Development Direction of Rehabilitation Technical aids for personal mobility

Rehabilitation assistive device is disabled people (including the elderly, persons with disabilities, trauma) compensation or improve function, improve the quality of life, one of the most direct and effective means to enhance ocial life involved in capacity. Compensation or alternative to the physical barriers for persons with disabilities, enhance or improve their activities of daily living for the elderly, sick person for non-surgical, non-pharmaceutical engineering help restore it to health, ehabilitation assistive device is to help people with disabilities return to society's most basic and the most effective means.
Aids for personal mobility for the basic concepts, classification. Aids for personal mobility for the development of the status quo in China: prostheses, orthoses, wheelchairs cost-effective among the international leading level, production facilities, configuration, service agencies increased year by year the government policy, personnel and capital support. Aids for personal mobility, not only in number and in the field of assistive devices, configure the service is a big gap at the technical level also with the international development front there is a big gap.
The concept of artificial intelligence, intelligent assistive device designed to allow a variety of machines think like a person, with "wisdom" that mimic human brain function command to manipulate the body's other organs, to the "knowledge". Intelligent auxiliary with is used such of science principle, in auxiliary with implementation system in the combination has imitation human brain command body organ action of necessary module, makes the auxiliary with has outside environment changes of ability", "analysis judgment reality situation of ability", "manipulation other organ of ability", "feedback manipulation results of ability", full imitation has human feeling organ collection information, brain analysis inductive finishing information, limb obey brain directive for action of ability, makes the auxiliary with can quickly perception, And make immediate adjustments to accommodate the requirement to complete a task. Intelligent assistive products group: a smart prosthetics, currently, intelligent mobility assistive device, smart home smart wheelchair assistive and environment control, intelligent assistive living, assistive
intelligent information exchange.
Domestic intelligent lower limb prosthesis in China in 94 and have a smart knee joint research. 2009 success domestic intelligent prosthetic pressure knee, used has four connecting rod and pressure cylinder of integration design, using sensor implementation gait and step speed recognition, intelli controller can under wearing who of walking speed automatically adjustment valve open of, real-time adjustment prosthetic of swing speed, filled has omestic intelligent lower limb prosthetic area of blank.
To some extent for intelligent wheelchair said, is based on intelligent wheelchair rehabilitation robot. Is the application of Intelligent robot technology in intelligent wheelchair power wheelchair, blending a variety of fie of study include machine vision, robot navigation and positioning, pattern recognition, sensor fusion and the user interface, also known as intelligent wheelchair-type mobile robot. Smart wheelchairs and compared to traditional wheelchairs, "the brain", "eyes" and "ear", they are computer controlled systems, cameras and laser probes, also has a microphone. The high-end wheelchair seat can free lifting, back free tilt, and wheelchair implementation has butt, convenient ride personnel self-care Shang bed; automatically avoidance barrier bypass, drop, and pour doubled automatically alarm, also may on using who health state real-time detection.
Intelligent mobile auxiliary recession started with studies for many of the lower limb function of the elderly and the disabled, using intelligent assistive device correctly standing and walking training on lower limb function of recovery, and ensure the health of the body as a whole is of great significance. Homemade paraplegics walk training system. By Tsinghua University, and National Research Center for Rehabilitation Technical aids, joint development of domestic paraplegia patients walking training system the system breakthrough has joint reverse driven and waist with dynamic institutions, and movement trajectory planning and the hip knee coordination control, key technology, design has under patients height automatically generated gait trajectory of intelligent more joint coordination movement control system, help paraplegia and the other lower limb movement function obstacles patients for walking training, recovery its walking function.
Intelligent robot rehabilitation robot was developed in recent years a new motor neurons in rehabilitation technology, as an important nch of the medical robot, has become a research hotspot of the international robotics. Exoskeleton-type robot. So-called exoskeleton is a wearable bionic devices, artif ial intelligence, In the health field, the application of the exoskeleton is not only with mechanical legs to paralysis, it can help the natural gait of paraplegic patients out of wheelchairs, walk in; it can teach them how to learn to walk again. Zhejiang University, state key Lab of fluid power transmission and control in the late 90 's commitment to the theoretical research on man-machine integration, flexible exoskeleton and gradually derived human-computer intelligent technology, flexible exoskeleton upper limbs developed control system, is actually an intelligent upper limb orthosis.
