| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A novel gait rehabilitation system for walking rehabilitation of hemiplegic patients with convalescence stroke is developed in this study, which integrated a non-invasive functional electrical stimulation (FES) device with a robotic system based on a designed split belt treadmill and a pelvis control sub-systems. The system, in order to recover the locomotor function, aimed at inducing hemiplegic patients to actively mechanical training. During gait training, electrical stimulation to the Tibialis anterior and the medial gastrocnemius muscle was automatically activated by the split treadmill walking. Electrical stimulation of the quadriceps and hamstring was also automatically triggered by the pelvis support robot. The feasibility of the gait rehabilitation system for motor learning of the lower limbs was preliminarily verified in experiments.
