Brain-Computer Interface Controlled Robotic Gait Orthosis: A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
An able-bodied subject used walking motor imagery to accurately operate a non-invasive brain-computer interface (BCI) controlled robotic gait orthosis. This finding represents the first successful demonstration of a BCI-controlled lower extremity prosthesis for independent ambulation, with significant implications for restoring ambulation to individuals with spinal cord injury paraplegia.

Robotic gait training in patients with impaired consciousness due to severe traumatic brain injury.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE This prospective controlled non-randomized study investigated the effects of robotic gait training on electroencephalographic (EEG) brain activity in patients with impaired consciousness due to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). METHODS Twelve TBI patients and 14 healthy controls underwent a single training session on a computer-driven gait orthosis (Lokomat®). The sensory...
متن کاملControl of a 2-DoF robotic arm using a P300-based brain-computer interface
In this study, a novel control algorithm, based on a P300-based brain-computer interface (BCI) is fully developed to control a 2-DoF robotic arm. Eight subjects including 5 men and 3 women perform a 2-dimensional target tracking in a simulated environment. Their EEG (Electroencephalography) signals from visual cortex are recorded and P300 components are extracted and evaluated to perform a real...
متن کاملHuman Walk Modeled by PCPG to Control a Lower Limb Neuroprosthesis by High-Level Commands
Current active leg prostheses do not integrate the most recent advances in Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) and bipedal robotics. Moreover, their actuators are seldom driven by the subject’s intention. This paper aims at showing a summary of our current results in the field of human gait rehabilitation. In a first prototype, the main focus was on people suffering from foot drop problems, i.e. pe...
متن کاملMobility training using a bionic knee orthosis in patients in a post-stroke chronic state: a case series
INTRODUCTION An emerging area of neurorehabilitation is the use of robotic devices to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of lower extremity physical therapy post-stroke. Many of the robotic devices currently available rely on computer-driven locomotive algorithms combined with partial bodyweight-supported treadmill training that drive reflex stepping with minimal patient intention during ...
متن کاملReduced knee hyperextension after wearing a robotic knee orthosis during gait training--a case study.
This case study describes the effects of a wearable dynamic knee orthosis to supplement walking training in a patient suffering knee hyperextension. The subject was a 57-year old female who was 3.5 years post-brain tumor surgery. She was presented with impaired right lower extremity muscle performance, increased lower extremity muscle tension, and right knee hyperextension. She reported pain at...
