Rehabilitation robots are designed to help patients regain or improve their physical abilities after an injury, illness, or surgery.

Gait trainers are rehabilitation robots that provide support and assistance to patients while they walk, helping them to improve their gait and balance.

Exoskeletons are wearable robotic devices that provide support and stability to the patient's body, helping them to move more easily and perform everyday tasks.

Robotic arms are rehabilitation robots that provide assistance and support to patients with upper limb impairments, helping them to regain or improve their arm and hand function.

Rehabilitation robots offer several benefits, including increased patient motivation and engagement, reduced risk of injury, and improved patient outcomes and recovery time.

Surgical robots are not typically used in rehabilitation therapy. They are primarily used to assist surgeons during surgeries.

Rehabilitation robots collect data on the patient's movements through sensors embedded in the robot's structure. These sensors measure various parameters such as joint angles, muscle activity, and force.

AI plays a significant role in rehabilitation robots. It is used to analyze data collected from the patient's movements, provide personalized therapy plans, and control the robot's movements and provide assistance.

Improved patient outcomes and recovery time is a benefit, not a challenge, associated with the use of rehabilitation robots.

The future outlook for rehabilitation robots is promising, with increased adoption and integration into clinical practice, development of more advanced and sophisticated robots, and reduced cost and improved accessibility of the robots.

Ekso Bionics, ReWalk Robotics, and Cyberdyne are all examples of commercially available exoskeletons for rehabilitation.

Rehabilitation robots provide feedback to the patient during therapy through visual displays, auditory cues, and haptic feedback.

The primary goal of gait training using rehabilitation robots is to retrain the patient's neural pathways, helping them to regain or improve their walking ability.

Increased cost of therapy is a potential challenge, not a benefit, of using rehabilitation robots in therapy.

Rehabilitation robots help patients regain or improve their physical abilities by providing physical assistance and support, enabling them to perform exercises and movements that would otherwise be difficult or impossible.
