Soft-body grippers are highly pliable due to the use of flexible materials, which enable safe grasping of objects, but their load-bearing capacity is limited by the mechanical properties of the materials themselves. To address the problem of insuffic...
This study presents a wearable robot equipped with a novel anchoring structure designed to improve both force transmission efficiency and user comfort. While soft wearable robots are inherently more comfortable than rigid exoskeletons, they often suf...
Data-driven methods have transformed our ability to assess and respond to human movement with wearable robots, promising real-world rehabilitation and augmentation benefits. However, the proliferation of data-driven methods, with the associated deman...
Ankle exoskeletons have garnered considerable interest for their potential to enhance mobility, support rehabilitation, and reduce fall risks, particularly among the aging population. Their effectiveness depends on accurate, real-time prediction of u...
The integration of robotics and Electrical Stimulation (ES) in neurorehabilitation leverages robotics' precise task execution alongside ES-induced motor learning, muscle conditioning, and cardiovascular benefits. We propose a hybrid system for overgr...
The overall goal of this study was to develop a computational framework to quantify hip, knee, and ankle joint forces during exoskeletal-assisted walking (EAW) in the ReWalk P6.0, an FDA-approved lower-extremity exoskeleton. The first objective was t...
INTRODUCTION: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a traumatic head injury that can lead to gait-related disabilities, and exoskeleton training may be beneficial for the recovery of this function in these patients. The objective of this study is to determ...
