Functional electrical stimulation platform

The RehaStimTM (HASOMAED, Germany) eight channel biphasic noninvasive stimulator (see Figure.1, Figure.2) is used for Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) which is defined as the generation of functional movements such as standing, walking, or grasping by means of a modulated electric current. The device allows an on-line regulation of the stimulation signal parameters that are: the frequency, the amplitude and the pulse-width.

Technical Details:
Current : 0……126 mA in 2mA step
Pulse-width : 0,20……… 500 µS
Frequency : 0, …… 70 Hz
Serial Ports : USB
