About

Dr. Chatchawan Lakkhananukun is a dedicated researcher in the field of rehabilitation robotics, with a primary focus on developing assistive technologies for children with neurological disorders. His most notable contribution is the design and development of a paediatric robotic gait trainer specifically tailored for children with cerebral palsy (CP), as detailed in his highly cited 2015 paper. This work introduces an innovative H-frame, timing-belt driven, two-degree-of-freedom system that provides targeted gait training to help improve walking patterns in young patients. With 7 citations, this foundational study has influenced subsequent research in paediatric neurorehabilitation. Dr. Lakkhananukun’s research integrates mechanical design, control systems, and clinical application, aiming to make robotic therapy accessible and effective for children. His work represents a meaningful step toward addressing the unique challenges of paediatric gait rehabilitation, offering hope for enhanced mobility and quality of life for children with CP.
