In recent years, rehabilitation robots have become increasingly popular in the field of healthcare, able to mimic the movements of a therapist and enhance patients' mobility through carefully designed control methods. A team from the Automation College of Beijing Institute of Technology, led by Kexin Hu, Zhongjing Ma, Suli Zou, Jian Li, and Haoran Ding, in collaboration with collaborators from the University College London, has recently proposed a novel impedance sliding mode control method that combines stiffness scheduling technology, which has brought significant advancements to rehabilitation robot systems.
“Rehabilitation Robots Market” from 2024-2034 with covered segments (Rehabilitation Robots Market, By Type (Exoskeleton Robots, Assistive Robots, Therapeutic Robots, and Others), By End-Users (Hospitals, Rehabilitation Centers, and Others), and Regional Forecast, 2024-2034), which provides the perfect mix of market strategies, and industrial expertise with new cutting-edge technology to give the best experience.
Robotics is becoming an increasingly important aspect of rehabilitation. It is predicted that global sales of rehabilitation robotics will exceed $1 billion by 2030. This raises the question of what the current applications of robotic systems are and what new developments can be expected in the coming years.
Every year, about 800,000 new stroke cases are reported in the United States, often causing patients problems with both neurological and physical motor control. Disruptions in the mobility of the arms and hands, in particular, can have devastating impacts on stroke patients’ quality of life.
