BACKGROUND: Despite the growing evidence about the use of robotic gait training in neurorehabilitation, there is a scant literature about the combined effects of this innovative technological approach and a first‑line treatment for focal spasticity a...
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: To evaluate the feasibility of a unique prototype foot-controlled robotic-enabled endoscope holder (FREE) in functional endoscopic sinus surgery.
In the operational theater, the surgical team could highly benefit from a robotic supplementary hand under the surgeon's full control. The surgeon may so become more autonomous; this may reduce communication errors with the assistants and take over d...
In general, three-dimensional ground reaction forces (GRFs) and ground reaction moments (GRMs) that occur during human gait are measured using a force plate, which are expensive and have spatial limitations. Therefore, we proposed a prediction model ...

BACKGROUND: Robotic ankle-foot prostheses that provide net positive push-off work can reduce the metabolic rate of walking for individuals with amputation, but benefits might be sensitive to push-off timing. Simple walking models suggest that preempt...

OBJECTIVE: This article aims to design, manufacture and evaluate an active insole to reduce plantar tissue loading to minimise the risk of diabetic foot ulceration for people living with diabetes.
PURPOSE: To introduce heatmap-in-heatmap (HIH)-based model for automated diagnosis of foot deformities using weight-bearing foot radiographs, aiming to address the labor-intensive and variable nature of manual diagnosis.
Accurate description of individual bone kinematics is essential for understanding individual foot and ankle joint function and interactions. While invasive and noninvasive techniques, including robotic simulators, have advanced the direct measurement...
