Project number:

Grant:
THE SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNOLOGICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL OF TURKEY (TUBITAK – 1071 International Collaboration Project with Poland)
Aim:
The main objective of the SmartEx-Twin project is to conduct research into the possibilities of improving quality, efficiency and accessibility of motor rehabilitation exercises using assistive mechatronic/robotic devices through the use of the latest advanced ICT solutions. The project will develop and build, in the form of a technology demonstrator, a lightweight and portable lower limb rehabilitation device for people after strokes or with orthopaedic conditions. The terms of use and remote online access will enable it to be used in a home environment. The use of VR technology and a virtual twin will allow exercises to be planned and supervised by a physiotherapist who will be physically distant from the patient. The reading during exercise, archiving and processing of biological signals such as EMG and EEG will enable the monitoring and evaluation of rehabilitation effects and the remote implementation of training modifications. The demonstrator will be subjected to functional testing under laboratory conditions and will be presented to potential users and interested medical device manufacturers.
