Enhanced gastrocnemius-mimicking lower limb powered exoskeleton robot.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Lower limb muscle bionic devices have attracted significant attention in rehabilitation and assistive sports technology. Despite advancements in mimicking human movement, current devices still face challenges in enhancing strength and mov...

AI in therapeutic and assistive exoskeletons and exosuits: Influences on performance and autonomy.

Science robotics
Therapeutic and assistive exoskeletons and exosuits show promise in both clinical and real-world settings. Improving their autonomy can enhance usability, effectiveness, and cost efficiency. This Review presents a generic control framework for autono...

Gait training using powered robotic exoskeleton for a person with spinal cord injury: a case report.

Spinal cord series and cases
INTRODUCTION: Robotic Exoskeleton-assisted gait training is an emerging approach in spinal cord injury (SCI) rehabilitation. This case report evaluates the effectiveness of Powered-Robotic exoskeleton-based gait training in an individual with chronic...

Cost-effectiveness analysis of robotic exoskeleton versus conventional physiotherapy for stroke rehabilitation in Singapore from a health system perspective.

BMJ open
OBJECTIVES: This study conducted a comprehensive probabilistic cost-effectiveness analysis comparing robotic exoskeleton therapy to conventional physiotherapy for stroke rehabilitation in Singapore, focusing on three patient groups categorised by the...

Exploratory development of human-machine interaction strategies for post-stroke upper-limb rehabilitation.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Stroke and its related complications, place significant burdens on human society in the twenty-first century, and lead to substantial demands for upper limb rehabilitation. To fulfill the rehabilitation needs, human-machine interaction (H...

OpenExo: An open-source modular exoskeleton to augment human function.

Science robotics
Although the field of wearable robotic exoskeletons is rapidly expanding, there are several barriers to entry that discourage many from pursuing research in this area, ultimately hindering growth. Chief among these is the lengthy and costly developme...

Upper limb human-exoskeleton system motion state classification based on semg: application of CNN-BiLSTM-attention model.

Scientific reports
This study aims to classify five typical motion states of the human upper limb based on surface electromyography signals, thereby supporting the real-time control system of an assistive upper limb exoskeleton. We propose a deep learning model combini...

Reinforcement Learning-Driven Path Generation for Ankle Rehabilitation Robot Using Musculoskeletal-Informed Energy Optimization.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
In rehabilitation robotics, optimizing energy consumption and high interaction forces is essential to prevent unnecessary muscle fatigue and excessive joint loading as they often cause an inefficient trajectory planning and disrupt natural movement p...

Development and Validation of the Novel Exergame-Integrated Robotic Stepper Device for Seated Lower Limb Rehabilitation.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Seated rehabilitation is essential in early-stage recovery for patients who can sit but cannot stand or walk. Robotic-based lower limb rehabilitation provides precise, task-specific training for recovery, but its application in seated exercises remai...

Effects of exoskeleton rehabilitation robot training on neuroplasticity and lower limb motor function in patients with stroke.

BMC neurology
BACKGROUND: Lower limb exoskeleton rehabilitation robot is a new technology to improve the lower limb motor function of stroke patients. Recovery of motor function after stroke is closely related to neuroplasticity in the motor cortex and associated ...
