Robot physical therapist helps people walk again after a stroke

Artificial intelligence is helping people regain their mobility after certain neurological injuries. A robotic harness controlled by a neural network offers tailored treatment that has immediately improved their ability to walk normally. To avoid persistent difficulties walking after a stroke or spinal injury, walking assistance is crucial. But this is a slow process that, if done wrong, can lead to a permanently impaired gait. In the past, several physiotherapists were needed to physically support and guide each person through the process of learning to walk again.
