Motion planning for gait rehabilitation robotic
In modern technology, rehabilitation devices are used to train the patients suffering from stroke to get back their normal walking ability by forming new neural connections. Hence, neuronal circuits of stroke patients that have been affected by brain lesion will be retrained, resulting in improving...
