Cable-Driven Body Weight Support for Gait Rehabilitation

Summary

A Purdue University researcher has developed a new cable-driven body weight support system for use in gait rehabilitation training. The BWS system is expected to have the ability to compensate for any amount of a patient's body weight in all three dimensions during gait rehabilitation training. This BWS system is also expected to provide larger workspace, lower equipment cost, ease of assembly and disassembly, and superior reconfigurability.
