OBJECTIVE: The Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL; CYBERDYNE, Inc., Japan) is a wearable robot device that provides effective gait assistance according to voluntary intention by detecting weak bioelectrical signals of neuromuscular activity on the surface of...
Continuous fall risk assessment and real-time high falling risk warning are extremely necessary for the elderly, to protect their lives and ensure their quality of life. Wearable in-shoe pressure sensors have the potential to achieve these targets, d...
OBJECTIVE: The Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL) has recently been used to treat movement disorders. Although studies have shown its effectiveness for chronic myelopathy, the immediate effects of HAL gait training on lower limb function have not been clari...

BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) may have beneficial effects on Parkinson's disease (PD); however, the evidence to date is inconsistent.
Running gait patterns have implications for revealing the causes of injuries between higher-mileage runners and low-mileage runners. However, there is limited research on the possible relationships between running gait patterns and weekly running mil...
This study aims to develop the application of pneumatic artificial muscle (PAM) for a 2-degrees of freedom (2-DOF) lower limb rehabilitation assistance training robot system. The proposed lower limb robot system can be divided into two axes, such as ...
This article introduces a tracked-leg transformable robot, TALBOT. The mechanical and electrical design, control method, and environment perception based on LiDAR are discussed. The original tracked-leg transformable structure allows the robot to swi...
