Abstract
There is a description of the first stage of researches aimed at equipping with the vision system (“VS”) for the rehabilitation simulator being developed for the rehabilitation of spinal patients who suffer paraplegia. Based on the VS information it is supposed to develop some software tools to solve the issue of mechatronics of the bio-training simulator in order to create artificial motions of the paralyzed legs imitating natural legged movement. There’s discussed a hardware- and software of the system, methods of data-acquisition concerning the leg movements of a healthy person. There’re given results of the first experiments aimed at acquiring data needed for the analysis of the geometrical parameters of the leg movement. There’ve been received some accuracy assessments to define angles and angular velocities in the hip, knee joint, and ankle joint.
This research has been performed with the support of RFBR grants No. 11-01-12060-ofi-m-2011, No 12-08-12030-ofi-m-2012.
