DEVICE

Soft robotic exosuit

A soft robotic exosuit is a textile-based system worn on the waist and paretic lower limb that provides assistive torques via cables connecting the front and back of the ankle to anchor points on the shank. The exosuit provides dorsiflexion assistance during swing phase for foot clearance and plantarflexion assistance during stance phase for propulsion delivered synchronously based on integrated sensors detecting the wearer's gait pattern.

DEVICE

Propulsion neuroprosthesis

A neuroprosthesis is a textile-based, surface electrical stimulation system worn on the waist and paretic lower limb that delivers stimulation assistance via electroconductive pads placed on the skin over the target muscles. The neuroprosthesis provides coordinated dorsiflexor stimulation during swing phase for foot clearance and plantarflexor stimulation during stance phase for propulsion, delivered synchronously based on integrated sensors detecting the wearer's gait pattern.
