Abstract: Exercise robot suitable for rehabilitation and methods of its operation are provided. In particular a method in which the exercise robot learns an exercise movement on the basis of movements conducted by the aid of a human assistant holding the leg of a patient and moving the leg with muscular form to conduct an exercise movement. The rehabilitation robot actively accompanies the exercise movement in an active compliance mode and records the movement so as to determine an exercise movement stored in the control unit of the device. The rehabilitation robot can then produce the determined exercise in an exercise mode.

Abstract: The present invention concerns exercise robot suitable for rehabilitation and methods of its operation. The invention concerns in particular a method in which the exercise robot learns an exercise movement on the basis of movements conducted by the aid of a human assistant holding the leg of a patient and moving said leg with muscular form to conduct an exercise movement. The rehabilitation robot actively accompanies the exercise movement in an active compliance mode and records the movement so as to determine an exercise movement stored in the control unit of the device. The rehabilitation robot can then produce the determined exercise in an exercise mode.

Abstract: The present invention relates to devices and methods for exercising the lower limbs, in particular for exercising lower limbs. The devices are suitable for training the lower limbs of persons suffering from paraplegia or hemiplegia or musculoskeletal disorders in general. In some aspects, the present invention relates to powered articulated systems (ASs) and to the rehabilitation by aid of said ASs. The parallel or hybrid ASs of the invention are based on a parallel or hybrid, lambda-type framework and are controlled by a data processing unit. The ASs are preferably controlled by a closed-loop, real time control system.
