Trajectory planning and mechanic's analysis of lower limb rehabilitation robot.

Bio-medical materials and engineering
A new rehabilitation robot was designed. The robot included a suspension mechanism, a drive unit, and an adjustment mechanism. Additionally, innovative weight loss mechanism increased the dynamical device so that it could be used with patients of var...

Improved walking ability with wearable robot-assisted training in patients suffering chronic stroke.

Bio-medical materials and engineering
Wearable robotic devices provide safe and intensive rehabilitation, enabling repeated motions for motor function recovery in stroke patients. The aim of this small case series was to demonstrate the training effects of a three-week robotic leg orthos...

Modulation of grasping force in prosthetic hands using neural network-based predictive control.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.)
This chapter describes the implementation of a neural network-based predictive control system for driving a prosthetic hand. Nonlinearities associated with the electromechanical aspects of prosthetic devices present great challenges for precise contr...
