Gait Initiation With Electromyographically Triggered Electrical Stimulation in People With Partial Paralysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Functional electrical stimulation (FES) facilitates ambulatory function after paralysis by activating the muscles of the lower extremities. Individuals with incomplete spinal cord injury (iSCI) ...
Electromyogram-Triggered Functional Electrical Stimulation-Assisted Walking After Partial Paralysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Objective: Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) triggered by manual switch provides brace-free ambulation to wheelchair dependent individuals with spinal cord injuries. An electromyogram (EMG)-based ...
A Locking Compliant Device Inspired by the Anatomy of the Spine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A device reminiscent of the mammalian spine has been designed and built with the ability to lock each individual joint in a string of ball joints. The assembly may be controlled in a manner ...
