Rehabilitation robotics have shown great promise to deliver physical therapy after a neurological injury. However, many of the current devices have high cost and long set-up time, limiting the adoption of the technology in clinics and homes. We aim to design and develop new technology that is low-cost and sustainable to provide accessible rehabilitation to everyone.

Passive Mechanical Add-on for Treadmill Exercise->
In this project, we develop a passive system that can deliver gait rehabilitation following a stroke. We designed the system using a configuration of pulleys and elastic tendons to couple the movement of the healthy unimpaired leg with the impaired side, while allowing for active user participation.
Combining 3D Printing with Computer Vision->
To deliver hand physical therapy at home we aim to leverage accessible 3D printing technologies with mobile camera's. The 3D prints are tracked using computer vision, while visual feedback is provided through gamification to promote user engagement.
This project focuses on the design and development of a low-cost, portable robotic device for sensorimotor rehabilitation of the hand after stroke. The device is paired with virtual training environments, aiming to enhance recovery through engaging, personalized therapy.
Rehabilitation Technology for all->
This project investigates how to bridge the gap between university research and end users through two case studies: the portable hand rehabilitation device and the robotic ball. Both focus on intuitive design and low-cost manufacturing to make rehabilitation solutions accessible.
