Walkbot_G

DESCRIPTION

Walkbot_G is a Medical-Robots from P&S Robotics. It is built for Medical-Assistance, Rehabilitation. Key figures: released 2015.

Walkbot_G is a Walkbot gait rehabilitation robot launched in 2015 that is compatible with both adult and paediatric leg modules, so one system can serve adults and children. Unlike the other models, it does not have the automatic robot leg length adjustment that sets leg length to the patient in 1 mm steps. All Walkbot models are treadmill-based exoskeleton gait trainers. They drive the hip, knee and ankle together with P&S's patented Ankle Joint Drive to prevent foot drag and unstable landing. Dynamic body weight support tracks the patient's vertical movement in real time. Impedance control uses a reaction torque observer instead of physical torque sensors to detect walking intent and adjust joint resistance. The Natural Gait Pattern Generator builds a patient-specific gait from height, weight, limb lengths and shoe size, and augmented-reality games and 3D gait analysis keep patients engaged and track progress. Walkbot is indicated for stroke, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, Guillain-Barre syndrome, multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's disease, and holds MFDS Class 3, US FDA and CE MDR approvals.
