OBJECTIVE: To investigate the feasibility and safety of robotic-assisted gait training (RAGT) in adults with disorders of consciousness (DoC).

Development of a user needs-based telepresence robot for consultation.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
BACKGROUND: An assessment of needs to develop a system that provides consultations using a telepresence robot and education for health professionals was conducted. The absence of a structured methodology for user-needs analysis has been identified as...

Lateral Transfer Assist Robot (LTAR): Development of a proof-of-concept prototype.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
BACKGROUND: Falls during transfer to and from a wheelchair are associated with numerous problems. Factors responsible for difficulty in transferring include horizontal/vertical gaps between surfaces; obstacles, such as armrests; and complicated brake...

A Robotic Glenohumeral Simulator for Investigating Prosthetic Implant Subluxation.

Journal of biomechanical engineering
Total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) is an effective treatment for glenohumeral (GH) osteoarthritis. However, it still suffers from a substantial rate of mechanical failure, which may be related to cyclic off-center loading of the humeral head on the gl...
