In our lab we have developed the "Rutgers Ankle" Rehabilitation Interface which is a robotic ankle rehabilitation device designed for at-home use and Internet-based remote monitoring by therapists. Its quantitative remote evaluation capabilities are designed to permit less-frequent visits to the therapist. As a virtual-reality haptic interface, it allows patients to interact with motivating virtual environments as they exercise.
