PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis on the reliability and applicability of artificial intelligence (AI)-based analysis of leg axis parameters. We hypothesized that AI-based leg axis measurements would ...
In this study, we introduce a new model for bipedal locomotion that enhances the classical spring-loaded inverted pendulum (SLIP) model. Our proposed model incorporates a damping term in the leg spring, a linear actuator serially interconnected to th...
PURPOSE: Rehabilitation technology can be used to provide intensive training in the early phases after stroke. The current study aims to assess the feasibility of combining robotics and functional electrical stimulation (FES), with an assist-as-neede...
Robotic locomotion in unstructured terrain demands an agile, adaptive, and energy-efficient architecture. To traverse such terrains, legged robots use rigid electromagnetic motors and sensorized drivetrains to adapt to the environment actively. These...

Eddy current brakes have been recently used for functional resistance training in individuals with neurological and orthopaedic disorders. These devices consist of a gearbox, a conductive disc, and permanent magnets that can be moved relative to the ...
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) remains underdiagnosed and undertreated and is associated with an increased risk for adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Imaging provides an approach to identifying patients with PAD. However, the role of integrating imag...
Legged robots, designed to emulate human functions, have greatly influenced numerous sectors. However, the focus on continuously improving the joint motors and control systems of existing legged robots not only increases costs and complicates mainten...
