Vision-Based Fuzzy Control System with Intention Detection for Smart Walkers: Enhancing Usability for Stroke Survivors with Unilateral Upper Limb Impairments

ICRA 2025

Mobility impairments, particularly those caused by stroke-induced hemiparesis, significantly impact independence and quality of life. Current smart walker controllers operate by using input forces from the user to control linear motion and input torques to dictate rotational movement; however, becau

Evaluating Gait Symmetry with a Smart Robotic Walker: A Novel Approach to Mobility Assessment

IROS 2024poster

Gait asymmetry, a consequence of various neurological or physical conditions such as aging and stroke, detrimentally impacts bipedal locomotion, causing biomechanical alterations, increasing the risk of falls and reducing quality of life. Addressing this critical issue, this paper introduces a novel…

Optimal Integration of Hybrid FES-Exoskeleton for Precise Knee Trajectory Control

IROS 2024poster

This paper introduces a novel hybrid torque allocation method for improving wearability and mobility in integrated functional electrical stimulation (FES) of the quadriceps muscles and powered exoskeleton systems. Our proposed approach leverages a hierarchical closed-loop controller for knee joint p…
