A correction for axis misalignment in the joint angle curves representing knee movement in gait analysis.
This paper derives a simple mathematical model relating changes in the orientations of the two Cartesian coordinate systems involved in recording knee movement and the varus-valgus and the internal-external rotation angles for describing the knee's motion. Rotation matrices are given for changing the orientations of the two Cartesian coordinate systems in such a way that the quadratic variation...

متن کاملPowered lower limb orthoses for gait rehabilitation.
Bodyweight supported treadmill training has become a prominent gait rehabilitation method in leading rehabilitation centers. This type of locomotor training has many functional benefits but the labor costs are considerable. To reduce therapist effort, several groups have developed large robotic devices for assisting treadmill stepping. A complementary approach that has not been adequately explo...
متن کاملGait parameter adaptation for lower-limb exoskeletons
The field of exoskeletons and assistive orthotic devices is a multidisciplinary issue in the halfway between medicine and robotics. Within the robotic discipline, bipedal robot gaits are generated as a function of parameters such as stride length, foot clearance and body height. These features allow to adapt the gait to different surface characteristics. However, biped robot gaits do not look a...
