This study explored the effects of a modular overground exoskeleton on plantar pressure distribution in healthy individuals and with Acquired Brain Injury (ABI). The research involved 21 participants, including ABI patients controls, who used unique adaptable configurations. primary objective was to assess how these configurations, along factors such as muscle strength spasticity, influenced distribution. results revealed significant differences pressures among strongly by exoskeleton’s...
In recent years, the prevalence of acquired brain injury (ABI) has been on rise, leading to impaired gait functionality in affected individuals. Traditional exoskeletons are typically rigid and bilateral lack adaptability. To address this, STELO, a pioneering modular gait-assistive device, was developed. This device can be externally configured with joint modules cater diverse impairments each patient, aiming enhance adaptability efficiency. study aims assess safety usability initial...
