Robot-assisted rehabilitation is expected to reduce locomotor limitations of children and young adults with Cerebral Palsy (CP). However, to achieve this result, it is essential that the robot is transparent, allowing the user to move freely, and generate joint torques only when the exoskeleton joints significantly deviate from physiological gait patterns. Nevertheless, the development of transpar...
