Neuro-Rehabilitation Therapy with T-FLEX Ankle Exoskeleton and Serious Games: A Case Study.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Sep 1, 2023
Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) causes permanent disabilities, such as foot drop. This condition affects the gait pattern, increasing the metabolic cost and risk of falling. Robotics with serious games has shown promising results in the gait rehabilitati...
A Novel Evaluation Index and Optimization Method for Ankle Rehabilitation Robots Based on Ankle-Foot Motion.
Journal of biomechanical engineering
May 1, 2023
The ability of ankle rehabilitation robots to accurately mimicking the actual human ankle motion is an important judgment basis for robot-assisted rehabilitation training. This paper proposes an evaluation index and mechanism parameter optimization m...
Ankle rehabilitation robot training for stroke patients with foot drop: Optimizing intensity and frequency.
NeuroRehabilitation
Jan 1, 2023
BACKGROUND: Robotic solutions for ankle joint physical therapy have extensively been researched. The optimal frequency and intensity of training for patients when using the ankle robot is not known which can affect rehabilitation outcome.
Mirror-Based Robotic Therapy for Ankle Recovery with a Serious Game: A Case Study with a Neurological Patient.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jul 1, 2022
Neuromuscular disorders, such as foot drop, severely affect the locomotor function and walking independence after a brain injury event. Mirror-based robotic therapy (MRT) has been a promising rehabilitation strategy favouring upper limb muscle streng...
Analysis and control of biped robot with variable stiffness ankle joints.
Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
Jan 1, 2020
BACKGROUND: Biped robot locomotion is an active topic of research, and the walking stability is one of the research objectives.
Optimized Design of a Variable Viscosity Link for Robotic AFO.
Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Jul 1, 2019
Herein we present the development of a novel Ankle Foot Orthosis for gait support of people with foot-drop symptoms. The developed AFO uses an elastic link mechanism to brake the ankle joint during initial contact, thus mitigating foot-slap, and an i...
Robust Optimal Design of Energy Efficient Series Elastic Actuators: Application to a Powered Prosthetic Ankle.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jun 1, 2019
Design of rehabilitation and physical assistance robots that work safely and efficiently despite uncertain operational conditions remains an important challenge. Current methods for the design of energy efficient series elastic actuators use an optim...
Bio-inspired design and validation of the Efficient Lockable Spring Ankle (ELSA) prosthesis.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jun 1, 2019
Over the last decade, active lower-limb prostheses demonstrated their ability to restore a physiological gait for transfemoral amputees by supplying the required positive energy balance during daily life locomotion activities. However, the added-valu...
Effect of reducing assistance during robot-assisted gait training on step length asymmetry in patients with hemiplegic stroke: A randomized controlled pilot trial.
Medicine
Aug 1, 2018
BACKGROUND: An assist-as-needed robot-assisted gait training protocol was recently developed. It allows active movement during training, but its exact criteria remain unknown. Asymmetric step length is a common abnormal gait pattern in hemiplegic str...
A Soft Wearable Robotic Suit for Ankle and Hip Assistance: a Preliminary Study.
Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Jul 1, 2018
As a walking assistive device, one of major goals should be reduce wearer's metabolic cost as much as possible. Toward this goal, this paper presents the preliminary study on a new soft wearable robotic suit for ankle and hip assistance for daily lif...
