Abstrakt: Due to the aging of the population or diseases, the number of patients with lower limb disorders has increased, causing social concern. Scholars have designed and developed advanced robotic lower limb orthoses, which can guide patients to perform reasonable rehabilitation training with correct limb postures, enhance their daily life participation and quality of life, and help them recover quickly. In recent years, a large number of new and advanced orthopedic equipment have been developed, which require a systematic summary analysis and comparison. This article reviewed typical newly developed, robotic lower limb orthoses and their use effects, as well as the advanced theories and technologies for their applications, and systematically discussed the problems in the research, design, testing, use, and popularization of robotic lower limb orthoses, and predicted their development direction in the future research and design, to enhance the reliability, convenience, and protection functions of orthotic equipment, make its functions closer to life, and give full play to the initiative of patients in the process of rehabilitation training, and reduce costs. Robotic lower limb orthoses is poised for even greater success and development in the future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
