Abstract :
Rehabilitation system for re-education of walking is aimed for gait training in incomplete spinal cord injured patients soon after the accident. It consists of three systems: actuation, sensory, and cognitive. Actuation system is represented by electrical stimulation. Sensory system makes use of goniometers, gyroscopes, accelerometers, hand pushbuttons, and foot-switches. Cognitive information is delivered to the patient in the form of sensory electrical stimulation, audio, or visual feedback
