Adaptive Hip Exoskeleton for Stroke Gait Enhancement

Brief Summary

This work will focus on new algorithms for robotic exoskeletons and testing these in human subject tests. Individuals who have previously had a stroke will walk while wearing a robotic exoskeleton on a specialized treadmill as well as during other movement tasks (e.g. over ground, stairs, ramps). The study will compare the performance of the advanced algorithm with not using the device to determine the clinical benefit.
