New EU project Rehabilitation based on Hybrid neuroprosthesis (REHYB) for ITR

This four-year research project on rehabilitation based on hybrid neuroprosthesis is funded by the European Commission under the HORIZON2020 programme. The project is coordinated at ITR by Prof. Sandra Hirche.

The ReHyb project designs an upper-body hybrid neuroprosthesis using cooperative control strategies based on data-driven system identification and probabilistic estimation techniques for the internal human states, namely digital twin of a user. Our goal is a patient-specific, assist-as-needed device which maximises the training efficiency during home based rehabilitation as means of serious gaming, and offers a pleasant user experience by supporting patients in daily life activities.
