BACKGROUND: Upper-limb rehabilitation robots have become an important piece of equipment in stroke rehabilitation. The design of exoskeleton mechanisms plays a key role to improve human-robot interface in the upper-limb movements under passive and ac...
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) was initially developed based on the passive controlled (PC) mode, where the target or ideal locomotor kinematic trajectory is predefined and a patient basically 'rides' the robot instead of actively pa...
BACKGROUND: Gait rehabilitation using a footpad-type locomotion interface has been reported as effective in improving gait ability in chronic stroke patients. However, the effect on subacute stroke patients is unknown.

BACKGROUND: Trunk control ability is an important component of functional independence after the onset of stroke. Recently, it has been reported that robot-assisted functional training is effective for stroke patients. However, most studies on robot-...
BACKGROUND: SUBAR is a new ground walking exoskeletal robot. The objective of this study is to investigate SUBAR-assisted gait training's effects in patients with chronic stroke.

The recent COVID-19 pandemic has further high-lighted the need for improving tele-rehabilitation systems. One of the common methods is to use wearable sensors for monitoring patients and intelligent algorithms for accurate and objective assessments. ...
BACKGROUND: Shedding light on the neuroscientific mechanisms of human upper limb motor control, in both healthy and disease conditions (e.g., after a stroke), can help to devise effective tools for a quantitative evaluation of the impaired conditions...
