First-ever biomimetic lower-limb robotic exoskeleton developed.

Stroke and spinal cord injury patients often require gait rehabilitation to regain the ability to walk or to help strengthen their muscles. Wearable robot-assisted training is quickly emerging as a method that helps improve this rehab process.  However, most current lower-limb rehabilitation robots simplified the knee-joint as a pin joint. The centre of rotation of the knee-joint is commonly fixed, which does not match the … Continue reading First-ever biomimetic lower-limb robotic exoskeleton developed.
