Automatic suspension device for gait training.
The automatic suspension device (REHABOT) suspends the patient's body in a standing position allowing the patient to walk around the circular handrail without forward propulsion. Reduction of body weight is accurately maintained automatically while safely supporting the patient. The device was used for 23 patients with orthopaedic disorders or central nervous system disorders who were chosen be...
متن کاملTrainer variability during step training after spinal cord injury: Implications for robotic gait-training device design.
Robotic devices are being developed to automate repetitive aspects of walking retraining after neurological injuries, in part because they might improve the consistency and quality of training. However, it is unclear how inconsistent manual training actually is or whether stepping quality depends strongly on the trainers' manual skill. The objective of this study was to quantify trainer variabi...
متن کاملDesign of Dual-Purpose Treadmill and Gait Simulator Device for Veterans and Disabled People
Background and Aim: The purpose of this study was to design of dual-purpose treadmill and gait simulator device for veterans and disabled people. This device can be used by both healthy and stroke patients, spinal cord injury, Parkinson's disease, MS and people who have lost their ability to walk for a temporary period. Methods: The device design is such that the protective waistcoat has sensor...
متن کاملAutomatic Gait Recognition
Gait is an emergent biometric aimed essentially to recognise people by the way they walk. Its advantages are that it is non-invasive and that it is less likely to be obscured since it appears to be difficult to camouflage, especially in cases of serious crime. Gait has allied subjects which lend support to the view that gait has clear potential as a biometric. Essentially, we use computer visio...
متن کاملAutomatic Gait Optimisation for Quadruped Robots
As part of the winning team in the Sony legged robot league of the RoboCup 2003 international robotic soccer competition, we used automatic gait optimisation. This was the first such technique seen in the competition and allowed an improvement in both speed and stability over previous gaits. Additionally, the technique was fast enough to run on-site at the competition, optimising the walk for t...
