Abstract

A mechatronic system for neurorehabilitation of motion system of the human lower limbs is presented. Moreover, the structure of the complex and its components - feet training device with acupressure effect on feet, half-bed standing frame (verticalizer), lower limbs exoskeleton to operate them in case of loss of mobility or for active workouts are presented. The complex is designed to help patients who have lost the mobility of the lower limbs, or to work with athletes or astronauts on different stages of rehabilitation.
