Study on automatic speed adaptation treadmills
2015
This paper examines and summarizes the research trends in the field of rehabilitation robotics for treadmills that automatically adapt to the walker's desired speed. Treadmill training is a method of ambulatory rehabilitation for patients who have lost their ambulatory function before or after a joint replacement surgery, or from arthritis, a stroke, or a spinal cord injury. The existing treadmill training method alone has been claimed to have a positive effect on the patient's condition; during training, however, a problem incurs in which conscious brain functions needed for ambulation when walking or running at a fixed speed are hindered. To solve this problem, we briefly introduce and compare a self-paced treadmill and its methods of use.
