Wireless distributed functional electrical stimulation system [PDF]
Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2012 Background The control of movement in humans is hierarchical and distributed and uses feedback. An assistive system could be best integrated into the therapy of a human with a central nervous system lesion if the system is controlled in a similar manner.
