 36 studies have been selected. The results show that more than half of the studies (54%) are experimental, developing 89% in the school environment. Only 19.4% of the works develop purely STEAM projects, commercial robotics being the predominant use. There are no evidence of differences in the access and development of skills due to gender. Computational thinking is presented as a necessary skill that can be developed from early levels. The conclusions help generate specific information on the use of educational robotics, allowing the educational community to show the progress of current scientific production in this area.

Electromyography is a test widely used in the study of the electrical activity of muscles and nerves usually for medical purposes to measure the health of muscles and nerves in patients, however, the similarity of the signals generated in this study with those used in robotics in control systems, has opened the possibility of using them to bio-medical applications. This paper article presents a prototype for the control of a palletiser with one degree of freedom through EMG signals, the prototype was designed by digital electronics and allows the control of the palletiser in real time. The design is modular and consists of the following modules: acquisition and filtering; Processing and digital electronic decision system and, finally, the control-power interface that allows Human-machine interaction in a friendly way. The filtering and processing of EMG signals reduces the experimental noise by allowing a pattern to be established in the power signals. It achieves a robust control system that operates in real time by the effective value of power and in addition, the Human machine interface helps in the interpretation of control variables. Finally, the incorporation of reliable and efficient control systems based on EMG signals and digital electronics, allows exploring a viable alternative for the development of bio-medical and robotics prototypes such as the control of robotic arms in real time.
