Noda Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab researching rehabilitation exoskeleton robots that let patients feel they are moving on their own.
AboutAbout the lab
Supporting rehabilitation with exoskeleton robots.
The Noda Lab researches assistive technology that supports the recovery of motor function after stroke through neurorehabilitation using exoskeleton robots.
The lab conducts medical-engineering collaboration research that demonstrates, in hospitals and rehabilitation facilities, assistive technology that lets patients feel they are moving on their own.
The research is carried out at the Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute International (ATR) in Keihanna Science City, Kyoto Prefecture.
The lab is open to students entering at the graduate school level.
Key terms
- Exoskeleton robot
- A robot that assists movement during rehabilitation. It is also used to capture the characteristics of the body during assistance as numerical values
- Neurorehabilitation
- Rehabilitation of the nervous system. It targets conditions such as motor paralysis caused by central nervous system disorders
ResearchResearch themes
To support the recovery of motor function after stroke more effectively, the lab aims to realize assistance with the natural force modulation of a skilled therapist. ATR's Brain Robot Interface Lab, where the research is carried out, works on advancing and improving the efficiency of neurorehabilitation using exoskeleton robots for motor paralysis caused by central nervous system disorders.
Making rehabilitation more efficient with exoskeleton robots and AI
At ATR's Brain Robot Interface Lab, the lab is developing technology that quantifies the characteristics of the body during assistance with an exoskeleton robot, turns the intuition and experience of skilled therapists into robot parameters, and uses AI to optimize intervention parameters. It is also developing a technical foundation for transmitting these body characteristics remotely over the internet for use in remote rehabilitation.
Assistance that makes patients feel they are moving on their own
The lab is working on research to demonstrate, in hospitals and rehabilitation facilities, assistive technology developed in a medical-engineering collaboration project that lets patients feel they are moving on their own. By realizing transparent assistive force, it aims to improve the quality of robot-assisted rehabilitation.
