A robotic haptic stimulator comprises a robotic mount which is configured to move a haptic stimulation device. The robotic mount can preferably move the haptic stimulation device in three-dimensional space. Movement in the x, y and/or z directions may be independently controlled and may be referenced to a designated point or position that may be associated with the human body. Lidar may be used to obtain information regarding the location/distance of one or more parts of a user for use in controlling the position of the haptic stimulation device. Movement of the haptic stimulation device may emulate movement of other objects and/or be synchronized to video or sound.

The innovation is a replica of hands to massage and bring comfort and relaxation; and largely replace the need for a masseuse or masseur. Features are incorporated into the innovation include being strong, agile, and light.

A hippotherapy device includes a saddle for receiving a person thereon, a programmable movement control, and an automatic movement device for automatically moving the saddle according to a movement pattern program. The program specifies a sequence of target values of positions and orientations of the saddle in the locality of the movement device in order to execute the movement pattern. The hippotherapy device further includes a person securing device having a main support on which a body strap is mounted, at least one sensor for detecting at least one physical variable characterizing the body posture of the person on the saddle, and an auxiliary control device configured to compare expected values of the physical variable with current values of the physical variable detected by the sensor, and to trigger an associated safety function, if a deviation of the current values from the expected values exceeds a predetermined tolerance threshold.

An orthosis provides a wearer at least one of forearm supination, forearm pronation, shoulder internal rotation, shoulder external rotation, shoulder adduction, shoulder abduction, shoulder flexion, shoulder extension, elbow flexion, and elbow extension. It includes a shoulder assembly adapted to be secured to a wearer's shoulder and an upper arm assembly connected to the shoulder assembly and adapted to be secured around a wearer's upper arm. The upper arm assembly defines an upper arm assembly axis. A wrist assembly is adapted to be secured around a wearer's wrist. The wrist assembly defines a wrist assembly axis. A splint arm assembly includes an upper splint arm, a lower splint arm, and a pivot pivotally connecting the upper splint arm to the lower splint arm. The upper splint arm adjustably connects to the upper arm assembly and the lower split, arm adjustably connects to the wrist assembly.

The walking training device includes: a robot leg attached to one leg of a trainee; a treadmill; a load distribution sensor that detects a distribution of a load received from a sole of the trainee; and a walking state distinguishing unit that determines whether the one leg is in a swinging leg state; a control unit that performs a predetermined bending-extending control for the swinging leg state of the one leg by the robot leg when the one leg is in the swinging leg state; a measuring unit that measures a clearance between the one leg in the swinging leg state and the treadmill. The control unit changes control content of the predetermined bending-extending control so that the one leg does not contact the belt of the treadmill during extending control of the one leg, when the clearance is less than a specified value.

Disclosed herein is a robotic system comprising a robotic arm, an end effector coupled to a distal end of a robotic arm, one or more cameras, and a processors configured to construct a three-dimensional (3D) model of a user based on received data from the one or more cameras, identify automatically a target therapy point on the user based on the constructed 3D model, and actuate the end effector to apply a therapy to the target therapy point.

Disclosed herein is a brace for regeneration of tissue in a knee comprising a sleeve and a first strut; where the first strut comprises an upper portion comprising a first jig; where the first jig comprises a slot for hosting a first strap that is in contact with the sleeve; a central portion that comprises a central strut that is in fluid communication with an actuator located on a first side of the knee that imposes a force on the knee; where the force is inclined at an angle to a longitudinal axis of the first strut; and a lower portion that comprises a second jig; where the second jig comprises a slot for hosting a second strap that contacts the sleeve at an opposite end relative to a position that the first strap contacts the sleeve.

Provided is a wearable apparatus for assisting muscular strength including a first rotary member, a first side of which is located at an upper portion of a shoulder of a wearer and a second side of which is located at a back thereof, a second rotary member, a first side of which is coupled to the second side of the first rotary member and a second side of which moves upward and downward, a first connecting part, a first side of which is coupled to the second side of the second rotary member, and a second side of which is located at an outer side surface of the wearer, a third rotary member, a first side of which is coupled to the second side of the first connecting part, and a fourth rotary member, a first side of which is coupled to the second side of the third rotary member.

A health care device includes a health care body for positioning a body part of a user, so as to maintain a first specific positional relationship with the body part, wherein the body part has an acupoint; an acupoint work piece for performing a health care work onto the use through the acupoint; and a work piece holder having a first end connected to the health care body and a second end for fixing the acupoint work piece, so that under the first specific positional relationship, the acupoint work piece performs the health care work under the condition that the acupoint work piece has a second specific positional relationship with the acupoint. A health care body, method and system are also provided.

A rehabilitation glove based on a bidirectional driver of a honeycomb imitating structure, including five bidirectional drivers and a cotton glove. The drivers are fixed to a back of the glove through hook and loop fasteners. Each driver includes a hollow buckling air bag in a continuous bent state, a middle guide layer in a continuous bent state and a hollow stretching air bag. The buckling air bag and the middle guide layer are symmetrically arranged, and the stretching air bag in a straightened state is arranged below the middle guide layer. A novel bidirectional driver of a honeycomb imitating structure is provided, which may provide a patient with rehabilitation training in two degrees of freedom: buckling and stretching. A control algorithm of the bidirectional driver is further provided to perform force control output for the driver, which may better help the patient recover hand functions.
