Abstract
A successful rehabilitation after surgery in hip endoprosthetics comprises self-training of the lessons taught by physiotherapists. While doing this, immediate feedback to the patient about deviations from physiological gait patterns during training is important. Such immediate feedback also concerns the correct usage of forearm crutches in three-point gait. In the project ROGER, a mobile Socially Assistive Robot (SAR) to support patients after surgery in hip endoprosthetics is going to be developed. The current implementation status of the robotic application developed for the use in a real-world scenario is presented below.
