Deaths due to heart diseases are a leading cause of death in Mexico. Cardiovascular diseases are considered a public health problem because they produce cardiorespiratory arrests. During an arrest, cardiac and/or respiratory activity stops. A cardiorespiratory arrest is rapidly fatal without a quick and efficient intervention. As a response to this problem, the Virtual

This paper presents the development of a wrist rehabilitation system with a novel approach for structural design, based on the modeling of an optimization problem solved by a metaheuristic algorithm, Improved Harmony Search (ImHS). It is part of a project for developing low-cost rehabilitation systems expressly designed for the population of Latin American countries. A mixed optimization problem is modeled for the design, where the material type is associated with an integer variable and the dimensions of the components are continuous parameters. The novelty is that each element is calculated individually, but considering the combined effect over the structure. The optimization works simultaneously on both the material selection and the meeting of the associated constraints, to guarantee that the system will not fail because of any load, neither it will be unsafe for the patients, since the operation will always be within the limits considered in the modeling. ImHS is a variant of the Harmony Search algorithm, modified to enhance the exploration and exploitation processes. It is a simple yet powerful metaheuristic, implemented in this development with additional modifications to handle constraints and mixed variables. The proposed approach produced quality results, indicating that ImHS can be applied to solve complex engineering problems, facilitating the manufacture and control processes.

Brain Computer Interfaces (BCI) have emerged as a solid, though promising yet incipient, mechanism to communicate simple and abstract high-level electroencephalography (EEG) commands by decoding brain rhythms. When BCI are used for online commands of a kinematic or dynamic external agent, either real or virtual ones, human perceives the task with different attributes, thus different brain regions are activated depending on the characteristic of the perceptual task and the cognitive process involved. Hence, there arises the question on how the perceived kinematic or dynamic task attributes affects the ability of human to produce a BCI command. In this paper, a Brain Computer Robot Interface (BCRI) is proposed, which contains as a core element a BCI to decode commands for a dynamical external agent, such as a robot. To convey the attributes of a dynamic perceptual task, advanced tools of dynamics and control of robots are borrowed to integrate the BCRI, complying with real time constraints and behaviors. Experimental results shows that the ability to generate BCI commands is due to a lower user frustration, which is obtained when the perceptual task matches the dynamic attributes exhibited by a dynamic robot. In contrast, when the robot behaves with kinematic attributes only, high frustration impedes the generation of BCI commands.
