Over the years, the number of exoskeleton devices utilized for upper-limb rehabilitation has increased dramatically, each with its own set of pros and cons. Most exoskeletons are not portable, limiting their utility to daily use for house…
This study presents the design and the kinematic optimization of a novel, underactuated, linkage-based robotic hand exoskeleton to assist users in performing grasping tasks. The device has been designed to apply only normal forces to the…
Knee injuries are frequent, varied and often require the patient to undergo intensive rehabilitation for several months. Treatment protocols usually contemplate some recurrent measurements in order to assess progress, such as goniometry.…
In this paper, we present an integrated human-in-the-loop simulation paradigm for the design and evaluation of a lower extremity exoskeleton that is elastically strapped onto human lower limbs. The exoskeleton has 3 rotational DOFs on each…
Balancing oneself using the spine is a physiological alignment of the body posture in the most efficient manner by the muscular forces for mammals. For this reason, we can see many disabled quadruped animals can still stand or walk even…
Adaptive intelligence aims at empowering machine learning techniques with the additional use of domain knowledge. In this work, we present the application of adaptive intelligence to accelerate MR acquisition. Starting from undersampled…
Gait rehabilitation interventions targeting paretic propulsion can improve walking speed and function in individuals post-stroke. Previous work has demonstrated that real-time biofeedback targeting anterior ground reaction forces (AGRFs)…
Adjusting to amputation can often time be difficult for the body. Post-surgery, amputees have to wait for up to several months before receiving a properly fitted prosthesis. In recent years, there has been a trend toward quantitative…
Assistive exoskeletons have shown great potential in enhancing mobility for individuals with motor impairments, yet their effectiveness relies on precise parameter tuning for personalized assistance. In this study, we investigate the…
In this paper, we address the development of a robotic rehabilitation system for the upper limbs based on collaborative end-effector solutions. The use of commercial collaborative robots offers significant advantages for this task, as they…
Exoskeletons and orthoses are wearable mobile systems providing mechanical benefits to the users. Despite significant improvements in the last decades, the technology is not fully mature to be adopted for strenuous and non-programmed tasks.…
The aim of this work is to improve musculoskeletal-based models of the upper-limb Wrench Feasible Set i.e. the set of achievable maximal wrenches at the hand for applications in collaborative robotics and computer aided ergonomics. In…
The application of 2D markerless gait analysis has garnered increasing interest and application within clinical settings. However, its effectiveness in the realm of lower-limb amputees has remained less than optimal. In response, this study…
Robot-led physical therapy (PT) offers a promising avenue to enhance the care provided by clinical exercise specialists (ES) and physical and occupational therapists to improve patients' adherence to prescribed exercises outside of a…
Prosthetic legs play a pivotal role in clinical rehabilitation, allowing individuals with lower-limb amputations the ability to regain mobility and improve their quality of life. Gait analysis is fundamental for optimizing prosthesis design…
The upper limb robotic exoskeleton is an electromechanical device which use to recover a patients motor dysfunction in the rehabilitation field. It can provide repetitive, comprehensive, focused, positive, and precise training to regain the…
It is very important for quadruped walking machine to keep its stability in high speed walking. It has been indicated that moment around the supporting diagonal line of quadruped in trotting gait largely influences walking stability. In…
Recently, the lower limb exoskeletons which providemobility for paraplegic patients to support their daily life havedrawn much attention. However, the pilots are required to applyexcessive force through a pair of crutches to maintain…
Geometric motion planning offers effective and interpretable gait analysis and optimization tools for locomoting systems. However, due to the curse of dimensionality in coordinate optimization, a key component of geometric motion planning,…
Re-planning in legged locomotion is crucial to track the desired user velocity while adapting to the terrain and rejecting external disturbances. In this work, we propose and test in experiments a real-time Nonlinear Model Predictive…
