Statement of Work

General Description

Technical Specifications

Gait track needs to be Zero-G name brand specific. Zero G provides a functionality that other gait systems do not provide. Zero G has a trolley system that always stays directly above the patient while walking or performing any functional activities. Other robotic gait systems have a trolley system that lags behind the patient creating a lag/drag on the patient. The drag can create compensatory movements and not replicate ideal functional movements that we are striving for in rehab. The Zero G is a system that allows true/ideal functional gait, and other movement patterns including bending to pick something off the floor and stepping over objects.Â
