And the Robotics Trends RoboBusiness Leadership Summit 2011, held last week in Boston, was no exception. Optimism reigned supreme throughout the two-day event, reflecting a view that the robotics industry was now back and stronger than ever, following months of slowed performance brought on by the recession. |
Robotic rehabilitation systems are those robotics technologies that support the restoration of function following physical trauma, medical intervention, or the advent of disease, with most commercial versions assisting with recovery from neurological disorders such as stroke. The devices use computer-controlled robotics technology to move body parts in a consistent, repeatable manner, providing patients with the physiological and psychological benefits of motion and exercise. In some cases, the repetitive motion provided by robotic rehabilitation technology facilitates the rewiring of neural pathways around damaged areas, restoring partial or full mobility (a phenomenon known as neural plasticity)...
