A neuromechanics-based powered ankle exoskeleton to assist walking post-stroke: a feasibility study

BACKGROUND: In persons post-stroke, diminished ankle joint function can contribute to inadequate gait propulsion. To target paretic ankle impairments, we developed a neuromechanics-based powered ankle exoskeleton. Specifically, this exoskeleton supplies plantarflexion assistance that is proportional...
