Abduction/Adduction Assistance From Powered Hip Exoskeleton Enables Modulation of User Step Width During Walking.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
UNLABELLED: Using wearable robotics to modulate step width in normal walking for enhanced mediolateral balance has not been demonstrated in the field. We designed a bilateral hip exoskeleton with admittance control to power hip abduction and adductio...

Depth-aware pose estimation using deep learning for exoskeleton gait analysis.

Scientific reports
In rehabilitation medicine, real-time analysis of the gait for human wearing lower-limb exoskeleton rehabilitation robot during walking can effectively prevent patients from experiencing excessive and asymmetric gait during rehabilitation training, t...

Human motor augmentation with an extra robotic arm without functional interference.

Science robotics
Extra robotic arms (XRAs) are gaining interest in neuroscience and robotics, offering potential tools for daily activities. However, this compelling opportunity poses new challenges for sensorimotor control strategies and human-machine interfaces (HM...

Design and analysis of a compatible exoskeleton rehabilitation robot system based on upper limb movement mechanism.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
Rehabilitation robots are used to promote structural and functional recovery of the nervous system with repetitive, task-oriented training and have been gradually applied to clinical rehabilitation training. This paper proposes an upper limb exoskele...

Combining FES and Exoskeletons in a Hybrid Haptic System for Enhancing VR Experience.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Robotic technology and functional electrical stimulation (FES) have emerged as highly effective rehabilitative techniques for individuals with neuromuscular diseases, showcasting their ability to restore motor functions. Within the proposed study, we...

Human-in-the-Loop Adaptive Control of a Soft Exo-Suit With Actuator Dynamics and Ankle Impedance Adaptation.

IEEE transactions on cybernetics
Soft exo-suit could facilitate walking assistance activities (such as level walking, upslope, and downslope) for unimpaired individuals. In this article, a novel human-in-the-loop adaptive control scheme is presented for a soft exo-suit, which provid...

A Wearable Co-Located Neural-Mechanical Signal Sensing Device for Simultaneous Bimodal Muscular Activity Detection.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
The co-located and concurrent measurement of both muscular neural activity and muscular deformation is considered necessary in many applications, such as medical robotics, assistive exoskeletons and muscle function evaluations. Nevertheless, conventi...

Effects of overground gait training assisted by a wearable exoskeleton in patients with Parkinson's disease.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: In the recent past, wearable devices have been used for gait rehabilitation in patients with Parkinson's disease. The objective of this paper is to analyze the outcome of a wearable hip orthosis whose assistance adapts in real time to the...

In-depth quantification of bimanual coordination using the Kinarm exoskeleton robot in children with unilateral cerebral palsy.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Robots have been proposed as tools to measure bimanual coordination in children with unilateral cerebral palsy (uCP). However, previous research only examined one task and clinical interpretation remains challenging due to the large amoun...

Design and Analysis of an Upper Limb Rehabilitation Robot Based on Multimodal Control.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
To address the rehabilitation needs of upper limb hemiplegic patients in various stages of recovery, streamline the workload of rehabilitation professionals, and provide data visualization, our research team designed a six-degree-of-freedom upper lim...
