| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Robotic therapy, especially for lower extremity function, currently stands at the early stage of development. The next generation of robot-aided neuro-rehabilitation requires assessing the effect of interventions correctly and collecting clinical evidence to develop an efficacious intervention. Stroke rehabilitation requires motor coordination. By combining the method of “synergy assessment” and the “robotic therapy” developed by the Osaka University and MIT researchers' team, we developed a novel robotic-intervention test and validated it in the framework of synergies and dynamic primitives (submovements, oscillators, and impedance).
