Abstract
The aim of this project is to design and build a novel two degrees of freedom mechanical apparatus that will enable the investigations into the feasibility of unsupported standing of the paraplegic subjects. The abilities of a larger group of paraplegic subjects to maitain balance without using their hands but solely by means of voluntary and reflex trunk movements while standing in the apparatus, will be investigated. We will also investigate therapeutic effects of prolonged exercise standing in the apparatus.
