Rationale in Designing a New System for Gait Rehabilitation

Article Preview

Abstract:

Our multidisciplinary team decided to concentrate efforts in developing a new gait rehabilitation system, able to respond to most of the requirements of an ideal training system. Therefore, we identified the system’s necessary, we compared the costs and the benefits of the existing concepts and systems, and we developed the concept and the design of the system called RELIVE. Developing this system makes the object of a funded national research and development project.
