Using FES Cycling in Restorative Therapy for Persons with Mobility Challenges

The FES bike software monitors, detects and shows the amount of contribution by the user’s own muscles in producing the cycling movement, allowing his therapists to see how responsive his muscles are to the electrical stimulation. With that data, the FES bike activates the corresponding motor support, which ensures that the user is able to perform the purposeful cycling movement successfully even if his muscle contractions are not strong enough to move the foot pedals.
