Stroke affects one out of every six people on Earth. Approximately 90% of stroke survivors
have some functional disability with mobility being a major impairment, which not only …

Robot-assisted rehabilitation and therapy has become more and more frequently used to
help the elderly, disabled patients or movement disorders to perform exercise and training …

Robot-aided gait training can increase the duration and number of training sessions while
reducing the number of therapists required for each patient. However, current automated …

In this paper we present a redundantly actuated parallel mechanism for ankle rehabilitation.
The proposed device has the advantage of mechanical and kinematic simplicity when …

In the previous rehabilitation robot research, the proposed ankle models for rehabilitation
robot design have distinctions with the ankle bone structure. It leads to the unsatisfactory …

In this paper, we propose a novel redirected walking (RDW) technique that applies dynamic
bending and curvature gains so that users perceive less discomfort than existing techniques …

Ankle rehabilitation robots are developed to enhance ankle strength, flexibility and
proprioception after injury and to promote motor learning and ankle plasticity in patients with …

In this paper the evolution of industrial robotics towards rehabilitation tasks is addressed.
The importance of ankle injuries and the appropriate passive or active rehabilitation …

This paper presents the concept, design process, and the prototype of a novel haptics-based
lower-extremity rehabilitation robot for bed-ridden stroke patients. This system, named …

The latest rehabilitation robot based on generalized spherical parallel mechanism (GSPM)
forces higher requirements for the accurate ankle motion description, but the talus, ankle …
