The effect of asymmetric movement support on muscle activity during Lokomat guided gait in able-bodied individuals.

BACKGROUND:To accommodate training for unilaterally affected patients (e.g. stroke), the Lokomat (a popular robotic exoskeleton-based gait trainer) provides the possibility to set the amount of movement guidance for each leg independently. Given the interlimb couplings, such asymmetrical settings ma...
