A Propulsion Neuroprosthesis Improves Overground Walking in Community-Dwelling Individuals After Stroke
A Propulsion Neuroprosthesis Improves Overground Walking in Community-Dwelling Individuals After Stroke 150 150 IEEE Open Journal of Engineering in Medicine and Biology (OJEMB)
Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a common neuromotor intervention whereby electrically evoked dorsiflexor muscle contractions assist foot clearance during walking. Plantarflexor neurostimulation has recently emerged to assist and retrain gait… read more

Wearable Loop Sensors for Knee Flexion Monitoring: Dynamic Measurements on Human Subjects
Wearable Loop Sensors for Knee Flexion Monitoring: Dynamic Measurements on Human Subjects 150 150 IEEE Open Journal of Engineering in Medicine and Biology (OJEMB)
Goals: We have recently introduced a new class of wearable loop sensors for joint flexion monitoring that overcomes limitations in the state-of-the-art. Our previous studies reported a proof-of-concept on a… read more

Overview of Radar-Based Gait Parameter Estimation Techniques for Fall Risk Assessment
Overview of Radar-Based Gait Parameter Estimation Techniques for Fall Risk Assessment 150 150 IEEE Open Journal of Engineering in Medicine and Biology (OJEMB)
Current methods for fall risk assessment rely on Quantitative Gait Analysis (QGA) using costly optical tracking systems, which are often only available at specialized laboratories that may not be easily… read more
