Abstract: An apparatus for positioning a strap around an object includes a handle for being grasped by a user of the apparatus. The apparatus further includes an arm portion having a first end coupled to the handle portion and an opposite second end having a coupling mechanism coupled at or nearby for selectively coupling a portion of the strap to the second end of the arm portion. When the handle portion is grasped by the user of the apparatus adjacent a side of the object the arm portion is sized and configured to be movable among: a first positioning wherein the arm portion extends outward from the handle and the user such that the second end of the arm portion extends a distance beyond a far side of the object, and a second positioning wherein the arm portion wraps at least partially around the object.

Abstract: A reaching and grabbing assist device is provided having a reaching extension for aid in reaching out of distance objects. The distal terminus of the extension has an articulating grapnel that may be angularly positioned about the lateral centerline of the shaft. A support strip on the user's wrist allows total control without the risk of the device falling out of one's grasp or reach. Made of a hard outer casing, the shaft may allow internal rigging to connect the articulating grapnel to controls at the handle. The instant abstract is neither intended to define the invention disclosed in this specification nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.

Abstract: A bending mechanism includes: an elongated support member; a swivel that is pivotably connected to a distal end of the support member; a first link that can transmit a driving force applied at the proximal end, to make the swivel pivot with respect to the support member; a second link that can transmit a driving force applied at the proximal end, to make the swivel pivot with respect to the support member; and a connector that is provided on at least one of the first and second links and that can switch the coupled state of one of the first and second links when a pivoting angle of the swivel exceeds a threshold such that the permissible stress of the one of the links has become less than the permissible stress of the other.

Abstract: Techniques for providing feedback during manual joint positioning include a computer-assisted device comprising an articulated structure comprising a joint and a brake associated with the joint and a control unit coupled to the articulated structure. To provide feedback during manual positioning of the joint due to manual force applied by an operator, the control unit is configured to determine a target position for the joint, determine kinematics of the joint relative to the target position, lock the joint when the joint is at the target position, release the brake when the kinematics of the joint indicate that the joint is moving towards the target position, and apply the brake when the kinematics of the joint indicate that the joint is moving away from the target position.

Abstract: The present invention relates to devices and methods for controlled motion of a tool. In one embodiment, the device can support a tool needed to perform an activity requiring a highly-precise, stable motion, while also accommodating a person's hand for the purposes of moving the tool. In another embodiment, the device of the present invention allows for rotational motion of a tool independently of the directive motion of the tool. In yet another embodiment, the present invention relates to the design of a force transducer useful in a cooperative robot. The device and methods of the present invention are particularly useful for microsurgery or other tasks that are typically performed using cooperative robotics.

Abstract: A reach extending tool includes a grasping section at one end of a tubular body opposite a handle end of the reach extending tool. The grasping section includes a pair of grasping extensions that can be used to grasp and object, including any one of several accessories that are configured to mechanically interface with the grasping extensions. The length between the handle and the grasping section can by adjusted by partially folding the body at an elbow joint.
