BioRob - Somnomat: A Novel Device to investigate the influence of vestibular stimulation on sleep
5th IEEE RAS EMBS International Conference on Biomedical Robotics and Biomechatronics, 2014Co-Authors: Francesco Crivelli, Lorenz Heinicke, Ximena Omlin, Robert RienerAbstract:Sleep disorders affect about one third of the general population. Rocking movements may help to shorten sleep onset latency and enhance sleep quality. However, from a scientific point of view, the relation between vestibular stimulation and sleep remains unclear. This paper presents a Novel Device to investigate the influence of vestibular stimulation on sleeping human subjects. The developed Device includes two actuated bed platforms allowing to provide adjustable rocking motion along five different movement axes: three translations along the longitudinal, lateral, and vertical body axes, and two swing-like rotations along longitudinal and lateral direction. The robotic platforms have been designed in order to fulfil the special requirements of sleep research. Rocking trajectories with linear velocity below 15 cm/s ensure smooth, confortable, and quiet conditions (L eq < 40 dBA) for all the five axes. The presented approach will allow to systematically investigate the influence of different kinds of rocking movement on human sleep.

A Novel Device for Fixing Small Objects using Through-Pore Porous Silicon
TRANSDUCERS 2007 - 2007 International Solid-State Sensors Actuators and Microsystems Conference, 2007Co-Authors: Atsuko Kato, Atsushi Uchiumi, Masanori HayaseAbstract:A Novel Device that enables fixing small objects at a specified point on a Si substrate was developed. It will be useful if cell or other small objects can be fixed in a row on a chip and drug dosage to the each object can be controlled. By arranging objects in a row, observation will become easy and quick. Amount of drug usage is also expected to be reduced. It is known that mono crystalline Si becomes porous by anodization in a HF solution and through-pore porous Si region can be formed. By making the through-pore porous region on a specified area, objects can be fixed on the specified area by vacuum suction from the back side of the chip. In this study, patterned through-pore porous Si areas were made on a Si chip. It was observed that a polystyrene bead was fixed on a through-pore porous area of 7μm &; 7μm.
