It is generally accepted that augmented feedback, provided by a human expert or a technical
display, effectively enhances motor learning. However, discussion of the way to most …

Background Stroke is the most common cause of disability in the developed world and can
severely degrade walking function. Robot-driven gait therapy can provide assistance to …

Robotic gait training is gaining ground in rehabilitation. Room for improvement lies in
reducing donning and doffing time, making training more task specific and facilitating active …

This paper presents a control approach for a lower-limb exoskeleton intended to facilitate
recovery of walking in individuals with lower-extremity hemiparesis after stroke. The authors …

A new method of lower-limb exoskeleton control aimed at improving the agility of leg-swing
motion is presented. In the absence of control, an exoskeleton's mechanism usually hinders …

Background Chronic hand and wrist impairment are frequently present following stroke and
severely limit independence in everyday life. The wrist orientates and stabilizes the hand …

Ankle rehabilitation robots have recently attracted great attention since they provide various
advantages in terms of rehabilitation process from the viewpoints of patients and therapists …

This paper describes a lower limb exoskeleton control approach that facilitates a desired
movement coordination between the hip and knee joints during the swing phase of gait. An …

Until today it is not entirely clear how humans interact with automated gait rehabilitation
devices and how we can, based on that interaction, maximize the effectiveness of these …

Background Task-specific locomotor training has been promoted to improve walking-related
outcome after incomplete spinal cord injury (iSCI). However, there is also evidence that …
