Novel Gait Adaptation and Neuromotor Training Results Using an Active Leg Exoskeleton
Abstract
The gait of every adult is unique and expected to be ingrained within the neuromuscular system. The major scientific question that we ask in this paper if it is possible to alter the gait of healthy individuals using special purpose design of robots and training paradigms. This paper describes novel experimental results with an active leg exoskeleton (ALEX) and a force-field controller (FFC) developed for neuromotor training of gait and rehabilitation of patients with walking disabilities. ALEX is a motorized leg orthosis having a total of 7 DOFs with hip and knee actuated in the sagittal plane. The FFC applies forces on the foot to help the leg move on a desired trajectory. The interaction forces between the subject and the orthosis are designed to be ¿assist-as-needed¿ for safe and effective gait training. Simulations and experimental results with the FFC are presented. Experiments have been performed on six healthy subjects walking on a treadmill. It was shown that a healthy subject could be retrained in about 45 min with ALEX to walk on a treadmill with a considerably altered gait. In the coming months, this powered orthosis will be used for gait training of stroke patients.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
