“…The proposed system does not require a physical therapist during the treatment process, making it possible for the ankle joint to self-recover [8]. Zhetenbayev et al provided a portable handheld device for ankle movement training during rehabilitation [9]. This portable device is based on the extensive movement of the human ankle provided in rehabilitation.…”

Ankle joint flexion and extension movements play an important role in the rehabilitation training of patients who have been injured or bedridden for a long time before and after surgery. Accurately guiding patients to perform ankle flexion and extension movements can significantly reduce deep vein thromboembolism. Currently, most ankle rehabilitation devices focus on assisting patients with ankle flexion and extension movements, and there is a lack of devices for effectively monitoring these movements. In this study, we designed an ankle joint flexion and extension movement-monitoring device based on a pressure sensor. It was composed of an STM32 microcontroller, a pressure sensor, an HX711A/D conversion chip, and an ESP8266 WiFi communication module. The value of the force and the effective number of ankle joint flexion and extension movements were obtained. An experimental device was designed to verify the accuracy of the system. The maximum average error was 0.068 N; the maximum average relative error was 1.7%; the maximum mean-squared error was 0.00464 N. The results indicated that the monitoring device had a high accuracy and could effectively monitor the force of ankle flexion and extension movements, ultimately ensuring that the patient could effectively monitor and grasp the active ankle pump movement.

“…Exoskeletons have been around for decades, starting from the development of full-body exoskeletons for military purposes in the 1960s. Since then, exoskeleton technology has advanced rapidly, and a variety of exoskeletons have been developed to improve mobility, strength, and endurance in individuals with mobility impairments, sports athletes, and military personnel [11,12].…”
