How can biomechanics technology help researchers evaluate changes in gait following rehabilitation?
In a 2025 study published in Frontiers in Rehabilitation Sciences, researchers in Japan investigated changes in walking mechanics and muscle activity in three children with cerebral palsy following robot-assisted gait training.
Using Noraxon's 3D motion capture and Ultium EMG systems, researchers collected synchronized kinematic and muscle activity data to evaluate changes in lower-limb movement patterns.
Following training, all three participants demonstrated measurable changes in joint angles and muscle activity, highlighting the role of integrated biomechanics measurements in evaluating rehabilitation outcomes.
