Abstract

Whereas there are several commercially-available exoskeletons for over-ground gait training in adults, there is no commercially-available system designed for such purpose for pediatric patients. The overall goal of this ongoing study is to develop a pediatric exoskeleton to enable over-ground gait training in children with cerebral palsy (CP). The portion of the study herein reported is focused on the generation of physiological movement patterns using such exoskeleton.
