The effect of spatial alignment between proprioceptive and visual workspaces (co-location) has also been analysed. An experiment has been made to evaluate the influence of these factors in a controlled 3D environment based on a virtual version of the Simon game. The main conclusions obtained indicate that co-location must be considered in order to determine the sensory needs during interaction within a virtual environment. This study also provides further evidence that the haptic sensory modality influences presence to a higher extent, and that auditory cues can reduce selection times. Conclusions obtained provide initial guidelines that will help designers to set out better selection techniques for more complex environments, such as training simulators based on VR technology, by highlighting different optimal configurations of sensory feedback.},

abstract = {The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a Virtual Reality (VR)-simulated system in training fine motor skills that can be transferred to the performance of manual tasks in the real world. The VR system presented in this thesis enables training following fundamental methods such as part-task and whole-task training, in realistic simulations which are enhanced through haptic interaction. A fundamental advantage of using virtual reality in training is the ability to provide specific types of augmented feedback which cannot be provided in the real world.
The work presented in this thesis fits within the scope of ManuVAR (Manual work support throughout system lifecycle by exploiting Virtual and Augmented Reality), a European Union (EU) funded Seventh framework programme project which, among other things, aimed to support motor skill training in high value high knowledge manual work by using Virtual Reality technologies. A case study in industrial maintenance is presented: the metallographic replica, a nondestructive inspection technique that requires fine grinding and polishing of the inspected area. The motor skills required for the performance of these tasks must be particularly accurate. However, those motor skills consist of a tacit knowledge which is hard to transfer from experts to trainees.
This thesis focuses on the design and the evaluation of a VR training system which aims to supplement the motor skill training traditionally carried out for the performance of fine grinding and polishing tasks. The VR training system was designed on the basis of functional and customer requirement analyses which enabled defining the functionalities that allow solving the issues that arise when training in the real world.
Two experimental studies were designed to investigate whether a training program inspired by part-task and whole-task training methods, along with the provision of augmented feedback, enabled training the motor skills that are relevant for the performance of fine grinding and polishing tasks. The first experimental study explored the effectiveness of part-task training on the performance of a polishing task in a virtual environment. The second study evaluated the effectiveness of the complete training program for both tasks and investigated the capability of the VR training system to discriminate between several levels of expertise.
The outcomes of the experimental studies show the effectiveness of the training carried out on the VR training system, showing meaningful accuracy improvements throughout the performance of motor skills. This proves the internal validity of the proposed training. Moreover, the construct validity of the system is also suggested through the discrimination between expert and non-expert operators. On the basis of these findings, the external validity of the VR training system to train the fine motor skills that are relevant for the performance of fine grinding and polishing tasks in real operating environments can be established.
This work supports the hypothesis that VR enhanced with haptic force feedback can be useful for training fine motor skills, complementing the traditional training, which is carried out in real operating environments.},

abstract = {Mobile ad hoc networks are able to extend the coverage area of Internet access points by establishing multihop communication paths. Due to diverse factors such as the mobility of the nodes, the propagation conditions or the traffic status, the communication paths present a lifetime. In fact, the quality of the Internet connection mainly depends on the durability of the employed communication routes. In order to improve the network performance, the nodes should select the best route in terms of its remaining lifetime. Since the factors impacting the route lifetime are unpredictable, the route remaining lifetime cannot be analytically derived. Under these circumstances, a fuzzy-logic system outstands as a potential solution to estimate the stability of the routes. This paper analyses the potentiality of this kind of solution. In particular, the paper presents a fuzzy logic system which should be installed in the mobile nodes to distributedly identify the stable routes.

Mobile ad hoc networks are able to extend the coverage area of Internet access points by establishing multihop communication paths. Due to diverse factors such as the mobility of the nodes, the propagation conditions or the traffic status, the communication paths present a lifetime. In fact, the quality of the Internet connection mainly depends on the durability of the employed communication routes. In order to improve the network performance, the nodes should select the best route in terms of its remaining lifetime. Since the factors impacting the route lifetime are unpredictable, the route remaining lifetime cannot be analytically derived. Under these circumstances, a fuzzy-logic system outstands as a potential solution to estimate the stability of the routes. This paper analyses the potentiality of this kind of solution. In particular, the paper presents a fuzzy logic system which should be installed in the mobile nodes to distributedly identify the stable routes. In particular, the system is supported by an interval-based type-2 fuzzy logic. Being a type-2 fuzzy logic system, it is able to cope with inexact estimations. This ability is necessary to avoid the use of additional messages which will occupy the scarce wireless medium.

Interfaz cerebro-computadora: paradigmas de navegación basados en una tarea de imaginación motora PhD Thesis

abstract = {Una Interfaz Cerebro-Computadora o BCI (Brain-Computer Interface) es un
sistema que permite que las personas controlen un elemento externo por medio de su
actividad cerebral exclusivamente, sin necesidad de realizar movimientos musculares.
Hay varios métodos para detectar esta actividad cerebral, siendo los más utilizados son
los ‘no invasivos’, es decir, los que se basan en el contacto superficial de electrodos en
el cuero cabelludo. El procesado de las señales generadas como consecuencia de
pensamientos voluntarios, como en los sistemas BCI basados en ‘ritmos sensomotores’,
sugiere que cuando una zona del cerebro ligada a una tarea de movimiento se activa
para ejecutar el movimiento, las señales registradas cambian sus características. La
propiedad más significativa de estas señales es su comportamiento cuando una persona
imagina el movimiento sin llegar a ejecutarlo, pues se provoca un efecto similar.
Los investigadores en este área trabajan para desarrollar diferentes aplicaciones
que permitan mejorar la calidad de vida de pacientes con severas discapacidades, para
quienes un sistema BCI puede representar un canal viable para interactuar con su
entorno. Esta Tesis centrará la atención en las aplicaciones orientadas a la movilidad
con una silla de ruedas motorizada. Antes de que alguien pueda usar una silla de ruedas
en una situación real, es necesario garantizar que se tiene el control suficiente para
evitar situaciones de riesgo. La realidad virtual es una herramienta adecuada para
proporcionar a los sujetos la posibilidad de entrenar y probar la aplicación en un entorno
seguro, es por ello que en esta Tesis la mayoría de los experimentos se llevó a cabo en
entornos virtuales.
Para permitir el control de una silla de ruedas virtual, varios paradigmas han sido
propuestos, con diferentes interfaces de control y número de comandos de navegación.
Un mayor número de comandos facilita el control de la silla de ruedas; sin embargo, se
ha demostrado que la mejor precisión en la clasificación se consigue cuando sólo dos
tareas mentales son discriminadas. En el tipo de aplicaciones que se están refiriendo,
cuyo objetivo es el control de una silla de ruedas, un error en la clasificación de una
tarea mental (lo que puede llevar a un comando erróneo), puede provocar situaciones
peligrosas; por tanto, es crucial garantizar que se minimiza la tasa de error de modo que
se provea de la máxima seguridad posible al usuario. Por ello, en esta Tesis se desarrolla
un paradigma de control que permite el control de la navegación usando tres o cuatro
comandos, basándose el sistema en la clasificación de únicamente dos tareas mentales.
Entre los sistemas BCI orientados a navegación, muchos tienen la limitación de
ser ‘síncronos’, es decir, la temporización del control viene regulada por el propio
sistema, de modo que el sujeto sólo puede interactuar con el entorno en ciertos
momentos indicados por dicho sistema. La tendencia actual en la investigación es dejar
a los sujetos que controlen esa temporización, ya que supone un modo más natural de
interacción. Estos sistemas son llamados ‘asíncronos’.
El objetivo de esta Tesis es estudiar diferentes paradigmas de control de un
sistema BCI asíncrono orientado a la navegación (en entornos virtuales y reales) que
puedan ser usados para controlar finalmente una silla de ruedas. Se busca que el control
del sujeto sea en cualquier dirección posible, con tal de conseguir una navegación libre,
al tiempo que sólo se utilice una tarea de imaginación de movimiento (discriminada
frente al estado de reposo) para ejercer dicho control, garantizando de este modo un
menor error en la clasificación.},

momentos indicados por dicho sistema. La tendencia actual en la investigación es dejar
a los sujetos que controlen esa temporización, ya que supone un modo más natural de
interacción. Estos sistemas son llamados ‘asíncronos’.
El objetivo de esta Tesis es estudiar diferentes paradigmas de control de un
sistema BCI asíncrono orientado a la navegación (en entornos virtuales y reales) que
puedan ser usados para controlar finalmente una silla de ruedas. Se busca que el control
del sujeto sea en cualquier dirección posible, con tal de conseguir una navegación libre,
al tiempo que sólo se utilice una tarea de imaginación de movimiento (discriminada
frente al estado de reposo) para ejercer dicho control, garantizando de este modo un
menor error en la clasificación.
sistema que permite que las personas controlen un elemento externo por medio de su
actividad cerebral exclusivamente, sin necesidad de realizar movimientos musculares.
Hay varios métodos para detectar esta actividad cerebral, siendo los más utilizados son
los ‘no invasivos’, es decir, los que se basan en el contacto superficial de electrodos en
el cuero cabelludo. El procesado de las señales generadas como consecuencia de
pensamientos voluntarios, como en los sistemas BCI basados en ‘ritmos sensomotores’,
sugiere que cuando una zona del cerebro ligada a una tarea de movimiento se activa
para ejecutar el movimiento, las señales registradas cambian sus características. La
propiedad más significativa de estas señales es su comportamiento cuando una persona
imagina el movimiento sin llegar a ejecutarlo, pues se provoca un efecto similar.
Los investigadores en este área trabajan para desarrollar diferentes aplicaciones
que permitan mejorar la calidad de vida de pacientes con severas discapacidades, para
quienes un sistema BCI puede representar un canal viable para interactuar con su
entorno. Esta Tesis centrará la atención en las aplicaciones orientadas a la movilidad
con una silla de ruedas motorizada. Antes de que alguien pueda usar una silla de ruedas
en una situación real, es necesario garantizar que se tiene el control suficiente para
evitar situaciones de riesgo. La realidad virtual es una herramienta adecuada para
proporcionar a los sujetos la posibilidad de entrenar y probar la aplicación en un entorno
seguro, es por ello que en esta Tesis la mayoría de los experimentos se llevó a cabo en
entornos virtuales.
Para permitir el control de una silla de ruedas virtual, varios paradigmas han sido
propuestos, con diferentes interfaces de control y número de comandos de navegación.
Un mayor número de comandos facilita el control de la silla de ruedas; sin embargo, se
ha demostrado que la mejor precisión en la clasificación se consigue cuando sólo dos
tareas mentales son discriminadas. En el tipo de aplicaciones que se están refiriendo,
cuyo objetivo es el control de una silla de ruedas, un error en la clasificación de una
tarea mental (lo que puede llevar a un comando erróneo), puede provocar situaciones
peligrosas; por tanto, es crucial garantizar que se minimiza la tasa de error de modo que
se provea de la máxima seguridad posible al usuario. Por ello, en esta Tesis se desarrolla
un paradigma de control que permite el control de la navegación usando tres o cuatro
comandos, basándose el sistema en la clasificación de únicamente dos tareas mentales.
Entre los sistemas BCI orientados a navegación, muchos tienen la limitación de
ser ‘síncronos’, es decir, la temporización del control viene regulada por el propio
sistema, de modo que el sujeto sólo puede interactuar con el entorno en ciertos
momentos indicados por dicho sistema. La tendencia actual en la investigación es dejar
a los sujetos que controlen esa temporización, ya que supone un modo más natural de
