BACKGROUND: In recent meta-analyses, robot-assisted gait training for patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) have yielded limited clinical benefits compared with conventional overground gait training.
We report on the development of separated and laterally arranged two-leg (SLTL) models with/without differentiated leg properties and their use as the dynamic running and turning templates for a hexapod robot. The laterally arranged two-leg morpholog...
INTRODUCTION: Animals such as cattle can achieve versatile and elegant behaviors through automatic sensorimotor coordination. Their self-organized movements convey an impression of adaptability, robustness, and motor memory. However, the adaptive mec...
CONTEXT: Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) has been increasingly adopted in many rehabilitation facilities for walking function and activity in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). However, the effectiveness of RAGT on lower extremity strengt...
Ground reaction force (GRF) is essential for estimating muscle strength and joint torque in inverse dynamic analysis. Typically, it is measured using a force plate. However, force plates have spatial limitations, and studies of gaits involve numerous...
Anchoring components are added to wearable robots to ensure a stable interaction between the suits and the human body and to minimize the displacement of the suits. However, these components can apply pressure to the body and can cause user dissatisf...
OBJECTIVES: The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of robot-assisted walking in different modalities on cardiorespiratory responses and energy consumption in subacute stroke patients.
