Therapist-Exoskeleton-Patient Interaction for Gait Therapy
Emek BarıŠKüçüktabak, Matthew R. Short, Lorenzo Vianello +4
Following a stroke, individuals often experience mobility and balance impairments due to lower-limb weakness and loss of independent joint control. Gait recovery is a key goal of r…
Robot-mediated physical Human-Human Interaction in Neurorehabilitation: a position paper
Lorenzo Vianello, Matthew Short, Julia Manczurowsky +25
Neurorehabilitation conventionally relies on the interaction between a patient and a physical therapist. Robotic systems can improve and enrich the physical feedback provided to pa…
Deep-Learning Control of Lower-Limb Exoskeletons via simplified Therapist Input
Lorenzo Vianello, Clément Lhoste, Emek BarıŠKüçüktabak +3
Partial-assistance exoskeletons hold significant potential for gait rehabilitation by promoting active participation during (re)learning of normative walking patterns. Typically, t…
Deep-Learning Estimation of Weight Distribution Using Joint Kinematics for Lower-Limb Exoskeleton Control
Clément Lhoste, Emek BarıŠKüçüktabak, Lorenzo Vianello +4
In the control of lower-limb exoskeletons with feet, the phase in the gait cycle can be identified by monitoring the weight distribution at the feet. This phase information can be…
