帕金森病（PD）和基底神经节功能障碍损害运动时机，这种损害导致步态不稳和福尔斯。PD的步态障碍可以以多种方式发生，包括festinating（加速）步态，缓慢拖曳步态或高度可变的随机步幅定时。作者的研究小组正在研究一种基于人与人之间协作步态的步行辅助系统，用于运动康复。在这一章中，他们介绍了PD的步态干扰，特别是festinating步态，他们介绍了一个人与一个虚拟的机器人之间的人际同步仿真系统，其中夹带的步态定时的人和机器人在交叉反馈的方式，通过提出听觉刺激，表明合作伙伴的脚与地面接触的时间。在一项评估使用该系统行走的初步研究中，PD患者的步态得到改善，并观察到遗留效应。这些结果显示，人际互动对于运动能力的福利支援似乎是有效的。DOI：10.4018/978-1-4666-2113-8.ch005
Parkinson’s disease (PD) and basal ganglia dysfunction impair movement timing, and this impairment leads to gait instability and falls. Gait disturbances of PD can occur in numerous ways, including festinating (accelerating) gait, slow shuffling gait, or highly variable random stride-timing. The authors’ research group is studying an ambulatory assistive system that is based on the cooperative gait among human beings for locomotion rehabilitation. In this chapter, they introduce gait disturbances of PD, especially festinating gait, and they introduce an Interpersonal synchrony emulation system between a human and a virtual biped robot, which entrains the gait timings of the human and the robot in a cross-feedback manner by presenting auditory stimulation that indicates the timing of the partner’s foot contact with the ground. In a pilot study that evaluated walking with the system, the festinating gaits of the PD patients were improved, and carry-over effects were observed. These results suggested that the interpersonal interaction seems to be effective for the welfare support of locomotive ability. DOI: 10.4018/978-1-4666-2113-8.ch005
