Background Sensory reafferents are crucial to correct our posture and movements, both
reflexively and in a cognitively driven manner. They are also integral to developing and …

We developed an untethered robotic system that provides walking-related sensory feedback
remapped non-invasively to the wearerâ\euro™ s back. Using the so-called FeetBack …

Background For people with lower-limb amputations, wearing a prosthetic limb helps restore
their motor abilities for daily activities. However, the prosthesis's potential benefits are …

Foot progression angle gait (FPA) modification is an important part of rehabilitation for a
variety of neuromuscular and musculoskeletal diseases. While wearable haptic biofeedback …

Background Postural balance and gait training is important for treating persons with
functional impairments, however current systems are generally not portable and are unable …

Objectives The objectives are to determine neural dynamics during gait using electro-
encephalography and source localization, and to investigate the attentional demand during …

Wearable haptic technology has been shown to be effective for motion training and
rehabilitation. However, one challenge is providing multiple intuitive tactile feedback during …

Background Although significant progress has been achieved in developing sensory
augmentation methods to improve standing balance, attempts to extend this research to …

Input from the foot plays an essential part in perceiving support surfaces and determining
kinematic events in human walking. To simulate adequate tactile pressure inputs under …

Anthropological and biomechanical research suggests that the human foot evolved a unique
design for propulsion and support. In theory, the arch and toes must play an important role …
