Effect of Joint Friction Compensation on a “Muscle-First” Motor-Assisted Hybrid Neuroprosthesis

Effect of Joint Friction Compensation on a “Muscle-First” Motor-Assisted Hybrid Neuroprosthesis

This study assessed the metabolic energy consumption of walking with the external components of a “Muscle-First” Motor Assisted Hybrid Neuroprosthesis (MAHNP), which combines implanted neuromuscular stimulation with a motorized exoskeleton. The “Muscle-First” approach prioritizes generating motion w...
