Innovative development of successful rehabilitation parallel robots at the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania

The research project “Innovative Approaches regarding Rehabilitation and Assistive Robotics for Healthy Ageing - AgeWell”, implemented by the CESTER research center, approached an open problem in the healthcare of the aging population of Europe, committing to provide viable solutions for the therapy of patients with neuromotor deficit. AgeWell managed to exploit the complementary competences of medical robotics specialists and physicians alike, and with the additional support of a foreign specialist, the team developed competences in robotic-assisted rehabilitation.
