Abstract

In this research, to evaluate the effectiveness of walking support system "Walk-Mate" based as a Co-creation system, we applied this system to a hemiparetic stroke patient. We analyzed it from the temporal and kinematic viewpoints. The results revealed the improvement of symmetry between right and left legs and the gaining of walking function by the side of paralysis, suggesting the effectiveness of Walk-Mate system.
