Exoskeleton gait training robot

The Application of Exoskeleton gait training system

Exoskeleton gait training system were found to have excellent efficiency in locomotor recovery in the diseases related to the neuro rehabilitation, such as stroke, especially when combined with conventional physical therapy rather than conventional therapy alone.

Compared to the conventional therapy, the robotic gait training system, generally, provides, in 1 training session, at least 1000 steps which is 10 times more than conventional therapy.

Also, the robot system requires 1 therapist whereas conventional therapy need more than 1 therapist. Lastly, patients’ training pattern is reproducible with robot system, so patients can learn the gait with correct way. On the other hand, the result of conventional therapy is dependent on therapist’s personal skills.

There is increasing evidence that repeated practice, intensive training and task specific exercises result in better gait ehabilitation. The Exoskeleton gait training system is one of the best way to enable these three and encourage of neuroplasticity.

The Target of the Exoskeleton gait training system

This exoskeleton gait training system is designed to support controlled and repetitive walking practice in research and rehabilitation settings. It provides a structured environment for exploring walking patterns and functional mobility. The system is suitable for use in a variety of facilities, including university hospitals, general hospitals, rehabilitation centers, geriatric hospitals, industrial accident facilities, and elderly care or wellness centers.

Types of the Walking Device

There are several types of exoskeleton gait training systems designed to support controlled and repetitive walking practice in research or rehabilitation settings.

Adult Research & Training Device

This system is designed to provide structured gait practice for adults. It supports precise and repeatable movement patterns using hip, knee, and ankle joint drive motors.

The device is built with interactive, functional, and motivating features, offering a cost-efficient and standardized way to explore locomotion patterns. It is suitable for studies focusing on adults with movement or mobility limitations.

Pediatric Research & Training Device

This device is designed for children within specific height ranges and is tailored to support safe and reproducible walking practice. It incorporates ankle drive motors to facilitate balanced movement patterns and provides detailed data on gait mechanics,

including joint motion, kinematics, and kinetic forces. The system includes age-appropriate design features such as eye-level playgrounds and interactive augmented reality programs to enhance engagement and participation in research settings.

Dual-Use Gait Training Device

This system is compatible with both adults and children, offering adjustable robotic orthoses and optional modules to support structured gait practice. It provides a standardized environment for controlled exploration of walking patterns and functional mobility in a research or study context.

The Benefits of Using the Walking Device
The first advantage is the
device features a gait training system designed to support consistent and guided walking practice. It applies kinematic-based gait mechanisms to provide a natural walking motion and assist users in maintaining proper foot positioning during exercises.
The second advantage is the exoskeleton gait training system is engineered
to support natural walking motion. The device applies kinematic and kinetic guidance to assist users during gait exercises, providing consistent and guided practice for improved engagement and movement coordination.
The third benefit of using the Exoskeleton gait training system is that
this walking device is interactive. It means that this device can provide an intelligent interactive mode that can automatically accommodate spasticity or associated stiffness, the assistance & resistance forces, walking speed, and knee, hip, as well as ankle joint kinetics to maximize an automatic locomotor relearning retention, plus a full recovery. The therapeutic speed is automatically adjusted to fit the patient’s muscle power. The treadmill, robot, and patients can be mutually interactive through sensing the condition of the patient. When the patient reaches the targeted power, the therapeutic speed of the treadmill will go up by 0.1 km/h to fit the patient’s condition. Meanwhile, if the patient feels the resistance during the training, the therapeutic speed will fall down.
The fourth benefit of using the Exoskeleton gait training system is that
this walking device is functional. Meaning, this device provides a variety of functional rehabilitation exercises which are associated with walking such as kicking balls, playing the game, and many more.
These will help to optimize neuromotor control of locomotion in clients. Not only that but this walking device also provides various training mode to focus on the patient’s body condition.
The fifth benefit of using this walking device is that this device is economical. Meaning, this device provides a cost-effective return in the long-run.
The last advantage is this device can support users
to reach their exercise goals by providing them motivation. The device is designed with 3D AR exercise games to increase user engagement and offer interactive natural or virtual environments for walking practice, allowing users to participate in training in a more enjoyable way.
