Helping Stroke Survivors Back on Their Feet: Sensory Device Aids Walking
  Rehabilitation
From: Medical Design Technology - 05/26/2016

Health researchers at Manchester Metropolitan University are leading the
development of a new haptic device - technology that communicates via
vibrations - to aid walking therapy for stroke survivors.

They are working with the Open University and Manchester-based technology
firm Lucid Innovation to develop the device.

The device, worn by the individual, would sense the symmetry of walking and
provide vibrations to cue the wearer to improve how they are walking.
