MOVE ON
-------- PROTOTYPE --------- PURPOSE: To design a prototype of a temporary training device that assists patients who have experienced a stroke to recover faster and overcome fine and gross motor disabilities. The neuroelectric signals of some stroke victims are too low for complete muscle contraction. Move On is an exoskeletal orthosis that is strapped to a person's leg, hip and lower torso. The device senses adynamic muscle signals and translates them into a desired movement. It can also help ...[More Information]
