Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Amputation of the lower limbs occurs in 6,000 people a year (4.8 per 100,000 population) in Japan, and is a worldwide problem as a cause of gait disturbance. In this study, we constructed a new rehabilitation system that performs walking training by a robot (HAL) from the early stage of amputation of the lower limbs. This makes it possible to walk again with a highly functional prosthesis even if the lower limb is amputated as we get older.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
日本は工学系のロボットは世界一であり、この技術を医療に導入することで、医療ロボットにおいても世界一を目指したい。医療に使用できるロボットは世界で日本製のHAL(Hybrid Assisted Limb)だけである。一方、高齢化による下肢血行障害で下肢切断となる例が世界中で増えており、医療用ロボットHALを下肢切断のリハビリテーションに応用することで、下肢切断者が再び歩けるようになる可能性が増える。
