The H2 robotic exoskeleton for gait rehabilitation after stroke: early findings from a clinical study.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Jun 17, 2015
BACKGROUND: Stroke significantly affects thousands of individuals annually, leading to considerable physical impairment and functional disability. Gait is one of the most important activities of daily living affected in stroke survivors. Recent techn...
Using swing resistance and assistance to improve gait symmetry in individuals post-stroke.
Human movement science
Jun 10, 2015
A major characteristic of hemiplegic gait observed in individuals post-stroke is spatial and temporal asymmetry, which may increase energy expenditure and the risk of falls. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of swing resistance/ass...
Dexterous robotic manipulation of alert adult Drosophila for high-content experimentation.
Nature methods
May 25, 2015
We present a robot that enables high-content studies of alert adult Drosophila by combining operations including gentle picking; translations and rotations; characterizations of fly phenotypes and behaviors; microdissection; or release. To illustrate...
Evaluation by Expert Dancers of a Robot That Performs Partnered Stepping via Haptic Interaction.
PloS one
May 20, 2015
Our long-term goal is to enable a robot to engage in partner dance for use in rehabilitation therapy, assessment, diagnosis, and scientific investigations of two-person whole-body motor coordination. Partner dance has been shown to improve balance an...
Design of a novel telerehabilitation system with a force-sensing mechanism.
Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
May 19, 2015
Many stroke patients are expected to rehabilitate at home, which limits their access to proper rehabilitation equipment, treatment, or assessment by therapists. We have developed a novel telerehabilitation system that incorporates a human-upper-limb-...
Once-per-step control of ankle-foot prosthesis push-off work reduces effort associated with balance during walking.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
May 1, 2015
BACKGROUND: Individuals with below-knee amputation have more difficulty balancing during walking, yet few studies have explored balance enhancement through active prosthesis control. We previously used a dynamical model to show that prosthetic ankle ...
Robotic and clinical evaluation of upper limb motor performance in patients with Friedreich's Ataxia: an observational study.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Apr 23, 2015
BACKGROUND: Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA) is the most common hereditary autosomal recessive form of ataxia. In this disease there is early manifestation of gait ataxia, and dysmetria of the arms and legs which causes impairment in daily activities that ...
Monitoring Neuro-Motor Recovery From Stroke With High-Resolution EEG, Robotics and Virtual Reality: A Proof of Concept.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Apr 22, 2015
A novel system for the neuro-motor rehabilitation of upper limbs was validated in three sub-acute post-stroke patients. The system permits synchronized cortical and kinematic measures by integrating high-resolution EEG, passive robotic device and Vir...

Upper-limb kinematic reconstruction during stroke robot-aided therapy.
Medical & biological engineering & computing
Apr 11, 2015
The paper proposes a novel method for an accurate and unobtrusive reconstruction of the upper-limb kinematics of stroke patients during robot-aided rehabilitation tasks with end-effector machines. The method is based on a robust analytic procedure fo...
What is it like to walk with the help of a robot? Children's perspectives on robotic gait training technology.
Disability and rehabilitation
Apr 9, 2015
PURPOSE: Robotic gait training is an emerging intervention that holds great therapeutic promise in the rehabilitation of children with neuromotor disorders such as cerebral palsy (CP). Little is known about children and parents' views on this new tec...
