Rehabilitation-assisting apparatus
First Claim
1. A rehabilitation-assisting apparatus comprising:
- at least one step-information sensing unit to be worn on a user'"'"'s lower limb, wherein the step-information sensing unit senses and generates step information of the user, wherein the step-information sensing unit detects distance, wherein when the step-information sensing unit senses that a distance between a neighboring object and the user'"'"'s lower limb is less than a distance threshold, a close-proximity signal is generated and included in the step information of the user;
an alert-signal generating unit; and
a processing unit building connections with the step-information sensing unit and the alert-signal generating unit, the processing unit receives the step information of the user from the step-information sensing unit, wherein when the processing unit receives the step information with the close-proximity signal, the processing unit determines that the user is not walking appropriately, and the processing unit drives the alert-signal generating unit to generate an alert signal.

Abstract
A rehabilitation-assisting apparatus is provided in this disclosure. The rehabilitation-assisting apparatus includes at least one step-information sensing unit, an alert-signal generating unit and a processing unit. The step-information sensing unit can be worn on a user'"'"'s lower limb. The step-information sensing unit senses and generates step information of the user. The processing unit builds connections with the step-information sensing unit and the alert-signal generating unit. The processing unit determines if the user is walking appropriately according to the step information of the user. The processing unit drives the alert-signal generating unit to generate an alert signal when the user is not walking appropriately.
