Description

The purpose of this study was to design a single-leg robotic exoskeleton for hemiparesis stroke patients in order to assist disabled individuals in performing natural gait patterns. Although there are many existing exoskeleton designs for augmenting human strength and other useful functions, this study’s design uniquely focuses on correcting hemiparesis patients’ gait while providing additional torques that help the patient propel forward and extend their leg, achieving a full range of motion.
