These systems include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Gait Training Robot<\/strong>: Designed for patients with hemiplegia due to stroke, this robot assists in walking rehabilitation by using an exoskeleton that supports the affected leg. It mirrors the movements of the healthy leg, promoting natural gait patterns. Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) is applied to stimulate muscle contractions, facilitating smoother movement. The system can be adapted for patients with paraplegia by attaching the exoskeleton to both legs, with pre-programmed walking motions to aid in gait restoration. <a href=\"https:\/\/robocre.com\/2019\/12\/23\/takehiro_iwami\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Robocre<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Tabletop Upper Limb Rehabilitation Robot<\/strong>: This device targets arm rehabilitation for stroke patients. Equipped with omni-wheels and force sensors, it moves in response to the patient&#8217;s applied force, allowing for adjustable training loads based on the patient&#8217;s condition. The system incorporates augmented reality (AR) to enhance engagement, providing visual cues through AR goggles to guide movements, thereby increasing patient motivation during therapy. <a href=\"https:\/\/robocre.com\/2019\/12\/23\/takehiro_iwami\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Robocre<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Seated Balance Device<\/strong>: Aimed at improving trunk stability, this device helps patients develop better balance and core strength, which are essential for daily activities and overall mobility. <a href=\"https:\/\/robocre.com\/2019\/12\/23\/takehiro_iwami\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Robocre<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These AI-driven systems are designed to alleviate the burden on therapists by providing consistent and tailored rehabilitation support, ultimately aiming to extend healthy life expectancy and improve the quality of life for patients.
