Is it possible to use a network of springs to make up for what the muscles do during walking and hence assist gait? This study shows the potential of the ExoNET device to reproduce the torques generated by your muscles while you walk. We feel that this structural design can guide devices in the future and may lead to clinical tools that are lightweight, unintimidating, easy to use, and inexpensive.

Can you build a minimally-actuated exo-robot as a wearable orthosis? Maybe one that is most simply built out of springs? It may not do everything, but what can you do? The secret is to allow networks of springs, and structural optimization algorithm that tells us how to build it.

This system is a very straightforward use of the looking glass display system combined with a tracking device called the Leap? tracking device. It tells the computer where your hands are, and then we ask the patient to do a bimanual task to move a virtual tray to different locations in space without letting a ball roll off.

The Center for Aphasia ÄÛBÑо¿Ôº and Treatment offers a variety of groups and classes for people with aphasia who are living in the community. All classes help the participant practice communicating in a supportive group environment.

This multi-site collaborative research study will explore the effectiveness of different strategies aimed at improving or maintaining your physical activity.
