OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study is to systematically review the effects of leg-driven treadmill-based exoskeleton robot training on balance and walking ability in poststroke patients.
BACKGROUND: Robotic rehabilitation is a commonly adopted technique used to restore motor functionality of neurological patients. However, despite promising results were achieved, the effects of human-robot interaction on human motor control and the r...

BACKGROUND: Stroke is a leading cause of serious gait impairments and restoring walking ability is a major goal of physical therapy interventions. Soft robotic exosuits are portable, lightweight, and unobtrusive assistive devices designed to improve ...
This paper presents an innovative application of a 6-DOF robot in the field of rehabilitation training. This robot operates in a parallel fashion for lower limb movement, which adopts a new structure that can help patients to carry out a variety of r...
An automatic assessment system for physical telerehabilitation could reduce the time and cost of treatments. But such assessment involves stochastic uncertainties, nonlinearities, and complexities of human movement. Probabilistic models and deep stru...
