This paper describes a low-cost cable-driven manipulator robot for lower limb rehabilitation, designed for the population with gait impairments, such as those with cerebral palsy or stroke. The robot is composed by a fixed base and a mobile platform (orthoses) that can be connected to one cable, or at most six, and can perform the individual movements of the hip, the knee, and the ankle. It starts...
Stroke is one of the major causes of permanent adult disability. Stroke frequently affects motor control of the arm, leading to diffculties in doing activities of daily living. This research focuses on developing an upper limb rehabilitation robotic prototype through user-centered design to aid stroke survivors in rehabilitating their arm. To gather requirements from end users, stroke therapy sessions...
This investigation is one in a series of studies that address the possibility of stroke rehabilitation using robotic devices to facilitate “adaptive training.” Healthy subjects, after training in the presence of systematically applied forces, typically exhibit a predictable “after-effect.” A critical question is whether this adaptive characteristic is preserved following stroke so that it might be...
