Rehabilitative engineering solutions employ technological and engineering innovations to improve rehabilitation outcomes for patients with disabilities. These solutions include adaptive devices like prosthetics, orthotics, and assistive robots that support physical mobility and functional independence. Advanced devices, such as brain-computer interfaces, enable patients to interact with their environment through thought-based control, which is particularly useful for those with severe paralysis. Rehabilitative engineering is a rapidly evolving field, developing tools that not only restore basic functions but also enhance patients' abilities to lead productive lives post-injury.
