Lambda

DESCRIPTION

Lambda is a Medical-Robots from Lambda Health System. It is built for Rehabilitation.

Lambda is Lambda Health System's robotic end-effector device for the rehabilitation and assessment of lower-limb impairments, aimed especially at neurological patients such as people recovering from a stroke. The patient sits in a reclining therapy chair facing a large curved screen while the feet are attached to two robotic leg mechanisms, so single- or multi-joint leg movements can be trained in passive, active-assisted or active modes from a very early stage of rehabilitation. Transfer directly from a wheelchair takes at most two minutes, even for heavily affected patients, and a session is set up in about a minute. It offers more than 50 customisable therapy modes, including classic exercises such as cycling, leg press and knee flexion, and a learning mode in which the therapist moves the robot's leg and the robot then replicates the movement. Six exergames with auto-adaptive difficulty target strength, coordination, symmetry, foot lifting and selectivity, optionally with a head-mounted display, and the robot gives coherent haptic, visual and auditory feedback. Built-in evaluation tools measure muscle strength and power and generate progress reports. The robot runs on a real-time operating system, checking leg positions every ten milliseconds and applied forces every millisecond, with hardware and software safety checks, and it is developed, assembled and coded in Switzerland.
