Objective: Fall prevention is a major issue in the ageing society. This study provides an
overview of all risk factors for falls of older citizens. Method: A literature search was conducted to …

This paper introduces a newly developed gait rehabilitation device. The device, called LOPES,
combines a freely translatable and 2-D-actuated pelvis segment with a leg exoskeleton …

To automatically align exoskeleton axes to human anatomical axes, we propose to decouple
the joint rotations from the joint translations. Decoupling can reduce setup times and painful …

Robotic gait rehabilitation is at least as effective as conventional gait training in stroke
survivors. Patients must be assisted as needed in order to improve affected gait patterns. The …

The goal of this study was to validate the suitability of a novel rotational hydroelastic actuator
(rHEA) for use in our new rehabilitation exoskeleton for the upper limbs, the Limpact. The …

According to reviews, training with upper-extremities rehabilitation robotics is at least as
good as regular stroke rehabilitation, probably because the robotics increase the training …

Magnetic interaction can be utilized for remote actuation of surgical manipulators. However,
platforms currently available for that purpose have limited workspaces, inadequate field …

The Dampace exoskeleton combines functional exercises resembling activities of daily living
with impairment-targeted force-coordination training. The goal of this paper is to evaluate …

Early prostate cancer detection and treatment are of major importance to reduce mortality
rate. magnetic resonance (MR) imaging provides images of the prostate where an early stage …

In this letter we demonstrate a pneumatic bending actuator for upper-limb assistive wearable
robots which uses thin McKibben muscles in combination with a flexure strip. The actuator …
