Stroke is one of the leading causes of long-term disability today; therefore, many research
efforts are focused on designing maximally effective and efficient treatment methods. In …

Background: Stroke is a major contributor to the reduced ability to carry out activities of daily
living (ADL) post cerebral infarct. There has been a major focus on understanding and …

Modern wearable robots are not yet intelligent enough to fully satisfy the demands of end-
users, as they lack the sensor fusion algorithms needed to provide optimal assistance and …

Electromyography (EMG) signal is one of the extensively utilised biological signals for
predicting human motor intention, which is an essential element in human-robot …

Objective: Although existing assist-as-needed (AAN) controllers have been designed to
adapt the robotic assistance to patients' movement performance, they ignore patient's active …

This review paper defines NeuroRehabilitation Mechatronics (NRM) as an overlap between
two areas of applied science: Bio-mechatronics and Neural Engineering. NRM is an …

Stroke is a significant disability and death cause worldwide and is conventionally defined as
a neurological impairment relating to the intense focal harm of the central nervous system …

Robot-mediated neuro-rehabilitation has been proved to be an effective therapeutic
approach for upper limb motor recovery after stroke, though its actual potential when …

Robot-assisted arm therapy is increasingly applied in neurorehabilitation. The reason for
this development over the last decades was that robots relieve the therapist from hard …

In this paper, the concept of an innovative exoskeleton for stroke rehabilitation in the
