Restoring walking functions will greatly improve the foot-drop patients' life quality. In this work, we sampled 10 healthy subjects' gait data when walking in 4 different stride frequency overground and developed a dynamic Functional Electrical Stimulation (dFES) system for foot-drop patients' walk training, using the processed tibialis anterior (TA) muscle EMG signal. The data sampled under the new...
Current skeletal muscle conditioning is typically performed by application of a steady force (load). However, as confirmed by whole-body-vibration applications, the involvement of neuromuscular reflex due to load variations plays an important role in muscular conditioning. Therefore, in this paper we present a prototype for muscular conditioning where the loading force, which is generated by an electromagnetic...
A summary of the design and functionality of a robotic workstation that has been constructed for use by stroke patients in order to improve voluntary control of their impaired arm is first given in this paper. The patient's task will be to track an elliptical trajectory using voluntary control with the addition of surface FES applied to muscles in their shoulder and arm. This work then comprises results...
