About

Junyeong Lee is a rising researcher in rehabilitation robotics, focusing on assistive technologies for balance and gait recovery. His work centers on integrating biofeedback, haptic interfaces, and wearable orthoses to improve motor function in individuals with neurological impairments. In a key 2022 study, Lee evaluated a transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS)-based biofeedback system combined with a trunk rehabilitation robot, demonstrating that vibrotactile feedback and perturbation warnings can significantly enhance seated balance under unstable conditions—offering a promising alternative for patients with visual deficits. This work has garnered 7 citations, reflecting its relevance to adaptive rehabilitation strategies. Lee also contributed to the development of a gait assistance system pairing a haptic cane with an active knee orthosis (AKO), addressing post-stroke gait training by providing bodyweight support and assistive torque. With 4 citations, this study highlights his efforts to tackle instability and asymmetry in robotic gait aids. By exploring multimodal feedback and wearable robotics, Lee is advancing patient-centered solutions that bridge sensory limitations and motor recovery, marking him as an emerging voice in neurorehabilitation engineering.
