Abstract

In recent years, lower limb rehabilitation exoskeleton robots have been widely used in patients with lower limb movement disorders caused by neurological injuries and other disorders to provide long-lasting and standardized rehabilitation training assistance, and have therefore attracted the attention of the market and many researchers. Currently, the lower limb rehabilitation exoskeleton technology is relatively mature, but how to design more intelligent and personalized lower limb rehabilitation exoskeleton machines is still a significant problem. Through literature research, this paper compares and analyzes different types of lower limb rehabilitation exoskeletons in terms of their different structural forms, drive modes, and control strategies, to understand their advantages and disadvantages as well as their applicability, and puts forward an outlook on the development of lower limb rehabilitation exoskeletons in the future. Eventually, through the discussion and summary, we conclude that the future of lower limb rehabilitation exoskeleton robots will be developed in the direction of lightweight, safe, intelligent, etc., to provide rehabilitation patients with more efficient and perfect rehabilitation assistance services.
