ARMin Device with the HandSOME Device Attachment
Videos of Lower Limb Rehabilitation
- ZeroG overground gait
- ZeroG maintaining 40lbs of constant body-weight support while simultaneously tracking subjects movement
- ZeroG promotes balance training involving the legs, arms and trunk. After a fall, ZeroG can be reset by simply bouncing in the harness
- With ZeroG, subjects can practice getting off the floor with body-weight support and full safety
- Practicing sit to stand activities under dynamic body-weight support is possible with ZeroG
- Because ZeroG is mounted overhead, practicing obstacles such as steps is possible. Here the subject is provided 30 lbs of body-weight support and if they fall, ZeroG automatically switches to a holding mode
- ZeroG being tested during overground walking
- ZeroG utilizes a custom series-elastic actuator to maintain constant rope force
Videos of Upper Limb Rehabilitation
- ARMin I robot with a chronic stroke patient (December 2005). The patient plays a simple ball game where he controls the position of the handle by moving his hand. The robot supports the patient as much as necessary
- ARMin II robot with a healthy test subject (October 2006)
- ARMin II robot with a healthy test subject (October 2006). A table setting scenario is presented on the computer monitor. The task for the patient is to manipulate virtual objects such as a plate or a glass
- ARMin III robot with a healthy test person during mobilization (November 2007)
