TAGGED WITH rehabilitation
AI-powered artificial muscles made from pliable materials are reshaping recovery, from stroke rehabilitation to prosthetic design. These machines help people regain motion, strength, and confidence.
Researchers at ETH Zurich have developed an innovative hand exoskeleton that helps persons after stroke re-learn how to grasp. Its accordion-like structure makes it light, robust and easy to integrate into everyday life.
The affordable wearable measures foot pressure and could improve stroke and Parkinson's therapy.
In this episode, we cover Harvard's soft wearable robot that learns a patient's intent and provides just-enough support, helping stroke and ALS patients regain independence in everyday tasks.

Paired with custom control software, Össur's powered knee prosthesis helped study participants sit, stand and walk more easily.
MIT CSAIL researchers enhance robotic precision with sophisticated tactile sensors in the palm and agile fingers, setting the stage for improvements in human-robot interaction and prosthetic technology.
In this episode, we discuss a breakthrough from ETH Zurich to mimic natural foot signals to the brain using state of the art neuroprosthetics.
