Journal ArticleDOI

Rehabilitation of gait after stroke: a review towards a top-down approach.

TL;DR: This document provides a review of the techniques and therapies used in gait rehabilitation after stroke and examines the possible benefits of including assistive robotic devices and brain-computer interfaces in this field, according to a top-down approach, in which rehabilitation is driven by neural plasticity.
Book

Wearable Robots: Biomechatronic Exoskeletons

TL;DR: This book presents a case study of a biomimetic, kinematically compliant knee joint modelled by a four-bar linkage in an upper limb exoskeleton of a wearable robot.
Journal ArticleDOI

Design and Validation of a Rehabilitation Robotic Exoskeleton for Tremor Assessment and Suppression

TL;DR: The robotic exoskeleton called WOTAS (wearable orthosis for tremor assessment and suppression) is introduced that provides a means of testing and validating nongrounded control strategies for orthotic tremor suppression and results from clinical trials indicate the feasibility of ambulatory mechanical exoskeletons.
Journal ArticleDOI

The MANUS-HAND Dextrous Robotics Upper Limb Prosthesis: Mechanical and Manipulation Aspects

TL;DR: The mechanical design and manipulation aspects of the MANUS-HAND project to develop a multifunctional upper limb prosthesis are presented, with an innovative design that triples the performance of currently existing commercial hand prosthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The H2 robotic exoskeleton for gait rehabilitation after stroke: early findings from a clinical study

TL;DR: The developed exoskeleton enables longitudinal overground training of walking in hemiparetic patients after stroke and is robust and safe when applied to assist a stroke patient performing an overground walking task.
