Quasi optimal sagittal gait of a biped robot with a new structure of knee joint [PDF]
The design of humanoid robots has been a tricky challenge for several years. Due to the kinematic complexity of human joints, their movements are notoriously difficult to be reproduced by a mechanism. The human knees allow movements including rolling and

Influence of frictions on gait optimization of a biped robot with an anthropomorphic knee [PDF]
This paper presents the energy consumption of a biped robot with a new modelled structure of knees which is called rolling knee (RK). The dynamic model, the actuators and the friction coefficients of the gear box are known. The optimal energy consumption

Appendix A The safety assessment of robot-assisted gait training
This is the safety assessment of robot-assisted gait training. To investigate the safety of robot-assisted gait training, we developed a safety assessment. Experienced doctors, physical therapists, and involved researchers (robot developers) participated

Quasi Optimal Gait of a Biped Robot with a Rolling Knee Kinematic [PDF]
In this paper, we address the problem of optimization of trajectories for a new class of biped robot. The knees of this biped are similar as the anthropomorphic one and have a rolling contact between the femur and the tibia.

The effectiveness of robotic-assisted gait training for paediatric gait disorders: systematic review [PDF]
Robotic-assisted gait training (RAGT) affords an opportunity to increase walking practice with mechanical assistance from robotic devices, rather than therapists, where the child may not be able to generate a sufficient or correct motion with enough repetitions to promote improvement.

Motorised shoe mechanisms to apply chaotic perturbations for gait training [PDF]
Motorised shoes have been developed to apply chaotic perturbations for gait training. Each shoe comprises four individually controlled actuators, two in the heel and two in the forefoot.

Robot-assisted gait training to reduce pusher behavior [PDF]
To determine the effects of 2 weeks of intensive robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) on pusher behavior compared to nonrobotic physiotherapy (nR-PT).In a single-blind, randomized, controlled trial with 2 parallel arms, we compared 2 weeks of daily RAGT (intervention group) with the same amount of nR-PT (control group). Patients with subacute stroke who
