Evaluation of Response and Recovery Times in Upper Limb Loading with a Threshold-Based Controller
This study assesses response and recovery times during upper-limb loading trials using a closed-loop controller with handles of an instrumented walker. The feasibility of a closed-loop controller for enhancing seated posture after spinal cord injury was investigated. Findings suggest potential benefits in postural control with the use of this technology.
