Abstract
We proposed a Perception Assisting Robot TechnologY system (PARTY), which suggests significant effect on walking ability. However, the rehab effect did not last so long after taking off the PARTY. We found that this was because most of the patients often use their visual feedback instead of proprioceptive feedback which they trained from the PARTY. Relying too much on visual feedback may accidentally make false steps or releasing objects which may cause some serious accidents. Therefore, this paper describes how to avoid the visual-feedback-dependency and increasing the natural usage of proprioceptive feedback.
