Human Gait Entrainment to Soft Robotic Hip Perturbation During Simulated Overground Walking.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Entraining human gait with a periodic mechanical perturbation has been proposed as a potentially effective strategy for gait rehabilitation, but the related studies have mostly depended on the use of a fixed-speed treadmill (FST) due to various pract...

Deep Learning-Based Identification Algorithm for Transitions Between Walking Environments Using Electromyography Signals Only.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Although studies on terrain identification algorithms to control walking assistive devices have been conducted using sensor fusion, studies on transition classification using only electromyography (EMG) signals have yet to be conducted. Therefore, th...

Self-Balancing Exoskeleton Robots Designed to Facilitate Multiple Rehabilitation Training Movements.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
This study presents the biomimetic design of the structure and controller of AutoLEE-II, a self-balancing exoskeleton developed to assist patients in performing multiple rehabilitation movements without crutches or other supporting equipment. Its str...

Factors affecting the efficiency of walking independence in patients with subacute stroke following robot-assisted gait training with conventional rehabilitation.

International journal of rehabilitation research. Internationale Zeitschrift fur Rehabilitationsforschung. Revue internationale de recherches de readaptation
Factors affecting the efficiency of walking independence in patients with subacute stroke following robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) and conventional treatment (RAGT-CT) were examined. This retrospective cohort study included 37 patients with stro...

Soft robotic apparel to avert freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease.

Nature medicine
Freezing of gait (FoG) is a profoundly disruptive gait disturbance in Parkinson's disease, causing unintended stops while walking. Therapies for FoG reveal modest and transient effects, resulting in a lack of effective treatments. Here we show proof ...

Comparative performance of machine learning models for the classification of human gait.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
The efficacy of human activity recognition (HAR) models mostly relies on the characteristics derived from domain expertise. The input of the classification algorithm consists of many characteristics that are utilized to accurately and effectively cla...

The gait1415+2 OpenSim musculoskeletal model of transfemoral amputees with a generic bone-anchored prosthesis.

Medical engineering & physics
This short communication presents the gait1415+2 musculoskeletal model, that has been developed in OpenSim to describe the lower-extremity of a human subject with transfemoral amputation wearing a generic lower-limb bone-anchored prosthesis. The mode...

Abduction/Adduction Assistance From Powered Hip Exoskeleton Enables Modulation of User Step Width During Walking.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
UNLABELLED: Using wearable robotics to modulate step width in normal walking for enhanced mediolateral balance has not been demonstrated in the field. We designed a bilateral hip exoskeleton with admittance control to power hip abduction and adductio...

Depth-aware pose estimation using deep learning for exoskeleton gait analysis.

Scientific reports
In rehabilitation medicine, real-time analysis of the gait for human wearing lower-limb exoskeleton rehabilitation robot during walking can effectively prevent patients from experiencing excessive and asymmetric gait during rehabilitation training, t...

Human Walking Direction Detection Using Wireless Signals, Machine and Deep Learning Algorithms.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The use of wireless signals for device-free activity recognition and precise indoor positioning has gained significant popularity recently. By taking advantage of the characteristics of the received signals, it is possible to establish a mapping betw...
