Interactive wearable systems for upper body rehabilitation: a systematic review.

Qi Wang, +4 more
- 11 Mar 2017 - 
TL;DR: This review has shown that wearable systems are used mostly for the monitoring and provision of feedback on posture and upper extremity movements in stroke rehabilitation, and accelerometers and IMUs are the most frequently used sensors.
Journal ArticleDOI

A review on design of upper limb exoskeletons

Muhammad Ahsan Gull, +2 more
- 01 Mar 2020 - 
TL;DR: The key challenges involved in the development of assistive exoskeletons are highlighted by comparing available solutions and a general classification, comparisons, and overview of the mechatronic designs of upper-limb exoskeleton designs are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

An index finger exoskeleton with series elastic actuation for rehabilitation

Priyanshu Agarwal, +4 more
- 01 Dec 2015 - 
TL;DR: A novel index finger exoskeleton with Bowden-cable-based series elastic actuation allowing for bidirectional torque control of the device with high backdrivability and low reflected inertia and has the potential to be used as a haptic device for teleoperation.

Systematic review on wearable lower-limb exoskeletons for gait training in neuromuscular impairments.

Antonio Rodríguez-Fernández, +2 more
- 01 Feb 2021 - 
TL;DR: Wearable lower-limb exoskeletons for gait rehabilitation are still in their early stages of development and randomized control trials are needed to demonstrate their clinical efficacy, and evidence supporting their benefits is still limited to short-intervention trials with few participants and diversity among their clinical protocols.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface EMG based continuous estimation of human lower limb joint angles by using deep belief networks

Jiangcheng Chen, +4 more
- 01 Feb 2018 - 
TL;DR: The results show that the features extracted from multichannel surface EMG signals using DBN method proposed in this paper outperform principal components analysis (PCA), and the root mean square error (RMSE) between the estimated joint angles and calculated ones during human walking is reduced by about 50%.

Knowledge-Based Intelligent Information and Engineering Systems

Rossitza Setchi, +3 more
TL;DR: Adaptive Resonance Theory (ART) neural networks model real-time prediction, search, learning, and recognition, and design principles derived from scientific analyses and design constraints imposed by targeted applications have jointly guided the development of many variants of the basic networks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Robot-Assisted Therapy on Upper Limb Recovery After Stroke: A Systematic Review

Gert Kwakkel, +2 more
- 01 Mar 2008 - 
TL;DR: Future research into the effects of robot-assisted therapy should distinguish between upper and lower robotics arm training and concentrate on kinematical analysis to differentiate between genuine upper limb motor recovery and functional recovery due to compensation strategies by proximal control of the trunk and upper limb.

Biomechanical design of the Berkeley lower extremity exoskeleton (BLEEX)

A.B. Zoss, +2 more
- 10 Apr 2006 - 
TL;DR: The Berkeley lower extremity exoskeleton (BLEEX) as mentioned in this paper has 7 DOF per leg, four of which are powered by linear hydraulic actuators, and the selection of the DOF, critical hardware design aspects and initial performance measurements of BLEEX are discussed.
