This study presents a method for the active control of a follow-up lower extremity exoskeleton rehabilitation robot (LEERR) based on human motion intention recognition. Initially, to effectively support body weight and compensate for the vertical mov...
For trained individuals such as athletes and musicians, learning often plateaus after extensive training, known as the "ceiling effect." One bottleneck to overcome it is having no prior physical experience with the skill to be learned. Here, we chall...

OBJECTIVE: to establish whether torque pulses applied by an exoskeleton to the hip and knee joint modulate propulsion mechanics and whether changes in propulsion mechanics are sustained after exposure to torque pulses under user-driven treadmill cont...
In recent years, exoskeleton robots have attracted great interest from researchers in the area of robotics due to their ability to assist human functionality improvement. A wearable lower limb exoskeleton is aimed at supporting the limb functionality...
BACKGROUND: Functional electrical stimulation (FES) and robotic exoskeletons represent emerging technologies with significant potential for restoring critical physical functions such as standing and walking-functions that are most susceptible after s...
BACKGROUND: The main key to the 4th industrial era is robots, and wearable robots are incorporated into human healthcare. Samsung Electronics' Bot Fit is a hip joint-centered assistive robot that can induce walking posture and energetic walking exerc...
Exoskeletons offer promising solutions for improving human mobility, but a key challenge is ensuring the controller adapts to changing walking conditions. We present an artificial intelligence (AI)-driven universal exoskeleton system that dynamically...
Advancements in science and technology have driven the growing use of robots in daily life, with Portable-Powered Lower Limb Exoskeletons (PPLLEs) emerging as a key innovation. The selection of mechanisms, control strategies, and sensors directly inf...
Soft exoskeletons (exosuits) are expected to provide a comfortable wearing experience and compliant assistance compared with traditional rigid exoskeleton robots. In this paper, an exosuit with twisted string actuators (TSAs) is developed to provide ...
