Sensory rehabilitation in pediatric patients with traumatic spinal cord injury is challenging due to the ongoing development of their nervous systems. However, these sensory problems often result nonuse impaired limb, which disturbs limb and leads overuse contralateral other physical or psychological issues that may persist. Here, we introduce a soft nanomembrane sensor-enabled wearable glove system wirelessly delivers haptic sensation from hand tactile feedback responses for impairment assistance. The smart uses gold nanomembranes, copper-elastomer composites, laser-induced graphene sensitive detection pressure, temperature, strain changes. nanomaterial sensors are integrated low-profile actuators wireless flexible electronics offer real-time feedback. system's thin-film demonstrate 98% 97% accuracy detecting pressure finger flexion, respectively, along coverage real-life temperature changes as an effective tool. Collectively, upper-limb assistance embodies latest materials technology incorporate miniaturized maximize its compatibility human users, offering promising solution patient rehabilitation.

The integration of neural networks into robotic exoskeletons for physical rehabilitation has become popular due to their ability interpret complex physiological signals. Surface electromyography (sEMG), (EMG), electroencephalography (EEG), and other signals enable communication between the human body systems. Utilizing communicating with robots plays a crucial role in robot-assisted neurorehabilitation. This systematic review synthesizes 44 peer-reviewed studies, exploring how can improve exoskeleton individuals impaired upper limbs. By categorizing studies based on joints, sensor systems, control methodologies, we offer comprehensive overview network applications this field. Our findings demonstrate that networks, such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Radial Basis Function (RBFNNs), forms significantly contribute patient-specific by enabling adaptive learning personalized therapy. CNNs motion intention estimation accuracy, while LSTM capture temporal muscle activity patterns real-time rehabilitation. RBFNNs human–robot interaction adapting individual movement patterns, leading more efficient highlights potential revolutionize limb rehabilitation, improving motor recovery patient outcomes both clinical home-based settings. It also recommends future direction customizing existing applications.

The increase in the number of elderly patients with degenerative diseases has brought additional medical and financial pressures, which are adding to burden on society. development sports rehabilitation robotics (SRR) is becoming increasingly sophisticated at technical level its application; however, few studies have analyzed how it works effective aiding rehabilitation, fewer individualized exercise programs been developed for patients. purpose this study was analyze working methods effects different types SRR then suggest feasibility applying enhance physical abilities diseases. researcher’s team searched 633 English-language journal articles, had published over past five years, they selected 38 them a narrative literature review. Our summary found following: (1) current generally classified as end-effector robots, smart walkers, intelligent robotic rollators, exoskeleton robots—exoskeleton robots were be most widely used. (2) include assistant tools main intermediaries—i.e., assist participate; dominate sensors myoelectric-driven promote patient participation. (3) Better recovery perceived when using than achieved through traditional single-movement methods, especially strength, balance, endurance, coordination. However, there no significant improvement their speed or agility after SRR.
