Abstract: A powered lower extremity orthotic (100; 310), including a shank link (105; 305) coupled to an artificial foot (108; 301), a knee mechanism (107; 306) connected to the shank link (105; 305) and a thigh link (103; 307), is controlled by based on signals from various orthotic mounted sensors (122, 124, 126, 127) such that the artificial foot (108; 301) follows a predetermined trajectory defined by at least one Cartesian coordinate.

Abstract: A powered orthotic system, such as an exoskeleton (100), is employed for overground rehabilitation purposes by adapting and adjusting to real-time needs in a rehabilitation situation whereby the system can be initially controlled to perform gait functions for a wearer (109) based on a predetermined level of assistance but the predetermined level of assistance can be varied, based on one or more rehabilitation parameters or specific needs of the wearer (109) undergoing therapy, through the application and adjustment of appropriate variables associated with operation of the system.

IPC: A61F5/00

Abstract: An exoskeleton (100; 204; 304; 404; 504; 602; 702; 802; 902; 1002) includes a control system (120; 205; 305; 405; 505; 603; 703; 803; 903; 1003; 1010) which incorporates a feedback system used to establish and communicate orthosis operational information to a physical therapist (202, 302, 402) and/or to an exoskeleton user (109; 201; 301; 401; 501; 601; 701; 801; 901; 1001). The feedback system can take various forms, including employing sensors (704; 804; 1004; 1010) to establish a feedback ready value and communicating the value through one or more light sources (206; 306; 503; 608) which can be in close proximity to joints of the exoskeleton joints.

Abstract: A gait orthotic system includes a balance aid and a gait orthotic device. The gait orthotic device has a rigid attachment mechanism configured to securely and releasably couple the balance aid to the gait orthotic device. When the balance aid is coupled to the gait orthotic device, the gait orthotic device is supported in a standing position so that a user of the gait orthotic device is able to use his/her hands freely. When the balance aid is not coupled to the gait orthotic device, the user is able to use the balance aid for locomotion. In certain embodiments, the balance aid is a forearm crutch, a walker or a cane, while the rigid attachment mechanism is a clamp with an over-center latch.
