In the continually developing society and the ongoing intensification of the aging population, the demand for rehabilitation medical care is becoming increasingly vigorous. As an emerging technological means, rehabilitation robots integrate the achievements of mechanical engineering, electronic technology, artificial intelligence, and other fields, becoming a key component of rehabilitation medical care. They provide patients with precise, efficient, and personalized rehabilitation treatments, enhancing their quality of life.
A rehabilitation robot is an intelligent device that can assist the human body in completing limb movements. Its aim is to help individuals with disabilities and functional impairments achieve rehabilitation of physiological functions such as movement and cognition through functional compensation and rehabilitation training. Rehabilitation robots have tremendous potential in the fields of rehabilitation and elderly care.
Based on their functions, rehabilitation robots can be divided into functional therapy types and daily living aid types:
Functional therapy rehabilitation robots mainly focus on helping patients recover or strengthen specific physiological functions. Through targeted training and therapeutic methods, they promote rehabilitation. This category includes rehabilitation training robots (such as end-driven, suspension, and exoskeleton rehabilitation robots) and recovery enhancement robots (such as mobile walking aid robots, wearable upper limb exoskeleton rehabilitation robots, and walking assistance lower limb exoskeleton rehabilitation robots).
Daily living aid rehabilitation robots, on the other hand, concentrate on meeting the various needs of patients' daily lives, enhancing their quality of life and self-care abilities. This category includes functional compensation robots (such as intelligent prosthetics, intelligent assistive mechanical arms, and intelligent wheelchairs) and functional aid robots (such as transfer robots, guide robots, intelligent nursing beds, personal hygiene care robots, companionship robots, and feeding robots).
MileBot's exoskeleton rehabilitation robot is a wearable rehabilitation robot consisting of a backpack control box, waist components, exoskeleton components, a touchscreen, and a power adapter.
When patients experience lower limb motor function impairments due to strokes, spinal cord injuries, and other diseases, MileBot's exoskeleton rehabilitation robot can help them perform self-training and rehabilitation under preset programs.
MileBot's exoskeleton rehabilitation robot is equipped with flexible actuators, providing a safe and comfortable experience during rehabilitation training.
Moreover, MileBot rehabilitation robots can provide either active or passive rehabilitation robots for patients in different situations or rehabilitation stages.
