DOI: 10.1161/strokeaha.122.041480
Abstract: Background: Robot-assisted arm training is generally delivered in the robot-like manner of planar or mechanical 3-dimensional movements. It remains unclear whether integrating upper extremity (UE) natural coordinated patterns into a robotic exoskeleton can improve outcomes.… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2025.1583142
Abstract: Introduction Controlling a powered lower-limb exoskeleton may increase the demand for cognitive resources due to mechanical constraints and assisting torques that disrupt natural movement. Method This study employed a dual-task paradigm to investigate cognitive-motor interferences… read more here.
