Background Peripheral nerve injuries and central neurologic conditions can result in
extensive disabilities. In cases with unilateral impairment, assessing the asymmetry between …

Bilateral rehabilitation robotics can allow hemiplegia patients to regain the cooperative
capabilities of both arms by synchronized coordination movements. Furthermore, the …

Executing voluntary motor actions in the upper extremities after a stroke is frequently
challenging and frustrating. Although spontaneous motor recovery can occur, reorganizing …

In this paper, a novel mirror visual feedback-based (MVF) bilateral neurorehabilitation
system with surface electromyography (sEMG)-based patient active force assessment was …

Bilateral rehabilitation systems with bilateral or unilateral assistive robots have been
developed for hemiplegia patients to recover their one-side paralysis. However, the …

Almost half of stroke patients report impaired function of the upper limb and hand. Stability of
the trunk is required for the proper movement of the body, including the legs and arms. The …

Background Most activities of daily life (ADL) require cooperative bimanual movements. A
unilateral stroke may severely impair bimanual ADL. How patients with stroke (re) learn to …

Background A stroke frequently results in impaired performance of activities of daily life.
Many of these are highly dependent on effective coordination between the two arms. In the …

Background Since a stroke can impair bimanual activities, enhancing bimanual cooperation
through motor skill learning may improve neurorehabilitation. Therefore, robotics and …

Bimanual coordination is essential for the performance of many everyday tasks. There are
several types of bimanually coordinated movements, classified according to whether the …
