What are some examples of soft robotic actuators used in wearable robotics for rehabilitation therapy and physical assistance, and how do they provide customizable support, adaptive control, or therapeutic exercise for individuals with neurological conditions, musculoskeletal disorders, or mobility impairments in clinical or home settings?
What are some examples of soft robotic actuators used in wearable robotics for rehabilitation therapy and physical assistance, and how do they provide customizable support, adaptive control, or therapeutic exercise for individuals with neurological conditions, musculoskeletal disorders, or mobility impairments in clinical or home settings?
Examples include soft wearable exoskeletons, pneumatic muscle actuators, and textile-based orthoses designed for upper limb assistance or lower limb rehabilitation. These actuators apply assistive forces, guide movement patterns, or provide resistance for therapeutic exercises, promoting motor recovery, muscle strengthening, or functional improvement in individuals undergoing rehabilitation therapy for neurological or musculoskeletal conditions.
