Abstract: Globally, 15 million people are affected by stroke every year, making it the leading cause of motor disability [1], [2].Although a significant portion fully recovers, a tiny percentage does so [3].One answer to the issue of medical rehabilitation is robotic rehabilitation, a quickly expanding area that sees the creation of numerous new items each.The lack of qualified medical professionals, lengthy and intricate procedures, and the high demand for quality healthcare all contribute to this problem [4], [5].A stroke is defined as a neurological deficit attributed to an acute focal injury of the central nervous system occurring on a vascular basis [6].A stroke occurs when blood arteries become blocked, resulting in bleeding and a lack of oxygen flow to the brain [7].Stroke is historically termed cerebrovascular accident (CVA), however, Burns et al. [8] stated that the term "cerebrovascular accident" (CVA) is outdated and should be avoided as it implies that stroke is an accident.About ten minutes is the maximum time the brain can function normally without glucose or oxygen [9].The paralysis of a limb or limb on one side of the body is a common symptom of this condition, which happens when the brain region on the opposite side stops working.When problems arise with the lower limbs, rehabilitation is key to getting back on the feet and walking normally.There are a variety of rehabilitation treatment options that aim to enhance walking abilities [10].Many patients feel better within the first six months following a stroke.The road to recovery becomes more winding but not impossible [11].Stroke significantly impacts Activities of Daily Living (ADL), with many patients experiencing dependency on personal care, mobility, and communication [12].ADL dependency within the first two days post-stroke can predict dependency at 3 and 12 months [13].ADLs in stroke patients refer to essential self-care tasks that are often impaired post-stroke.It is now possible to begin an intervention program to retrain the ability to do ADLs with forceful motions and functional trajectories.An actual task
