Trends in rehabilitation robotics [PDF]
Recent advances in rehabilitation procedures, methodologies and tools tend to include more and more the cognitive aspects of motor control. With the exploitation of new technologies for brain imaging, it is also possible to ‘close the loop’ from brain to action.

Rehabilitation Robotics and Systems [PDF]
Development of novel engineering solutions that incorporate robotic systems offers huge potential, as both assistive devices and therapeutic aids, for patients with reduced motor and/or cognitive abilities. Indeed, such technologies are capable of outperforming existing therapeutic systems for improving patients’ achievable functional recovery.

Electrically Driven Lower Limb Exoskeleton Rehabilitation Robot Based on Anthropomorphic Design
To help people with impairment of lower extremity movement regain the ability to stand and walk, and to enhance limb function, this study proposes an anthropomorphic design of an electrically driven, lower-limb exoskeleton rehabilitation robot.

Robotics: A Rehabilitation Modality [PDF]
A novel rehabilitation technique must demonstrate certain attributes, namely demonstrate GAINS at the end of intervention, PERSIST beyond treatment, show evidence of GENERALIZATION, reduce COST, or demonstrate cost/benefit advantages. Upper extremity robotics is a novel post-stroke rehabilitative modality as it has already demonstrated these ...

Robotics in shoulder rehabilitation [PDF]
In the last few decades, several researches have been conducted in the field of robotic rehabilitation to meet the intensive, repetitive and task-oriented training, with the goal to recover the motor function. Up to now, robotic rehabilitation studies of the upper extremity have generally focused on stroke survivors leaving less explored the field of ...

Simple Obstacle Avoidance Algorithm for Rehabilitation Robots [PDF]
The efficiency of a rehabilitation robot is improved by offering record-and-replay to operate the robot. While automatically moving to a stored target (replay) collisions of the robot with obstacles in its work space must be avoided.
